About Tyler
Biography
I was born and raised outside of Augusta, Georgia. After graduating from UGA with two majors in Financial Planning and Consumer Economics, I decided to attend John Marshall School of Law. At John Marshall, I was a staff member of law review, was the treasurer of the Sports & Entertainment Law Society, and even founded the John Marshall Softball Club. While I wasn’t playing sports, I was clerking with the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office. Prior to joining The Wright Firm, L.L.P., I worked at Clark & Washington, LLC which is the largest bankruptcy filer in the State of Georgia.
I am a member of both the State Bar of Georgia and the State Bar of Texas. He focuses solely on issues relating to Bankruptcy at our firm, and it was a natural fit given my educational and professional experience. At the firm, I am known for being an aggressive advocate for my clients and my extensive bowtie collection.
My wife and I live in Hewitt with our German Shorthaired Pointer, Walker. I am a converted Texas Rangers and Dallas Mavericks fan while holding true to rooting on my Atlanta Braves, Georgia Bulldogs, Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta Hawks.
