He focuses his practice on railroad accidents, trucking accidents, and complex transportation injury cases, advocating for individuals and families affected by serious negligence.

This compensation may include medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering beyond what traditional workers’ compensation systems cover.

Committed to mentoring future trial lawyers, John taught trial advocacy and litigation skills as an adjunct professor at Georgia State University College of Law for over 15 years.
