Alexander Law Firm, P.C. has represented individuals, families, and businesses in Georgia state and federal courts for more than four decades. The firm's practice spans personal injury, civil litigation, criminal defense, probate, and a number of additional matters set out below. Engagements are accepted on a selective basis to ensure each client receives the personal attention of the attorney handling the file.
Founded in Atlanta in 1983, Alexander Law Firm, P.C. has built its practice on three principles: thorough preparation, direct attorney involvement at every stage, and honest counsel — including, when appropriate, the candid recommendation that another lawyer or another path is better suited to the matter at hand.
The firm represents plaintiffs and defendants in state and federal courts and provides counsel to families, individuals, and closely held businesses across Georgia. Matters range from personal injury and wrongful-death litigation to probate administration, criminal defense, and routine corporate work. Each new client speaks first with an attorney — not an intake center, not a chatbot — and that attorney remains the principal point of contact throughout the engagement.
Over more than forty years the firm has earned a reputation for measured, well-prepared advocacy and for the quieter wins that come from carefully drafted documents and well-counseled clients. The work suits the firm, and the firm continues to take it on selectively.
The following list is representative rather than exhaustive. Inquiries concerning related matters are welcome; where the firm is not the appropriate fit, a referral will be provided.
Automobile, trucking, and pedestrian collisions; premises liability; wrongful death. Contingency-fee engagements available on qualifying matters.

Calls during business hours reach the firm directly. After hours, voicemail and email are monitored for urgent injury and criminal matters.
Contacting the firm by phone or email does not, by itself, create an attorney-client relationship. Please do not include confidential or time-sensitive information until an engagement has been established in writing.
A brief set of answers to the questions the firm receives most often. Questions not addressed below are welcome on the initial call, which is at no charge.
Yes. There is no charge for the initial consultation. If the firm believes another attorney or a different course of action better serves the matter, that recommendation will be made on the call.
The firm undertakes most personal injury and wrongful-death matters on a contingency-fee basis, meaning no attorney's fee is owed unless the firm recovers compensation for the client. Out-of-pocket case expenses are disclosed and documented in a written engagement letter before work begins.
The general statute of limitations for personal injury claims in Georgia is two years from the date of injury under O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33. Shorter deadlines apply to claims against governmental entities and to certain other matters. Prompt consultation is recommended because evidence and witness recollection deteriorate over time.
Obtain medical attention, call law enforcement and request that a report be prepared, document the scene with photographs, and exchange identifying and insurance information with the other driver. Decline to provide a recorded statement to the opposing insurer until you have consulted with counsel.
The majority of cases resolve prior to trial. The firm nevertheless prepares each matter as if it will be tried, because that preparation is what produces favorable settlements and verdicts when trial becomes necessary. Each client is advised of available options — settlement, mediation, arbitration, or trial — and the trade-offs of each.
Yes. The firm represents clients throughout the State of Georgia and, by arrangement, in matters with multi-state issues. The firm is admitted in Georgia state courts and the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia.
