Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.I was involved in a accident in West Atlanta, So I called some of the Atlanta lawyers that advertise on Tv and the radio none of them would take my case. So I called around and found Stephen Garner. He called back within ten minutes and became my attorney and the case was settled very quickly. Take my advice if you want the best accident attorney in Georgia, call Stephen Garner,you will be glad you did.
Mr. Garner and his team was very helpful with helping me win my case , without them it wouldn't have happened. I recommend them to anyone who has issues.
Stephen Garner is an excellent attorney who has years of experience. With his experience, he brings wisdom and discernment coupled with a calm demeanor. He is very thorough, makes sure his clients are comfortable with all of the proceedings, and ensures that everyone involved understands each aspect of the case and proceedings. He is very flexible by being willing to do face-to-face meetings or by conducting digital meetings. He is also very accommodating when it comes to exchanging necessary paperwork. Stephen went above and beyond in all aspects, and we would highly recommend him.
When it became necessary to retain counsel to address my wife’s disability claim arising out of an Alzheimer’s diagnosis, I spent several days reaching out to people I know in the legal community asking for their input and guidance in finding the best possible attorney to champion her cause. I made calls to four separate individuals and without any doubt I now know why all four recommended that I hire Mr. Stephen Garner. When Mr. Garner initially met with us it took only a matter of minutes for him to put my wife totally at ease with his compassionate and genuinely sincere approach in answering her questions and explaining to her what the process moving forward would be like. His patience in making certain she really understood everything was remarkable. He treated her as if she were a member of his own family . Combine this compassion with his incredible skill and knowledge of social security disability law and you have the best of the best... Mr . Stephen Garner.
I highly recommend Murphy & Garner for your legal needs. I have rated them honestly as to how they dealt with me and my case.
I had an accident with the company that I worked for and they wouldn't accept responsibility and I had to retain the services of Mr. Garner. Like usual, it took some time and negotiations but in the end I was very satisfied with the settlement. I was amazed at Mr. Garners knowledge and expertise of the laws associated with Workers Comp and believe me they are very complicated. Throughout the process there was never a time that I couldn't contact him if I had a question or needed him. He always returned my calls promptly and this is a rarity among attorneys. He even provided his cell phone number if I needed something after hours. Not only was Mr. Garner very professional, so was his office assistants. For anyone needing an attorney I would highly recommend Mr. Garner.
I would recommend this attorney office to anyone. Mr. Garner was very knowledgeble and had the expertise to handle my case. He and his assistant were always prompt in returning my calls with any questions I had. I would definitely use him again.
Stephen Garner is an exceptional individual of tremendous character whom I would recommend freely without any reservation to anyone seeking knowledgeable and successful experience representing clients in their disability or mediation claims. Stephen keeps his clients inform throughout the entire process and is excellent in his communication with his clients. Stephen is the most highly regarded attorney in my community. It is unfortunate that I have had a lot of experience with attorneys in my lifetime but very fortunate to have Stephen Garner represent me. Without a doubt, my experience with Stephen was the most sincerely pleasurable legal experiences I have ever had .
Working with Stephen Garner was nothing short of amazing. After getting into a car accident I didn’t know where to turn. I am glad I made the decision the reach out to Stephen. Not only did he make the process easy, he worked diligently to complete the case in a timely manner. I am very happy with how everything turned out and I would recommend Stephen if you are looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable lawyer.
Stephen Garner and his entire staff represent honesty, integrity and are the most professional people I've ever dealt with. They are five Star in every way and excellent in communicating any updates to your case. I am so glad I let them deal with the problem insurance company I had to deal with and highly recommend them for any of your legal needs! Thank you for making this so easy for me!
