Born and raised in Savannah, W. Andrew Bowen has built a career representing people in serious personal injury and wrongful death matters. After graduating from Washington and Lee University, he earned his Juris Doctor from Mercer University’s Walter F. George School of Law in 1998. Andrew’s early legal work included representing defendants in automobile collision cases, medical negligence claims, and other injury disputes, along with work for a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Trustee. That experience gave him valuable insight into how insurance companies and defense teams approach liability and damages. Since 2001, Andrew has focused on helping individuals and families facing life-changing injuries or the loss of a loved one. He has successfully tried cases involving medical malpractice, wrongful death, and major truck, motorcycle, and car accidents. Andrew is admitted to practice in Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina, and he appears in federal courts in Georgia and South Carolina, the Court of Federal Claims in Washington, D.C., the Georgia Supreme Court and Court of Appeals, the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, and the U.S. Supreme Court. He is active in the American Bar Association’s Tort and Insurance Practice Section, serving as Vice-Chairman of the Automobile Law Committee and on the Plaintiffs’ Policy Task Force. He has also served as President of the Savannah Trial Lawyers Association and was appointed by the Supreme Court of Georgia to the State Bar’s Unlicensed Practice of Law Committee. Andrew is involved in local church leadership and alumni service, and he and his wife, Melissa Safrit Bowen, are the parents of two children.
