We rewrite the odds for the little guy.
Dean Thaxton is a premiere plaintiff-side litigation firm with offices in the southeastern United States. Our elite trial attorneys fight for accountability from major corporations and other powerful institutions and have recovered millions on behalf of clients.
We represent individuals from all walks of life who have suffered unlawful discrimination or a catastrophic injury in the workplace or from unsafe products, individuals whose civil or human rights have been denied, and courageous whistleblowers who report fraud or misconduct.
Dean Thaxton has significant experience defending the rights of injured workers across Georgia. If you’ve been hurt on the job and have lost wages for more than seven days, it’s essential you seek legal representation to protect your rights.
If you’ve been injured because someone else didn’t do the right thing, Dean Thaxton can help. Whether it’s an injury arising from a car accident, an unsafe premise, or a dangerous product, we have tremendous experience helping clients navigate the challenges of health care access, medical billing, and missed work. We seek full policy limits as quickly as possible and sue insurance companies for bad faith when they fail to pay limits timely, which can lead to excess policy limits settlements or verdicts in certain circumstances.
Dean Thaxton has a robust commercial litigation practice defending uninsured businesses involved in complex or novel legal disputes, with retainers starting at $10,000. Dean Thaxton’s attorneys bill $450 by the hour and $250 for non-lawyer professionals. Under this banner, the firm handles cases that do not fit our contingency model, such as collections, injunctions, probate litigation, contract litigation, and equitable relief.
We have a robust contingency or mixed-fee employment practice that handles unpaid wages and overtime, discrimination (including race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, disability, and pregnancy), sexual harassment, hostile work environment, failure to accommodate, and labor trafficking. Additionally, we have dealt with employers who hire and exploit undocumented workers.
We mediate complex cases of any of the types listed above and specialize in mediating disputes between law firms, particularly fee disputes in the event of a predecessor-successor law firm for a particular client.
Dean Thaxton supports high-volume plaintiff-side law firms that serve communities of need in complex and hard-fought cases but require additional resources and creative problem-solving.
