Jason Crawford has been a trial lawyer for thirty-three years. He has litigated and tried product liability, medical malpractice, trucking, business tort, and class action cases in Georgia and in venues across the country. Although he has obtained more than a billion dollars in verdicts, judgments, and recoveries, he is motivated by the impact his work has on the lives of real people. He has only represented people who can actually hug him, not legal fictions (corporations) that cannot.
Jason started his career at a large national trial litigation firm working on post-collision-fuel-fed-fire cases against General Motors, rollover cases against Suzuki, Toyota, and Ford, tread separation cases against Firestone and Goodyear, and defective seat back and door latch cases against all three of the major US automakers.
Since co-founding his current law firm, Mr Crawford has continued his product liability practice, while successfully handling cases involving the wrongful death of babies during and immediately after delivery, failure to diagnose internal bleeding and failure to recognize burgeoning fatal cardiac conditions in minors and young adults.
Mr Crawford handled a class action lawsuit against GE Life that resulted in a recovery of more than $450 million.
Jason also has published ten law review articles in the Georgia Law Review, the Mercer Law Review, and the Tort & Insurance Law Journal.
Before beginning his practice, Mr Crawford graduated third in his class from the University of Georgia School of Law, where he also received a dozen American Jurisprudence awards for obtaining the top grade in the class.
