Practice History

Immediately upon graduating from the University of Georgia School of Law, in 2021, Jackson tried three cases to verdict and obtained judgments totaling nearly $500,000. Jackson spent the next three years clerking at the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals, where he drafted opinions and orders in complex criminal and civil cases. In addition to his federal-appellate court experience, Jackson worked for judges of the Georgia Court of Appeals and the Georgia State-Wide Business Court, resolving cases that involved nuanced issues of Georgia law. With his unique experience growing up as a third-generation attorney, combined with the valuable insights gained from years working alongside judges in both federal and state courts, Jackson has developed a skillset that enhances any case.
