introduction
To illustrate that no case his too large or small, two of Tracy's proud moments as a trial lawyer were obtaining a jury verdict of $28,800 in a “minor impact soft tissue” case in a very conservative venue in the face of a $3500 offer of judgment and obtaining a $3.8 million verdict in a very conservative venue in a case involving buzzed driving. No case is too large and no case is too small. Every client matters.
Tracy is licensed to practice law in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee and the District of Columbia. He has represented clients in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Kansas, Arizona, Illinois and Connecticut. He is a board-certified by the National Board of Trial Advocacy, is a graduate of the Keenan Trial Institute and is constantly seeking to enhance his skills to make him a better courtroom advocate. Tracy is personally driven by his dedication to those he represents, his faith, and in the pursuit of justice. He has an AV Preeminent® rating from Martindale-Hubbell®, the highest possible peer review rating for legal excellence, ethical practice and case outcomes. He is rated 10.0 “Superb” by Avvo, and has been selected for inclusion as a member of Super Lawyers® every year from 2014 to the present.
In addition, Tracy is a a zealous advocate for injured workers. He authored a consumer rights book (now in its second edition) entitled The Injured Workers Survival Guide – The Five Mistakes That Can Wreck Your Workers’ Compensation Claim. Tracy has authored many published articles in legal periodicals and has been a frequent speaker at continuing legal education seminars.
Tracy earned his Juris Doctor degree in 1992 at the University of Alabama School of Law and his B.S. from the University of Florida College of Journalism and Communications. Between college and law school, Tracy served our country on active duty in the United States Army as an artillery officer. During law school, Tracy served in the Alabama National Guard and upon passing the bar, Tracy served as a JAGC Officer in the Alabama Army National Guard.
Tracy and his wife Susan have four children and five grandchildren. In his spare time, Tracy enjoys family, travel (he has visited all 50 states, 24 countries and 27 of 30 Major League Baseball stadiums and counting) and sports. As often as possible, Tracy plays bass guitar in his church praise band.
QUESTIONNAIRE
Insurance carriers are in business to hold on to their money. Their lawyers sometimes file an "offer of judgment," which can make the injured person who pursuing a claim actually have to pay the insurance company's fees and costs if the case turns south. In the fact of an $8,500 offer of judgment, a jury verdict in a three day trial for a rear-end car wreck was $110,000 plus $14,000 in costs.
How did you build a successful practice?By getting good results for clients, by being involved in the community, by being in leadership positions in the bar and community and by working hard everyday.
What should clients look for in a lawyer?Someone they can contact who will actually talk to them. If people call some of the big advertising firms based on a TV spot or billboard, they'll likely never speak with the talking head in the ad. I have nearly 30 years of experience in courtrooms all over Alabama and you will speak with ME.
How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?It's somewhat important but being well-respected by judges is also key.
What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?Analysis of the situation and legal advice on what steps to take
What information do you need in a free phone consultation?Name, address, phone number, email address and date of incident
What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?I really care about my clients. I fight hard for the best result and I don't take no for an answer
