Born and raised in Port Orange, Florida, Attorney Garrett Morrison has devoted his legal career to standing up for accident victims and challenging powerful insurance companies. His deep roots in the community and firsthand experience with the hardships families face after serious accidents drive his commitment to helping others navigate the complex world of personal injury law. After graduating from Spruce Creek High School, Garrett earned his Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from the University of Florida. During his time at UF, a life-changing event occurred when his mother was severely injured in a motorcycle accident caused by a driver who ran a red light. Despite the other driver admitting fault, the insurance company relentlessly contested her claim. Witnessing his mother’s struggle inspired Garrett to pursue a legal career dedicated to protecting the rights of the injured and holding insurers accountable. Garrett went on to earn his Juris Doctor from Stetson University College of Law in Gulfport, Florida, where he attended on a scholarship. While in law school, he gained valuable experience interning with Rue & Ziffra during both summers, working alongside experienced attorneys who shared his passion for client advocacy and justice. Today, Garrett is committed to fighting for those who have been wronged. He approaches every case with compassion, determination, and an unwavering belief that injured clients deserve to be treated with dignity and fairness. When he’s not advocating for his clients, Garrett enjoys fishing, spending time in nature, working out, cooking, and gardening. Whether in the courtroom or outdoors, he brings patience, focus, and perseverance to everything he does—qualities that also define his approach to representing his clients.
