Firm Information
Overview
We are Georgia attorneys based in Columbus and have served injured parties for decades. Over the years, Butler Prather has represented a wide range of clients. These include seniors in nursing homes, whistleblowers working for big corporations and victims of car crashes.
Our Law Office Has An Impressive Record
When it comes to positive cases and settlement sizes, we are one of the most accomplished legal offices in Georgia. These are some of the cases we have won over the decades:
• $4,200,000 against Georgia Kraft Company in 1982
• $30,256,768 against Ocilla Industries in 1988
• $454,296,000 against Six Flags Over Georgia in 1998
• $13,000,000 against Ford Motor Company in 2005
• $150,000,000 against Chrysler Group in 2015
• $280,000,000 against Schnitzer Steel Industries in 2019
Our Law Office Puts Our Clients First
Butler Prather is so dedicated to serving injured parties, that we generally do not take on cases representing corporations in cases like these. This reduces the possibility of a conflict of interest that might otherwise arise when law firms try to represent both sides of the aisle.
Our law office also aims to make our services as accessible as possible to those who need them. Efforts include free initial consultations and services in Spanish.
