Attorney Information
Overview
Stefanie Drake Burford grew up in Fayetteville, Georgia, where from a young age she knew she wanted to be an Attorney. Never afraid to stand down from an argument, or stand up for those who need help, Stefanie knew fighting for the rights of accident victims was her calling.
Stefanie attended Georgia Southern University, graduating with a major in Political Science, and a minor in Justice Studies. From there, Stefanie attended the St. Thomas University School of Law in Miami, Florida, where she excelled in her legal studies and further developed her passion for the law and being a champion for the rights of others.
Now as the founder of The Stefanie Drake Burford Law Group, and for 26 years, Stefanie has passionately advocated for personal injury victims throughout Cedartown, Marietta, Metro Atlanta, and all over Georgia. With extensive experience representing families of wrongful death victims, victims of car accidents, trucking incidents, motorcycle accidents (Stefanie is a motorcycle rider), Uber/Lyft accidents, premises liability slip and fall accidents, dog bite injuries, and workers' compensation cases resulting from workplace injury, Stefanie Drake Burford and her team bring a zealous and aggressive approach to advocating for justice. Each client receives access to their own case manager, and Stefanie handles every case. You are never a number to this team of dedicated advocates.
Stefanie and her team are dedicated to fighting for your rights, offering free and flexible consultation options in person, by phone or by electronic communication to accommodate your needs, and leveraging a wealth of courtroom and mediation experience to champion your case.
In her spare time she enjoys travel, boating, riding motorcycles, scuba diving, flying (licensed pilot), and spending time with friends and family.
