Biography

BIOGRAPHY

Harlan H. F. Wood is a trial lawyer specializing in representing the injured. Mr. Wood started his law career as an Assistant District Attorney in the Blue Ridge Judicial Circuit. There, he prosecuted hundreds of criminal cases. In addition to nearly 100 jury trials, Mr. Wood handled countless motions and hearings that accompany a case. Through this practice Mr. Wood learned the art of advocating for those victimized. The transition from criminal practice to civil practice was both natural and seamless—the major change being the applicable statute. In civil practice Mr. Wood advocates for those who are victims of negligence, and his more than twenty years of courtroom experience serves his clients well.

Mr. Wood is a retired U. S. Army Judge Advocate. His military career spanned 24 years, the last 15 of which were as a military lawyer (JAG). He has the added experience of representing clients in various military courtroom settings. While military rules of evidence differ from state rules, advocacy is honed through experience, and Harlan's diverse experiences as a lawyer offer a unique perspective in Harlan's representation of clients.

Harlan, his wife Elizabeth, and their dog Tallulah live in Ormewood Park in Atlanta.
