About
As a personal injury trial lawyer with over 20 years experience, I have come to see the Constitution's 7th Amendment right to TRIAL BY JURY as the best protection of justice, fairness, and accountability. Despite some flaws, our American jury system is the best in the world. By way of background, I've lived in Georgia my whole life, including Savannah, Marietta, Carrollton, Atlanta, and, for the last 20 years, we've called Athens home. I graduated with high honors in history and then law from the University of Georgia and started my legal career at a large firm in Atlanta before returning to Athens to prosecute criminal cases. After about two years of criminal jury trials, I returned to private trial practice in Athens, handling all types of trial matters, including criminal, business, and personal injury cases. That provided a wide breadth of experience and perspective. For many years now, I have focused almost exclusively on personal injury and wrongful death matters throughout the State of Georgia. My family and I are members of Redeemer Presbyterian Church, and when I am not working, I enjoy being on a boat at the lake with my family or riding a mountain bike or sitting down with a good book. I'm happy to talk to potential clients about their claims for injury or the wrongful death of a loved one, whether that person or family ultimately decides to hire me or not. I firmly believe that folks should meet with an attorney in person before making the important decision of hiring an attorney. Feel free to call 706-850-9400 or send an email to set up an appoitment to meet! Once hired, my personal injury team will aggressively advocate for you start to finish.

If you are looking for an injury attorney, Blaine is exactly who you looking for. Blaine fought hard for my case... With all the attorneys I contacted he is the only one who accepted my case without hesitation. He believed we had a case from the beginning and never gave up. Blaine would answer his phone at any time of day or as soon as he possibly can and will never leave you waiting for a phone call or text. Thank you Blaine and your team for always being there and not giving up on my case. We knew from the beginning that it may take some time to fight my case and may even go as far as a jury trial. I will surely seek your advise whenever I need one and will highly recommend you to all my friends and family.
I retained Blaine's services to handle a personal injury case for me. He was very attentive to my case and treats his clients with real concern for not only the case at hand but for you as a person. He was always available when I called and his staff was great to work with throughout the case. I highly reccommend Blaine Norris.
Blaine Norris and his staff performed exceptionally on my behalf in my accident case. They were very thorough and pursued every avenue to make sure I was taken care of. They were not professional, but very personable. The fees were very reasonable and I was very satisfied with my outcome. I will not hesitate to call them again or recommend this firm to anyone.
I was struck by a large truck as a pedestrian. Mr. Norris and Krystal Christenberry were fantastic. Without a car, I had no way to get to their office to sign papers or review information. They made sure to help me. Krystal came to my house after work just so that I could sign paperwork. They did an amazing job all around. I would recommend them to anyone.
When, I suddenly and unexpectedly became a widow, Blaine Nortis believed in me and my case; and cared about me as a person. Blaine fought for me tirelessly, relentlessly and successfully , when the odds did not start in my favor.
I don't typically like "lawyers". Blaine & Brian made things easy for me, as my case was not. All the effort put in..paid off. I was never told "what I wanted to hear", was always the truth, good or bad. Would I recommend? Absolutely
I was injured in a bike accident in 2014 and ended up needing an attorney to help recuperate medical costs plus funds from the insurance companies. Blaine and his company came to the rescue in a short amount of time and began navigating the lengthy process. Although my injury was not paralyzing, it did alter my active lifestyle and he was quick to pick up on that and point it out to the insurance companies. My own insurance company was very reluctant to cooperate, but Blaine patiently negotiated back and forth with them until we both ended up finding a happy settlement. He and his company are not just a bunch of lawyers eager for blood money, they take time and energy to get to know the client and help as much as possible to ensure their lives resume to normal as best as possible. Fully recommend.
After a meager attempt by another lawyer, my auto-injury case was referred to Mr. Blaine and his worthy assistant Brian. I was amazed how they jumped in and cleaned up the mess that the other lawyer created. They are incredibly thorough and cover all the basis. Their knowledge of law, coupled with their cohesiveness is awesome. I know it seems paradoxical, but they are like warm, cuddly sharks . I highly recommend their expertise and professional wisdom. I told them several times "I'm glad that I'm not fighting against you guys!" These guys helped me to settle for a heck-of-a-lot more "0's" than what my previous attorney did. Thanks guys, thanks! They really do look out for the little guy.
Handled multiple cases that varied in scope a great deal. Has a sense of honor and duty that comes through with sincerity. The cases were pursued with vigor. When it's time to deal with reality, the issue of continuing, settling, or fighting on, we did so with a straight forward approach of the options and risks. It was always my call on the decision to go on or settle. I usually took the advise that I was given as it was based on facts not emotion. I'll call him again when the time comes.
Came to Blaine on two separate recommendations, one from a judge and one from an attorney. Going in, I felt my case was going to be nothing more than a settlement negotiation rather than an actual defense. Through his careful attention to the details of the case, Blaine was actually able to structure a fairly formidable case. This resulted in a much better position for me and a significant financial savings in the end. Blaine provides what so many people want from an attorney and fail to get. Actual advice and counsel. It was refreshing. I wholeheartedly recommend him for any type of business litigation.
