Experienced Personal Injury and Criminal Defense in Grant Park

A Boutique Firm with Big Results

Carey & Dobson, LLC is a well-established law firm located in the historic Grant Park neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia. Founded in 1998, the firm has served the community for over 25 years, offering a personalized alternative to the large, impersonal law factories often found in the city. Partners John Carey and Nathaniel Dobson, Jr. built the practice on the principles of accessibility, compassion, and aggressive representation. They understand that legal problems-whether a serious injury, a criminal charge, or a family estate matter-are deeply personal and stressful. That is why they ensure that every client works directly with an experienced attorney, not a case manager. This hands-on approach allows them to tailor their legal strategies to the unique needs of each individual, resulting in a track record of successful outcomes and satisfied clients.

The firm’s longevity is a testament to its effectiveness and integrity. Carey & Dobson, LLC brings a wealth of trial experience to the table, handling cases in both state and federal courts. They are known for their willingness to fight for their clients’ rights, whether that means negotiating a tough settlement with an insurance adjuster or defending a client’s freedom before a jury. The firm’s attorneys are deeply embedded in the Atlanta legal community and have earned a reputation for being tough, ethical, and knowledgeable.

One of the hallmarks of Carey & Dobson, LLC is their commitment to communication. They believe that an informed client is an empowered client. The attorneys take the time to explain the legal process in plain English, ensuring that clients understand their options at every stage.

Their goal is to provide high-quality legal representation that is both effective and accessible.

Historic Location on Boulevard

The firm operates out of a converted property on Boulevard SE, just steps away from Grant Park and Zoo Atlanta. This location offers a distinct advantage over downtown firms: easy accessibility and a more relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Clients don’t have to navigate confusing parking decks or high-security skyscrapers; they can simply pull up to the office and walk in. This setting reflects the firm’s approachable nature and its commitment to serving the people of Atlanta where they live.
