The Strickland Firm

Ryan T. Strickland built this practice on a foundation that is unusual enough to be worth explaining. Before running The Strickland Firm as a plaintiff-side personal injury operation, he spent years as a partner at an insurance defense firm, working for the major insurers that injured plaintiffs end up fighting. That background shapes how the listing reads: a lawyer who spent years building the defense playbook knows the weak points in it when he switches sides. Two offices in Georgia, one in Marietta and one in Tucker, and more than fifteen years of combined experience give the operation a credible footprint for a regional injury practice.

Motor vehicle and premises liability cases

The practice areas are wide. Motor vehicle work covers the full range: car wrecks, trucks, motorcycles, rideshare collisions, bus accidents, plus fault-specific categories like drunk driving, distracted driving, and hit-and-run. Beyond the road, The Strickland Firm handles premises liability matters such as slip and fall cases and negligent security claims tied to assaults. Catastrophic injuries involving traumatic brain damage and spinal cord injuries appear alongside wrongful death, and there are also pedestrian, scooter, and bicycle cases and claims against uninsured drivers. One outlier in the list is foreclosure work. It sits oddly inside an otherwise injury-focused menu, and anyone considering that service would want to ask directly what share of the firm's caseload it represents.

Contingency fees with intake flexibility

Fees run on contingency, meaning no payment unless the case produces a recovery. Contingency agreements are standard in this kind of practice, but The Strickland Firm pairs the model with a few intake commitments that go further. Consultations are free and offered at any hour, and the site states that someone will come to a home or a hospital room if the injured person cannot travel. For a client with a fresh spinal injury or a family member in intensive care, that is not a small thing. Most firms expect people to come to them at whatever pace recovery allows; a firm that builds intake around the opposite situation is at least reading the reality of serious injuries correctly.

Limited online review data

The Tucker location carries a perfect rating on Birdeye, but that number rests on only two reviews. Two reviews tell you next to nothing about how a complex personal injury case would go, and weighting that average too heavily would be a mistake. There are other firms sharing the Strickland name in South Carolina, Texas, and California, all separate operations entirely, so checking references requires care to avoid crediting The Strickland Firm with another practice's record. The public review footprint here is limited, and a prospective client will get a clearer picture from the firm's own description of past case types than from a two-review average.

Defense background and practice specifics

What gives The Strickland Firm listing real credibility is the specificity of the practitioner rather than any marketing polish. A named attorney with a documented defense-side history, a clearly bounded set of practice areas, two staffed offices with direct phone lines, and a fee structure that puts financial risk on the firm rather than the client: those are concrete, verifiable points. The breadth of injury categories is genuinely wide, and for a serious car, truck, or premises case in the Marietta or Tucker area, the combination of insurance-defense experience and contingency fees is a sensible pairing to investigate. The attorney's history on the defense side is the kind of credential that appears in the listing description and can be independently verified through Georgia State Bar records, which show bar admission date and any disciplinary history.

Confirm case experience in your area?

One practical note for anyone shortlisting lawyers from this entry: confirm scope at the outset. A practice that lists everything from motorcycle wrecks to foreclosure can give the impression it covers all of it equally. The right question in that initial consultation is how many cases like yours The Strickland Firm has tried and settled in the past two years, and what the outcomes looked like.

Verifying credentials and outcomes

The Strickland Firm publishes direct lines for both offices, and asking costs nothing. Go in with specific questions about your type of case, your jurisdiction, and the expected timeline. The answers to those questions will tell you far more than a two-review rating or a broad category list, and they will let you compare The Strickland Firm against other Georgia personal injury attorneys on concrete terms that reflect your specific situation. The limited review record online is a gap, but the verifiable practitioner detail and the contingency fee structure together give this listing considerably more to work with than a two-line entry with no named attorney and no stated fee model.
