About Denise Hoying

Denise D. Hoying is an attorney at Law & Moran, Attorneys at Law, which she joined in 2017. She graduated from Vanderbilt University in 1998 with a Bachelor of Engineering in chemical engineering, then worked for several years as a practicing chemical engineer at two Fortune 500 companies. She subsequently earned her J.D. from Georgia State University College of Law in 2010, where she was a member of the Georgia State University Law Review and was admitted to the Georgia Bar. For the seven years prior to joining Law & Moran, she practiced civil litigation and insurance coverage at one of Atlanta's premier insurance defense firms.

That background gives her detailed knowledge of how insurers value and defend injury claims. At Law & Moran she represents individuals who have been injured by the negligence of others. Hoying served as one of the trial attorneys on the 2019 DeKalb County Kroger negligent-security case that produced an $81 million gross jury verdict. She has been selected to the Georgia Super Lawyers Rising Stars list.
