Shiver Hamilton Campbell, LLC

A 2002 Dodge Ram 15-passenger van carrying 16 women from the We Are Living Proof sober-living program rolled over and caught fire on I-85 at the I-985 split in Gwinnett County on April 24, 2021, killing seven and injuring nine others. Families and survivors sued the van's driver, Chrysler and parent company Stellantis, the group home, and two repair shops, alleging a rollover-prone design, a defective steering system, and a fuel system that let gasoline ignite after impact. The claims settled in 2024 for a combined $162,000,000, described as the largest settlement from a single-vehicle wreck in Georgia history. Families and survivors were represented by several firms, including Shiver Hamilton Campbell and Beasley Allen.

A DeKalb County State Court jury awarded $140 million on December 20, 2023 to the estate of George Hughes, a 63-year-old tenant who burned to death in a March 2017 fire at the Venetian Hills Apartments in southwest Atlanta, finding the landlord's fire safety failures caused his death, but the judgment did not stand: on October 31, 2025 the Georgia Court of Appeals vacated it, holding that the jury was wrongly instructed under general premises liability law in addition to Georgia's narrower landlord-tenant statute, and the case was remanded for a full retrial that remains pending.

Cindy Tran Huynh, a 22-year-old Army veteran riding her motorcycle through a green light in Columbus, Georgia, was killed on January 26, 2017 when a tractor-trailer driven by George Hooks for MDV SpartanNash turned left across her path. Hooks and MDV SpartanNash admitted the crash was entirely the driver's fault before trial, leaving a Muscogee County State Court jury to decide damages alone. On March 20, 2019, the jury awarded $27 million: $22 million for the full value of Huynh's life and $5 million for the pain and suffering she endured before she died. Alan Hamilton and Jeff Shiver of Shiver Hamilton represented the family, with Margaret Randels of the firm and Jim Roth of the Roth Firm also on the trial team.

Mack Pitts was working as a spotter on the international terminal project at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport on June 14, 2007 when a dump truck driven by a coworker backed over him after bypassing the site's safety rules. His children and estate sued the truck's owner, A & G Trucking, Inc., and the driver, Sarah Okoro, in the State Court of DeKalb County. On October 23, 2009, a jury returned a $5,470,000 verdict for the family. A & G Trucking appealed on a single evidentiary issue, and the Georgia Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment in full on November 5, 2010. A related Georgia Supreme Court opinion later confirmed that A & G Trucking could not pay the judgment.
