01

Leadership at The Wilson PC

Since joining his father as a partner and stepping into firm leadership, Jerred has grown The Wilson PC from a local practice into a 33-person team handling personal injury and workers’ compensation matters across Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, and Illinois. That growth reflects his strength in scaling operations, building culture, and delivering high-quality legal services in multiple jurisdictions.

From the Courtroom to the C-Suite

Jerred spent four years as a trial attorney in the Office of the Public Defender for the Atlanta Judicial Circuit, where he managed a high-volume docket and built substantial courtroom and client-advocacy experience. He then practiced for four years at a statewide personal injury firm before joining his father as a partner at The Wilson PC.
