Experience
Brendan Flanagan is the founder and principal attorney of Flanagan Law, P.C., an Atlanta personal injury law firm representing injured people and families throughout Georgia.
Brendan’s practice focuses on serious personal injury and wrongful death cases, including trucking accidents, car wrecks, commercial vehicle crashes, rideshare accidents involving Uber and Lyft, delivery truck accidents involving companies such as FedEx, UPS, and Amazon, premises liability claims, electrocution injuries, and catastrophic injury cases.
Flanagan Law is built for litigation, not volume. Brendan prepares serious cases for trial from the beginning, with a focus on evidence development, expert work, jury presentation, and the pressure needed to hold insurance companies and corporate defendants accountable.
The firm has recovered more than $140 million for clients through verdicts and settlements, including a $99.9 million verdict in a 2025 Fulton County wrongful death trucking case. Brendan’s results reflect the core belief behind his practice: the strongest personal injury cases are built through preparation, discipline, and a willingness to try the case when the insurance company refuses to be fair.
Brendan has represented plaintiffs his entire legal career. Before founding Flanagan Law in 2015, he trained alongside experienced personal injury trial lawyers and developed a litigation-first approach to representing injured clients. He started the firm with limited resources, a laptop, and a commitment to building cases the right way — one client, one case, and one result at a time.
Today, Brendan is known in the Georgia personal injury community as an aggressive litigator, competitive trial lawyer, and serious advocate for clients facing life-changing injuries. His goal in every case is simple: do right by the client, tell the truth clearly, and maximize the client’s recovery.
Clients work with Brendan and his team through every stage of the case, from investigation and insurance negotiations to litigation, mediation, trial preparation, and trial. He believes clients deserve plain communication, honest advice, and a lawyer who understands both the legal stakes and the human cost of serious injury.
Brendan has been selected to Super Lawyers Rising Stars each year from 2020 through 2026. He is licensed in Georgia and represents clients in personal injury and wrongful death cases across the state.
Outside the courtroom, Brendan lives in Buckhead with his family. His background, work ethic, and commitment to family shape the way he represents clients: with preparation, loyalty, and personal attention.
