She serves a wide variety of clients, both individuals and businesses. Her focus areas include: school systems, government-appointed investigations, consumers, professional engineers, professional appraisers, medical professionals and non-profit organizations.

Prior to joining the firm, Keri served as an associate with Nix & Graddock, where she focused on cases involving medical malpractice and plaintiff’s personal injury. Keri is a member of the Georgia Bar Association and the DeKalb Bar Association and is admitted to practice in all Georgia trial courts, the Georgia Court of Appeals, the Georgia Supreme Court, the Federal District Court for the Northern District of Georgia and the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit. She obtained a B.S. in Psychology from Shorter College before earning her J.D. at Georgia State University College of Law.

Of the many satisfactions inherent in her position, Keri particularly enjoys the variety: “I love the different types of cases and challenges I work on every day. I am constantly learning something new and it never gets boring.” Aside from her daily legal practice, Keri contributes her professional skills to assist the less fortunate in the community and in fact decided to pursue a career in law with that goal in mind. She says, “I wanted to advocate for and improve the lives of people who would not otherwise have a voice.” Keri is a lifelong resident of Atlanta and in her spare time volunteers with Atlanta Volunteer Lawyers Foundation, the Truancy Intervention Project and the International Women’s House.
