John Morgan became a lawyer with a simple mission: To fight for the people, and not the powerful. After experiencing firsthand the perils of choosing the wrong lawyer and representation after his brother Tim was paralyzed, he dedicated his life to helping people so that no one should ever have to go through what his family endured. Tim was just a teenager when he was working as a lifeguard at Disney World when he suffered a spinal injury that left him confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life. The Morgans made a life altering decision and they hired the wrong lawyer, who was by no means qualified to take on such a large corporation and their army of lawyers. As a result, Tim never got the compensation he deserved. This experience left John outraged and determined to level the playing field for all people who, like his brother Tim, were injured or mistreated by big and powerful corporations. John decided to become a lawyer, and the rest is history. Since 1988, Morgan & Morgan has been fighting for the people. Every client who walks through our doors is treated the same way John wished his family would have been treated all those years ago. No one, no matter who they are, or where they’re from, should ever feel powerless when fighting for the justice and compensation they deserve. With $35 Billion dollars recovered for our clients, offices across 50 states + Washington D.C. and an army of over 1,000 attorneys - we are everywhere for everyone. All law firms are not the same. There’s only one Morgan & Morgan.

Founded in 1990 by Mark Lanier, The Lanier Law Firm is committed to addressing client concerns with effective and often untraditional solutions. Our diverse clients have one common trait: they need serious and sound legal representation, whether they are physically injured or involved in a business dispute. With offices in Houston, New York City, and Los Angeles, the firm is composed of outstanding attorneys with trial experience that includes high-profile cases involving pharmaceutical liability, business fraud, serious personal injuries, dangerous products, and toxic exposure. The firm was one of the first in the nation to pursue major claims involving mesothelioma, conducting extensive research that continues to support our decades of work in this area. Most recently, Mark Lanier served as lead trial counsel in securing a $650.6 million judgment against CVS, Walgreens and Walmart for their roles in failing to control the oversupply and diversion of deadly prescription opioids in two Ohio counties. Much of the evidence and production of documents in the case will support scores of other lawsuits that are pending in similar litigation across the nation. Each year Mr. Lanier hosts a Trial Academy attended by hundreds of attorneys to learn about his successful techniques, with proceeds from the event supporting a humanitarian organization in Latin America. Although significant legal victories are a trademark of The Lanier Law Firm, our primary focus remains, in the words of Mark Lanier, "to provide the highest quality legal care delivered in an honest, professional manner to enrich the lives or businesses of our clients."
