Pitts recognized by lawyers’ group for client satisfaction

The American Institute of Personal Injury Attorneys has recognized the exceptional performance of New Georgia’s personal injury attorney Mark Pitts as one of the 10 best best personal injury attorneys for client satisfaction over a two-year period.

The American Institute of Personal Injury Attorneys is a third-party attorney rating organization that publishes an annual list of the Top 10 personal injury attorneys in each state. Attorneys who are selected to the “10 Best” list must pass group’s selection process, which is based on client and/or peer nominations, thorough research and the group’s independent evaluation. The annual list was created to be used as a resource for clients during the attorney selection process.

Gladys Taylor has been the food services manager for six years. Donna French is the administrative coordinator and has been there for five years.
