Known for her relentless advocacy, strategic thinking, and courtroom presence, Nola has successfully litigated cases in both state and federal courts throughout Georgia.

Her combination of legal skill, practical judgment, and genuine compassion has earned the trust of clients, colleagues, and juries alike.

A Unique Foundation in the Law

After earning her Juris Doctor from Georgia State University College of Law, Nola began her legal career serving the judiciary. She clerked for Senior Judges in Fulton County and later for two Justices of the Georgia Supreme Court, gaining invaluable insight into judicial decision-making and the inner workings of the legal system.

Nola subsequently became a partner at a national civil defense firm, where she represented some of the country’s largest insurance companies and corporate defendants. In that role, she developed a deep understanding of how insurers evaluate claims, interpret policies, and defend lawsuits. She also gained firsthand knowledge of the strategies frequently used to minimize the value of injury claims.

Although successful on the defense side, Nola discovered her true passion in advocating for injured individuals and their families. Determined to use her experience for those who needed it most, she transitioned to plaintiff’s litigation and joined Werner Law. Today, she leverages her unique insider perspective to anticipate defense tactics, overcome obstacles, and maximize results for her clients.

Dedicated to Families. Committed to Results.

As a wife of more than thirty years and the mother of two children, Nola understands that a serious injury affects far more than the person who was hurt—it impacts entire families. She brings that understanding to every client relationship, providing personal attention, honest communication, and unwavering support throughout the legal process.

Nola takes the time to know her clients, understand their goals, and guide them through what can often be an overwhelming experience. At the same time, she is a fierce advocate who never loses sight of what is at stake. Whether negotiating with insurance companies or presenting a case to a jury, her focus remains the same: securing justice and achieving the best possible outcome for the people she represents.
Through preparation, persistence, and genuine care for her clients, Nola Jackson has built a reputation as a trusted advocate and accomplished trial lawyer who fights tirelessly for the injured.
