Ten Poole Huffman Attorneys Recognized in 2027 Georgia Super Lawyers and Rising Stars
Poole Huffman is proud to announce that ten of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized in the 2027 edition of Georgia Super Lawyers and Rising Stars, reflecting the experience, dedication, and commitment to excellence our attorneys bring to their clients and the practice of law.
This year’s recognition is particularly meaningful as it includes both longtime honorees and attorneys receiving Super Lawyers recognition for the first time. Together, these selections highlight the depth of talent across Poole Huffman and the firm’s continued commitment to providing strategic, results-driven representation to businesses and individuals throughout Georgia.
We are also especially proud to congratulate Todd J. Poole, who earned the additional distinction of being named to the 2027 Top 100 Georgia Super Lawyers list for the second time.

His Top 100 recognition represents another outstanding achievement in a career dedicated to serving clients, developing attorneys, and helping build Poole Huffman into the business litigation and dispute resolution firm it is today.

Recognizing Excellence in Georgia’s Legal Community
Super Lawyers recognizes attorneys across more than 70 practice areas through a patented selection process involving independent research and peer evaluation. Rising Stars recognizes accomplished attorneys who are either 40 years old or younger or have been in practice for 10 years or less.
For Poole Huffman, these honors are especially meaningful because they reflect the individual accomplishments of our attorneys as well as the strength of the team they have helped build.
Our attorneys represent businesses, business owners, and individuals in business litigation, commercial disputes, real estate litigation, fraud matters, commercial collections, and other complex legal disputes throughout metro Atlanta and Georgia. While each of our attorneys brings different experience and perspective to that work, they share a commitment to practical counsel, thoughtful advocacy, and achieving meaningful results for our clients.
We are incredibly proud of all ten Poole Huffman attorneys recognized by 2027 Georgia Super Lawyers and Rising Stars. Their recognition reflects the hard work they put into their practice, the trust our clients place in them, and their continued commitment to excellence.
Congratulations to Timothy Andrews, Drake Blackmon, Heather Brown, Jon David Huffman, Michael McGuffee, Shelby McKenzie, Scott McMahan, James Merritt, Todd Poole, and Amy Weber on this well-deserved recognition—and a special congratulations to Todd on being named one of the Top 100 Georgia Super Lawyers for 2027.
