My daughter was seriously injured in a horrible school bus crash in Carroll County. A family member told me to contact John Sherrod. I am very pleased with the services provided by Sherrod and Bernard. The firm was able to get my daughter a settlement against the School Board as well as another insurance company involved. The combined payments took care of my daughter’s medical bills, future treatment and all that she went through in this tragic case.
John took the time to answer all of my questions. He returned my phone calls and he kept me updated on the status of our case over the thirteen months that it took to get the case handled. I was also impressed with the presentation that John made at the mediation Conference.
I highly recommend Sherrod and Bernard.

In December, 2010, I was seriously injured in a workers' compensation and had to have a total hip replacement. Having no prior experience with workers' compensation, I turned to John Sherrod to handle my case. John and his staff were extremely professional and easy to work with, and were able to negotiate a very favorable settlement with my employer. I would not hesitate to recommend John Sherrod for legal representation in any workers' compensation matter.
Deborah Hagan, Winston, GA
I have been a client of Sherrod and Bernard since 2005. John Sherrod has represented me on a worker's compensation injury and a personal injury case. John went above and beyond the call of duty in both of my cases. He is accessible, diligent, and most importantly compassionate. John fought hard in my favor to help me win a 2 million dollar award.

My resolution exceeded every reasonable expectation and I recommend Ken Bernard and Sherrod & Bernard to anyone injured in a car wreck. They do not take shortcuts or the easy way out..
Martha Ann Whitlock, Atlanta, Georgia
I highly recommend John Sherrod and his firm. I was hit by a tractor trailer and John helped me make a full recovery against the trucking company. What impressed me most was what happened after the settlement. John and his staff continued to work the case with issues involving my health insurance and liens. Rather than just pay off the liens, John was able to get my healthcare provider to compromise. Without question, John put more money in my pocket by refusing to stop once the case was settled. I will return anytime, if needed.
Samuel Maxwell, Jr., Douglasville, GA
I was in a bad car wreck. The other driver's insurance company blamed me and refused to pay for my medical bills and other losses. A friend suggested talking to John Sherrod. John took my case and worked on it for 3 years even meeting with my doctors. He and his staff never quit.
Just before court, the insurance company had a change of heart. It agreed to pay for the harm it's driver caused me and my family.
I recommend John and his wonderful staff.
Tifffany Calhoun, Powder Springs, GA
When I was in a car wreck during a recent ice storm, I contacted John Sherrod after I got nowhere with the insurance company. Mr. Sherrod and his staff were able to get me all the insurance coverage that the other driver had. With the settlement, my attorney got all my doctor bills paid and still put a large sum of money in my pocket to cover the stress and pain of going through such an ordeal. I highly recommend John Sherrod and his staff.
James Bynum, Douglasville, GA

Melanie Knight, Newnan, Georgia
In 2003, I was 22 years old, my mother had just lost her life in a battle with a brain tumor, (my father had passed away 9 years earlier in a car accident), and the person my mother married before her cancer diagnosis was and had been doing all he could to take everything she had and everything she left behind...with little to no regard for the law, much less other people. Ken Bernard said to me, "I want to take your case because I like you, and I don't like what seems to be going on." I will never forget that day or those words. Ken built more than a case, he built a performance for mediation. Once he sat down, every sail on the adverse party's ship was riddled with holes! Not a finer attorney or gentleman out there that I have come across.
Richard Bradford,
Atlanta, Georgia
Ken's abilities and reputation far exceed many trial attorneys in the personal injury arena. His quick and honest judgment make his case review skills unparalleled. The interpersonal relationship developed between himself and his client is rare among attorneys. Ken is not only a colleague, but a mentor of mine.
Cade Parian, Attorney, Smith Conerly, LLP,
Carrolton, Georgia
I never expected to go into a department store and suffer serious injuries because of the carelessness of a store employee. That is exactly what happened to me on June 20, 2009. As my medical bills got higher and higher, I did not know what to do. Fortunately, my son was friends with John Sherrod. John took my case and worked on it for over 22 months. He even came to Wedowee, Alabama to interview my witnesses. John made the entire process run smoothly and looked after my interests. Sherrod & Bernard put together a great presentation and the case was settled at a mediation for a confidential amount that I am very pleased with. I highly recommend John Sherrod and his firm, Sherrod & Bernard.
Martha Smith, Wedowee, Alabama

Thank you John and Susan for all your hard work and I will continue to recommend you to my family and friends.
Shemeka Trammell, Douglasville, GA
When I got hurt at work and needed back surgery, my employer refused to pay workers' compensation benefits. My family recommended Sherrod & Bernard. John Sherrod took my case and fought my employer for almost two (2) years. After a trial and several appeals, I got justice in the form of all compensation benefits due to me including payment for my back surgery. Thank you John, Ben and Regina for never giving up.
Brandon Momon, Bowdon, GA
I was struck in the rear of my vehicle by a careless driver while traveling through the State of Florida. I was seriously injured and incurred significant medical bills. I turned to Ken Bernard and the legal team at Sherrod & Bernard in order to seek justice. Ken and his professional staff immediately went to work to insure that we were treated fairly by the insurance carrier. After months of medical treatment, Sherrod & Bernard was able to obtain a monetary settlement insuring that my medical bills would be paid and that I would return to full health. I highly recommend Sherrod & Bernard for anybody injured in an automobile accident.
Jonl A. Steinke, Douglasville, Georgia
My daughter and I were hit by a drunk driver while traveling through the State of Tennessee. I was seriously injured and incurred medical bills that we could not afford to pay. The at fault driver had minimum levels of insurance; thus, it seemed that we would never overcome the financial burden created by being hit by a drunk driver. I turned to Ken Bernard and the legal team at Sherrod & Bernard in order to seek justice. Ken and his professional staff immediately went to work to insure that we were treated fairly by the insurance carrier. Ultimately, Sherrod & Bernard and staff contacted each medical provider in order to negotiate medical bills so that the trauma from this accident would not continue indefinitely due to the financial burdens created by the car accident. In the end, my daughter and I survived this traumatic event. She now has money for her future, and I don't have the worry of lingering medical bills thanks to the efforts of Sherrod & Bernard. I highly recommend Sherrod & Bernard for anybody injured in an automobile accident traveling abroad.
Kenneth David Smith, Temple, Georgia
When I seriously injured my lower back while working for the State of Georgia in 2008, I did not understand my legal rights. I found myself out of work, hurting and receiving no help from the State. A friend suggested that I contact John Sherrod. I am glad that I did. Sherrod & Bernard immediately took charge of my case and got me in front of a Judge. On the day before court, the State of Georgia paid me all my workers' compensation benefits and a substantial amount to settle my case. I am grateful for all the work that Mr. Sherrod and his staff did in helping me during this difficult time.
Lisa Brownlow Hobbs
Last year, my child and I were seriously injured in a wreck with an 18 wheeler. It was pretty scary. I went to Google and filled out many online forms for an attorney. I made up my mind to use the first one who replied. John Sherrod was first. My husband and I made an appointment and went to see him. I didn't have to do anything. John and Susan handled it all for us. They are friendly and helpful. I did NOT feel like a number and felt like they truly wanted to help.
Today I went to their office to pick up my settlement. I did a happy dance. They meant what they said when they told me the dollar amount too. Thanks John and Susan and anyone else in the office I didn't mention. I've been singing your praises around town! You guys are AWESOME!!!! Thank you so much. I will continue to recommend them.
Meghan Pearce, Douglasville, GA

Ken & the staff at S&B are professional, very knowledgeable, & friendly. I feel confident that I have the best firm in west Ga. on my side!
Stacy Fisher, Douglasville, GA
John represented us on two separate occasions. Both times he did what we called "the dirty work" of battling with the insurance people which was a great relief to us due to the medical situations. Prior to hiring John the first time in 2004, I did some checking with a few larger law firms in Atlanta. When I told them I was considering going with John Sherrod of Sherrod and Bernard, they all said the same thing. You are in good hands with John Sherrod.

Charlotte McDuffie, Villa Rica, GA
I have known Ken since I was a young golfer at Lithia Springs High School. I have always respected him as a person and a lawyer. When I was involved in a serious car accident, I called Ken for assistance. My primary concern was getting my car fixed, but I quickly realized I was injured in the wreck. Ken and the legal staff at Sherrod & Bernard provided me professional representation, which resulted in me not only getting my car repaired, but getting financially compensated for my injuries.

Sherrod & Bernard has taken care of my corporate and personal legal matters for nearly a decade. My first dealings with Sherrod & Bernard were as volunteers providing legal services to a local youth baseball league. Eventually, Ken started another non-profit youth baseball league to serve the children of Douglas County. Because of those voluntary efforts, I learned to trust Sherrod & Bernard on a host of matters, both corporate and personal. I highly recommend the legal team at Sherrod & Bernard and respect their reputations for delivering results.
Chad Bailey, Newan, GA
I came to see Ken when I was severely injured in a auto accident as a teenager. The insurance carrier tried to get my parents to sign a release for $850.00 right after the accident, while I was a minor. My parents were given Ken Bernard's name by numerous close personal friends. Ken took the case, rejected the $850.00 attempt to cut off benefits, and immediately began a claim against the carrier. As a result of Ken's efforts, along with the Sherrod and Bernard staff, I was able to heal my facial injuries, regain my life, and was compensated in a confidential settlement beyond my family's imagination. Thank you Ken and the Sherrod and Bernard legal team for all your efforts on my behalf. As a result of your efforts, I have a new life.
