introduction
In the last ten years, Pope has successfully obtained through settlement or trial, recoveries for clients in excess of 250 million dollars. He has obtained one of the highest personal injury verdicts in South Georgia, one of the highest wrongful death verdicts in South Georgia, one of the largest wrongful death settlements in a routine motor vehicle accident in a rural south Georgia community, and one of the largest civil rights verdicts in the State of Georgia. At the same time, Pope handles complex commercial litigation, often involving disputes in the tens of millions of dollars. For example, Pope defended a company arising out of one of the largest wildfires in the State of Georgia, represented a California company in a contract dispute over the largest Lowe’s retail center in the country, an Italian motorcycle company in a dispute over importation and distribution of motorcycles in the U.S., and a multi-state bank fraud case involving automobile dealerships.
Pope has litigated cases in numerous states across the country, including Florida, Alabama, New York, Oklahoma, Texas, Colorado, Maryland, and New Jersey. Recently, he successfully defended a client in a business fraud case in Oklahoma, resolving the matter successfully pre-trial, for the client, after which the case proceeded to trial and the remaining defendant suffered a 50 million dollar verdict.
In conjunction with his professional affiliations, Pope is also actively involved in the community. He is a member of Park Avenue United Methodist Church. He is a prior member of the Board of the United Way of Lowndes County, where he served on the executive committee, served for several years as Chairman of Allocations, directing where the funds raised by the organization were spent, and served as the Campaign Chairman along with his wife, Evelyn. He has been a member of the executive committee for the local YMCA Board of Directors, has served as Treasurer, Vice-President, and President of the Lowndes Education Improvement Foundation, and currently serves on the Board of Directors of Guardian Bank, and its holding company, WB&T Bankshares.
Last, he is an accomplished pilot, with over 2,000 hours of pilot time, holding a commercial pilot’s license with multi-engine instrument ratings, a series 525 type rating, and a helicopter license. He utilizes this skill in his law practice, allowing him to represent clients throughout the country.
