Attorney Don Singleton

Don Singleton

Donald W. Singleton is a highly respected personal injury trial lawyer with over 30 years of experience advocating for victims of negligence and recklessness in Atlanta and throughout Georgia. He is proud to focus his career exclusively on personal injury litigation, fighting for full and fair compensation for people who have been injured and for families who have lost loved ones due to someone else’s careless or wrongful conduct.

As the founder and owner of Singleton Law Firm, LLC, Don has built his practice on a foundation of trust, hard work, and honesty, earning recognition as one of Atlanta’s top-rated personal injury attorneys. Over the course of his career, he has represented thousands of injured clients and recovered millions of dollars in settlements and verdicts.

Don’s experience spans a wide range of personal injury cases, including car and truck accidents, motorcycle crashes, slip-and-fall incidents, dog bites, wrongful death claims, and other serious injury matters. He is particularly sensitive to the needs of families in wrongful death cases and devotes special attention and care to helping them through times of crisis.

Don has earned Martindale-Hubbell’s highest rating for legal ability and ethics and has been named one of Georgia’s “Super Lawyers,” a distinction awarded to only a small percentage of attorneys in the state.

Empathy and Client-Focused Representation

Don is known for treating his clients as if they were friends or family. He intentionally runs a small, focused practice so he can be selective about the cases he takes on and provide each client with the personal attention their case deserves, rather than operating like a high-volume “TV lawyer” firm.

He understands how overwhelming a serious injury or wrongful death can be and takes the time to listen, explain each step of the process, and be available when clients need him. Many clients describe him as caring, patient, and genuinely invested in their well-being—not just the outcome of their case.

A Unique Perspective

Outside the courtroom, Don is an avid rock climber who has scaled iconic summits such as El Capitan in Yosemite National Park. He applies the same mindset required for successful climbing—careful preparation, strategic planning, attention to detail, and perseverance—to the cases he tries.

In the past, Don also served his community as a certified volunteer firefighter and obtained his Wildland Firefighter certification. This experience gives him a unique perspective on emergencies, injuries, and the importance of acting quickly and decisively to protect others.

Don was born in Atlanta and now lives in Sandy Springs, Georgia, with his family, deepening his connection to the community he serves.

Recognition and Community Impact

Don’s peers in the legal community regard him as a skilled trial lawyer with unmatched dedication to his clients. Colleagues frequently note his thorough case preparation, willingness to take cases to trial when necessary, and unwavering commitment to obtaining the best possible results.

“Over the years I have litigated against and mediated for Don on numerous occasions. He is a fantastic trial lawyer and a great person. He is one of the most knowledgable lawyers I know, and no one works harder to properly prepare a case for trial. Additionally, if need be, he will not hesitate to try a case. This is what really sets him apart from other lawyers. I would not hesitate to recommend Don to anyone who has been injured or to the family who has lost a loved one because of the negligent acts of another.“
