Henry M. Quillian III Joins Taylor English Law Firm

Taylor English Duma LLP announced today the addition of one of Atlanta’s most distinguished litigators, Henry M. Quillian III.

Quillian’s litigation and counseling practice combines his legal and engineering experience in the fields of construction, insurance coverage, antitrust, catastrophic personal injury and products liability.  He has made Atlanta Magazine’s list of Georgia “Super Lawyers” every year since 2004, and in 2007 and 2008 was voted among Georgia’s Legal Elite by Georgia Trend Magazine.  Quillian was also voted a top 100 Georgia Lawyer in the Super Lawyers survey in 2009.

“With his expertise in construction litigation, Henry will be a valuable asset to our firm,” says Scott L. Duma, Managing Partner.  “He has successfully pursued cases involving trademarks, software development contracts, Title VII and products liability.  He has also handled multi-million dollar litigation across the nation and internationally.”

Quillian graduated magna cum laude from Duke University’s School of Engineering and cum laude from the University of Georgia School of Law. He has also served as President of the Federal Bar Association, Atlanta Chapter, and was the national General Counsel of the FBA for three years. In 2004 and 2005, he served as Chair of the Construction Law Section of the Atlanta Bar Association.

“My clients needed services in a much broader business realm, and Taylor English offers that platform,” Quillian says. “I look forward to expanding my patent litigation practice and the intellectual challenge of working with these talented people on a daily basis.”

A native Atlantan, Quillian lives in Atlanta with his wife Celia and their two children.
