Sarah Adle

For more than a decade, Sarah Adle, has litigated cases involving catastrophic personal injury and wrongful death in Georgia. Since joining the Tyrone Law Firm in 2013, Sarah has continued to expand her diverse background of experiencing, focusing on cases involving birth injuries and clients suffering from RSD/CRPS.

Sarah began her career working for two of Atlanta’s premier insurance defense firms, defending doctors, hospitals, motor vehicle carriers, premises owners and medical device companies. This experience gave her insight as to what motivates insurance companies to offer fair compensation, and an understanding of litigation from the defendant’s perspective. Although she started out on “the dark side,” Sarah knew from the beginning that she wanted to represent injured individuals and their families. When the opportunity to make the switch came knocking, she answered and never looked back. Sarah is a passionate and zealous advocate for our clients.

Professionally, Sarah’s interests include research and writing, case analysis and strategy, and working with clients. Personally, she enjoys doing outdoor activities, keeping up with the Atlanta restaurant scene, and spending time with her husband and their three young daughters.
