{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Person","nationality":"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/United_States","givenName":"Frank","naics":"541110","disambiguatingDescription":"Frank Bayuk - Attorney at Bayuk Pratt LLC","isicV4":"6910","name":"Attorney - Frank Bayuk","description":"Why is Frank Bayuk one of Atlanta\u2019s most highly sought-after attorneys for plaintiff\u2019s-side personal injury lawsuits and civil law litigation? Because he has insider knowledge of how big businesses think \u2014 and how to win lawsuits against them.  Frank is one of Bayuk Pratt\u2019s two founders and lead attorneys. His experience as a first-chair trial lawyer at some of the largest defense firms gives his clients \u2014 people injured or who have lost family members due to catastrophic accidents and faulty products \u2014 the edge they need to get the compensation and justice they deserve.  A native of Ormond Beach, Florida, Frank has a simple reason for breaking free from big-law partnership. He came to believe that individuals and families should have the same elite level of legal representation usually reserved for the world\u2019s most powerful companies. In the time since he and Bradley Pratt formed Bayuk Pratt in 2022, Frank has helped accident victims recover more than $300 million in compensation.  Throughout his two decades in practice, Frank has tried dozens of cases to verdict \u2014 involving billions of dollars in damages \u2014 in courtrooms across Georgia and the U.S. Many of these extremely complex, high-stakes trials have been in some of the toughest jurisdictions.  Before establishing Bayuk Pratt, Frank was a partner at two of the largest defense firms in the world, Jones Day and King & Spalding. There, he led numerous trial teams and supervised hundreds of lawyers in the workup and trial strategy development for severe injury and death cases. The wealthiest Fortune 100 corporate clients regularly sought him out to chair their cases, citing his effective legal skills and techniques in the courtroom.  Frank racked up high praise, such as having \u201ca stellar track record of defending some of America\u2019s most established and well-known companies against potentially devastating legal actions, and he has accomplished this in what have often been hostile environments.\u201d Further, \u201chis work on behalf of companies facing aggressive, high-stakes liability actions is outstanding.\u201d  But Frank began having the gnawing feeling that there was a much better use for his litigation skills. With Bayuk Pratt, he puts his know-how of winning complex injury, class-action, mass torts, and other critical cases to work for those who truly need it. These are citizens who can\u2019t fight for themselves but want justice from the big corporations and their insurance carriers for the harm they caused.  Many of the country\u2019s leading legal publications and rankings services routinely commend Frank\u2019s \u201cnotable trial capabilities.\u201d For example, Chambers praises him as \u201can excellent trial lawyer \u2014 very innovative, and with a very broad knowledge base,\u201d as well as being \u201ca relentless and ethical lawyer.\u201d Georgia Super Lawyers has repeatedly featured Frank on its annual peer-select list, and he is a \u201cRising Star\u201d in Law360 trials and products liability categories. Benchmark Litigation has him on its \u201cUnder 40 Hot List,\u201d while Legal500 lauds him for his \u201cstrong reputation.\u201d  Frank believes the next generation of lawyers need legal mentors to help them reach their career goals. He regularly works with younger and aspiring attorneys to give them the experience they need. Frank also is a faculty member for Emory University School of Law\u2019s Trial Techniques program, where he helps law students learn preparation and techniques for the courtoom.  When he is away from his law practice, Frank relishes the time he spends with his daughter and son. He helps them with their schoolwork when needed (don\u2019t worry \u2014 he doesn\u2019t charge them hourly fees!) and coaches their sports teams. Frank is a proud Atlanta Braves fan and loves to travel and ski. He attends Buckhead Church in Atlanta.","sameAs":"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Attorney","url":"https:\/\/bayukpratt.com\/attorneys\/frank-bayuk\/","familyName":"Bayuk","@id":"https:\/\/bayukpratt.com\/attorneys\/frank-bayuk\/#Person"}
