At Cunningham Bounds, we have continued to expand our presence in Georgia with the addition of one of the most respected medical malpractice attorneys in the state. We are proud to welcome Lance Lourie to our Atlanta office. He is a nearly 40-year veteran of medical malpractice and nursing home abuse litigation whose career reflects exceptional trial skill, strategic insight, and a long-standing commitment to justice for injured patients and families.
When medical negligence causes devastating harm, experience and credibility are the foundations required to prepare a strong claim or lawsuit. Attorney Lance Lourie brings both in extraordinary measure.
A Career Built on Results & Respect
Over the course of his career, Attorney Lance Lourie has recovered millions and millions of dollars for clients in complex medical malpractice, nursing home abuse, and catastrophic injury cases. He has tried numerous high-profile cases to verdict, including a $40 million medical malpractice verdict and multiple nursing home abuse verdicts involving severe neglect, dehydration, pressure sores, and life-altering injuries. His work has also resulted in significant settlements in cases involving wrongful death, permanent disability, and institutional negligence.
Just as important as the results themselves is the respect Lance has earned among judges, opposing counsel, and fellow trial lawyers. He has served in leadership roles with the Georgia Trial Lawyers Association, testified before legislative committees on medical malpractice and elder abuse, and helped shape the legal landscape through precedent-setting appellate work before the Georgia Supreme Court.
That reputation for excellence is exactly what we look for when expanding our trial team.
A Strategic Advantage from the Defense Side
Like our Atlanta partner Glenn Kushel, Lance began his career on the defense side, representing hospitals and physicians in malpractice cases for more than a decade. That experience gives him a unique perspective that continues to benefit plaintiffs today.
Understanding how healthcare institutions evaluate risk, how insurers approach settlement decisions, and how corporate defendants prepare their defenses allows cases to be prepared with precision and foresight. For our clients, that means claims can be developed with a clear view of the obstacles ahead and utilize the strategies needed to overcome them.
Proud to Represent the People of Atlanta & Beyond
We opened our Atlanta office in 2023 with a clear purpose: to bring the firm’s national trial strength to Georgia clients facing the most serious injuries and losses. Since then, our Atlanta-based attorneys have resolved newsworthy cases involving medical malpractice, wrongful death, product liability, trucking collisions, and catastrophic injuries, securing tens of millions of dollars in recoveries.
The addition of Lance Lourie marks another major step forward for Cunningham Bounds. It comes as we prepare to move into a new Atlanta office in summer 2026, which will position us even better to help even more people in need of trustworthy legal counsel.
If you are facing the consequences of a serious medical error, you deserve a legal team with the depth and determination to stand up to hospitals, insurers, and corporate healthcare systems. With Attorney Lance Lourie on our side, we’re more prepared than ever before to tackle the most complicated cases around.
