About Cory
Cory Simmons began his legal career after finishing law school in 2007. He earned a Bachelor of Arts from Florida State University and then took his law degree from Florida Coastal School of Law. Those years set a basic roadmap. He has since built a steady practice in the Southeast.
Simmons moved from the classroom to courtrooms and client meetings. He earned his J.D. in 2007 and entered practice soon after. Training at Florida Coastal shaped his approach to litigation and client service. The combination of a liberal arts undergraduate education and a professional law degree informed the way he frames legal problems and communicates options to clients.
He is admitted to practice in Georgia and is employed as a lawyer at Morgan & Morgan. His time at the firm has involved regular courtroom work, preparation of pleadings, and handling client consultations. Colleagues describe him as practical in the office and methodical in preparation. He balances litigation duties with case management. That mix keeps him engaged with both legal strategy and the day-to-day needs clients bring.
Simmons maintains professional ties in the region. He holds a current membership in the Jacksonville Bar Association and belongs to other professional groups. Those connections keep him plugged into local rules and court procedures. He attends meetings and continuing education programs. The memberships also offer a forum for exchanging ideas with other lawyers practicing nearby.
Outside the office he spends time refining trial skills and staying up to date on changes in Georgia law. He reads court opinions and updates on procedural developments. That work is practical and ongoing. It informs how he frames arguments and advises clients about realistic outcomes.
Simmons combines courtroom experience, routine client counseling, and the resources of a larger firm. He tends to approach cases step by step. First come the facts and the client's objectives. Then come the options, the paperwork, and the next court date. He aims to be clear about potential paths ahead and to keep clients informed through each phase.
He currently practices at Morgan & Morgan, representing clients across Georgia and addressing their civil legal needs.
