Meet Landon Crider
Landon Crider grew up in Cobb County — just northwest of Atlanta, in the kind of Georgia community where people still know their neighbors and high school football matters. It’s the kind of place that shapes how you see the world: regular people working hard, looking out for each other, and expecting the same in return.
That upbringing never left him. Even after law school, after years inside corporate defense firms, after seeing the legal system from the side that most people never see — Landon’s north star stayed the same. He wanted to help people. Real people. The kind of people he grew up around.
Today, Landon is a personal injury attorney at The Gunn Law Group in Atlanta. He handles car accidents, truck wrecks, wrongful death claims, and other serious injury cases across Georgia. But what makes Landon different from most plaintiff’s lawyers isn’t just his skill or his work ethic — it’s where he came from.
He spent years working for the other side. And that changes everything.
From Defense to Plaintiff — Why Landon Switched Sides
After earning his undergraduate degree and his Juris Doctor from Georgia State University — where he was classmates with Gunn Law Group founder Harrell Gunn — Landon did what a lot of talented young litigators do: he went to work at established defense firms.
Not one firm. Two. Two prominent Atlanta defense firms where he represented insurance companies, corporations, and defendants in personal injury litigation. He learned their strategies. He saw their internal playbooks. He understood, at a granular level, how defense attorneys evaluate cases, how they identify weaknesses in a plaintiff’s claim, and how they build arguments designed to minimize what an injured person takes home.
He was good at it, too. Defense firms don’t keep attorneys who aren’t sharp, and Landon’s time at those firms gave him litigation skills that most young lawyers don’t get for years.
But something didn’t sit right.
The work was intellectually challenging. The paychecks were fine. The career path was clear. But Landon kept coming back to the same thought: the people on the other side of these cases — the ones who were actually hurt, actually struggling, actually trying to put their lives back together — those were the people he wanted to represent.
It wasn’t a dramatic walkout or a sudden epiphany. It was a slow, steady realization that the Cobb County kid who grew up wanting to help regular people had drifted into a career defending the entities those people were up against. And so he made the call.
Landon left defense work. He joined The Gunn Law Group to do what he’d wanted to do all along: help the small against the big.
He Knows How the Other Side Thinks
Here’s why Landon’s background matters to you — the person reading this page because you or someone you love got hurt.
Most personal injury lawyers have only ever worked on the plaintiff side. They know how to build a case, how to negotiate, how to present at trial. That’s important. But they’re guessing at what the defense is doing behind closed doors.
Landon isn’t guessing. He’s been in those rooms.
He knows the specific tactics insurance company lawyers use to delay cases, hoping you’ll get desperate and settle for less. He’s seen the memos where adjusters assign dollar values to your pain before they’ve even talked to you. He understands the algorithms large insurers use to evaluate claims — and he knows where those algorithms break down.
When the defense sends a lowball offer, Landon knows whether they’re bluffing or playing the first card in a longer strategy.
When the defense files a motion to limit evidence, Landon has written those same motions himself — and he knows exactly how to counter them.
When the defense hires an “independent” medical examiner to downplay your injuries, Landon has worked with those same experts on the other side. He knows their tendencies, their biases, and their weak spots.
This isn’t theoretical. It’s operational intelligence. And it gives every GLG client an edge that most firms simply can’t offer.
Think of it this way: if you wanted to break into a vault, you’d want the person who helped build it. Landon helped build the defense playbook. Now he’s using it to win for you.

888-BIG-GUNNA Georgia State Panther Who Chose His Path
Landon’s connection to Georgia State University runs deep. He earned both his undergraduate degree and his law degree there — spending years in one of Atlanta’s most dynamic academic environments. Georgia State’s law program is known for producing practice-ready attorneys, and Landon’s career is proof of that reputation.
It was also at Georgia State where Landon first met Harrell Gunn. They were classmates in law school — studying the same cases, debating the same legal questions, building the foundation for careers that would eventually converge at The Gunn Law Group. That shared history isn’t just a fun fact. It means Landon and Harrell operate with a level of trust and alignment that takes most professional relationships years to develop. They think the same way. They have the same standards. And they share the same commitment to their clients.

Cobb County Roots, Atlanta Reach
Landon grew up in Cobb County — Marietta, Kennesaw, Smyrna, the whole stretch northwest of Atlanta where I-75 and I-575 carve through suburban Georgia. He knows the intersections where accidents happen. He knows the hospitals where injured people end up. He knows the courthouses where cases are decided.
That local knowledge isn’t just background color. In personal injury law, knowing the jurisdiction matters. Knowing the judges matters. Knowing the local medical providers and their reputations matters. Landon brings all of that to every case — not because he studied it, but because he lived it.
And now, as part of The Gunn Law Group, his reach extends across metro Atlanta and beyond. With offices in Atlanta and Norcross, GLG serves clients throughout the state of Georgia — from the perimeter and well past it.

Why “Help the Small Against the Big” Isn’t Just a Slogan
When Landon talks about why he left defense work, he comes back to one phrase: he wanted to help the small against the big.
That’s not a tagline someone in marketing came up with. It’s the actual reason a talented attorney walked away from a comfortable defense career to start over on the plaintiff side.
In personal injury law, the “big” is usually an insurance company with billions in revenue and a legal team whose sole job is to pay you as little as possible. The “small” is you — a person dealing with medical bills, lost income, physical pain, and the stress of not knowing what comes next.
The system isn’t designed to be fair. It’s designed to protect the companies. And that’s exactly why people like Landon exist on this side of the aisle — to level the playing field.
At The Gunn Law Group, that’s not an aspiration. It’s the daily work. Every case, every client, every phone call — it all comes back to the same principle: regular people deserve someone in their corner who actually knows how to win.
Landon Crider is that someone.
