Colin Andrew Barron
Managing Partner
Professional Overview
Colin A. Barron is the Managing Partner of Haug Barron Law Group and one of Atlanta’s most accomplished plaintiff’s personal injury attorneys. A lifelong Georgia native, Colin has dedicated his career exclusively to representing injured individuals and their families — never insurance companies or defendants — in some of the state’s most complex and high-stakes civil litigation.
Licensed to practice since 2014, Colin brings over a decade of plaintiff-side litigation experience to every case. He approaches each matter with a trial-first mindset: thoroughly evaluating every issue, anticipating defense strategies, and positioning clients for the strongest possible outcome. That courtroom-readiness — combined with a proven track record of multi-million-dollar verdicts and settlements — is what separates Colin’s representation from firms that routinely settle cases short of their full value.

- Multi-Million-Dollar Daycare & Child Injury Settlements: Colin has successfully resolved numerous cases arising from negligent supervision and dangerous conditions at childcare facilities, recovering significant compensation for injured children and their families.
- Multi-Million-Dollar Truck Accident Settlements: Colin regularly handles large commercial vehicle cases involving FMCSA violations, hours-of-service breaches, and carrier negligence, achieving substantial pre-trial and trial results for seriously injured clients.
