I am an attorney and a member in good standing with the State Bar of Georgia. I do hereby certify that more of my practice is devoted to representation of injured victims and wronged consumers than is spent in the defense of such claims and that I am not a member nor am I eligible for membership in either Defense Research Institute (DRI), the Georgia Association of Defense Lawyers (GADL ) or similar organizations. I further agree that in the event that for any reason the nature of my practice changes such that I no longer meet the membership criteria set forth herein, I will immediately notify GTLA and relinquish my general membership in GTLA. Further, if other members of my firm are not eligible for general membership in GTLA, I will make all reasonable and necessary efforts to implement specific institutional mechanisms (e.g., "Chinese Walls") to effectively prevent any flow of confidential or sensitive information generated by GTLA or its members to such attorneys in my firm, (See, Cromley v. Board of Education, 17 F.3d 1059, 1064-1065 (7th Cir. 1994)); and will, on request, provide the Executive Committee, or any committee appointed regarding membership criteria, with sufficient details regarding such institutional mechanisms to verify that the interests of GTLA and its members are being protected. Further, I do hereby agree to not use information obtained from GTLA or its members, whether the same is disseminated or made available by means of the GTLA's litigation groups, website, listservs, seminars or otherwise, to advance interests opposed to those of GTLA, its members or any injured victim or wronged consumer; and acknowledge my understanding that such information would include, but not limited to, information about experts, information about insurers, and information about political goals or strategies of the organization. Further, I do hereby swear or affirm that I shall fully and faithfully abide by the Constitution, the By-Laws and all rules or policies of GTLA which are now or which shall hereinafter be in effect. By signing this application, I do hereby represent, as an attorney and member of State Bar of Georgia, that the certifications and statements herein are truthful and correct, and acknowledge my understanding that any false or misleading certifications or statements made as part of a Membership application serve as grounds for expulsion, suspension or censure under section 3.07 of the GTLA By-Laws.

I agree to receive notices advertisements, announcements, brochures, invoices, and other information from the Georgia Trial Lawyers Association, via facsimile, telephone, or e-mail. I further agree that my express permission to fax, telephone or e-mail all employees such notices and other information will continue and have no date of expiration.
