Telephone: (888) 488-9616

As a teenager, his father was badly injured in an accident. The legal team that represented his father made a big impact on Curt and his family, and the experience inspired him to go to law school. He knew he wanted to help people through difficult times the way he and his family were helped through his father’s accident.

A driven advocate for his clients, J. Curt Tanner fights for justice in complex personal injury, civil litigation, motor vehicle wrecks, product liability, and mass tort cases. A member of the firm since 2016, he represents personal injury clients across the states of Alabama,
Tennessee, and Mississippi.

Curt is an accomplished trial lawyer who has successfully tried cases to verdicts in Alabama, Tennessee, and Florida. In 2018, Curt was part of a trial team where a Jefferson County jury awarded the plaintiff a verdict of $10 million in a wrongful death lawsuit. Curt is an expert in and has attained several seven-figure settlements in cases involving drunk drivers, dram shop claims, product liability, car wrecks, and traumatic brain injuries.

Curt was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama. He attended the Cumberland School of Law after graduating from Auburn University. Curt is continuously involved in the local community. He believes that a personal injury lawyer should serve the community not just with their legal needs, but with any needs that will one day allow them to contribute back to the community themselves. Curt is involved in the Moot Court program at Cumberland School of Law, his alma mater. He sees a lot of value in helping law students develop skills that will make them successful attorneys.

When he is not pursuing justice on behalf of his clients, Curt enjoys traveling with his wife, Kathryn, and spending time at the lake with their dog.
