At Cory Watson Attorneys, we believe that the best legal advocates are those who understand that behind every case file is a person looking for a way forward.
That is why we are particularly proud to announce the latest addition to our team of attorneys, a familiar face with a profound commitment to our mission.
From Paralegal to Personal Injury Attorney

Heather L. Jones is not new to the fight for justice.
Before stepping into her role as an associate attorney, Heather spent seven years as a paralegal, developing a granular understanding of the legal process and, more importantly, the needs of our clients.
This transition from a support role to an attorney provides Heather with a unique perspective.
She has seen firsthand how a well-crafted strategy and compassionate communication can alleviate the burden on families facing overwhelming situations.
Her journey is a testament to her dedication, and you can read the full official announcement in our Press Release: Cory Watson Attorneys Welcomes Heather L. Jones.
A Foundation of Academic and Professional Excellence
A native of Hoover, Alabama, Heather’s path to the bar was marked by academic distinction and community leadership. While earning her Juris Doctor from Birmingham School of Law, she was recognized for:
- Academic Achievement: Earning the highest grade in Constitutional Law.
- Leadership: Active involvement in the Judge Hugh Locke Honor Society and the Black Law Students Association.
- Community Engagement: Dedicated service to local Birmingham nonprofits.
Why This Matters for Our Alabama and Tennessee Clients
When you are searching for a personal injury attorney, you aren't looking for any lawyer; you are looking for an experienced, trustworthy legal advocate who will fight tirelessly to ensure your voice is heard.
"Heather has been an invaluable member of our team for years," says Principal Attorney Stephen Hunt.
By promoting talent from within, Cory Watson Attorneys ensures that our clients continue to receive the high standard of care that has helped our firm recover more than $4 Billion to date.
