Biography Overview
Joe Harrison Wade, II (Jody) is a personal injury trial lawyer practicing out of Morgan and Morgan, P.A.'s Jacksonville, FL office. Jody is a former United States Marine infantryman, a 2002 graduate of the University of Kentucky, where he played outside center for the UK Rugby Football Club, and a 2006 graduate of Florida Coastal School of Law. Jody applies the same qualities required of a U.S. Marine to the people he represents today. He has extensive experience in personal injury cases ranging from car, truck and motorcycle crash to negligent security related injuries, slip and fall injuries, dog attacks and wrongful death.
Jody’s work is focused solely on helping those who have been seriously injured because of the careless/needless acts of others by taking on insurance companies who nearly always refuse to pay fair value for these needless acts of negligence.
Jody is admitted to practice in Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, and the Federal District Court for the Middle District of Florida. He is a member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum and the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum. This membership is based on strict objective qualifications and is one of the most prestigious groups of trial lawyers in the United States. Membership is limited to attorneys who have won million and multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements. Fewer than 1% of U.S. lawyers are members. Jody is also a member of the Academy of Truck Accident Attorneys, which exists to focus on the area of Semi-Truck related injuries and fatalities and oppose dangerous trucking practices that needlessly endanger others.
