COLUMBUS, Ind., July 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Patrick
(Woody) Harrison is recognized by
Continental Who's Who as 2018 Attorney of The Year in the field of
Law.
With over four decades of experience under his belt,
Patrick (Woody) Harrison is a
trusted name in the legal industry. Throughout his career, Harrison
has attained extensive expertise in the areas of Personal Injury
Law and Medical Malpractice. Harrison states, "My life and career
gives insight into not only the man I am, but the type of law I
practice and why. Early life experiences clearly influenced my
choice of the profession I have pursued with great passion in
Columbus, Indiana, for more than
40 years."
Inspired by his father who was a physician, Harrison learned a
lot about medicine while witnessing his dedication to saving lives
and preventing them from being ruined. While serving in
Vietnam, Harrison saw firsthand
how people suffered without any relief in sight. This prompted him
to make the career decision into the field of Law. Harrison knew
"he wanted to make a difference as an attorney."
From 1968-1970, Harrison served his country in the United States Army in Vietnam. While deployed in Vietnam, he took the LSAT exam for entrance
into law school. After returning from Vietnam, he moved to Columbus, Indiana, where he has practiced law
since 1973.
Harrison started his career in the legal field with the firm
Goltra Cline King and Beck, where he practiced a wide range of law
types – including divorce, bankruptcies, personal injury and more.
However, Harrison focused on personal injury and medical
malpractice early in his career – resulting in a special depth and
breadth of experience in those particular areas. In 1984, Harrison
and his former partner Mr. Beck formed Beck Harrison, P.C. In 2010,
Harrison established his solo practice, which focused on personal
injury and medical malpractice cases.
Early in his career, Harrison attained his Bachelor of Science
degree in Business from Indiana
University in 1968. Thereafter, Harrison went on to complete
his Juris Doctor degree from his alma mater.
