Trent Testa is a trial attorney focused on fighting for individuals who've been wrongfully injured. His practice is rooted in high-stakes litigation, sharpened by years of experience advocating for clients whose freedom and future were on the line. Before joining the firm, Trent spent three years as an assistant public defender in Tuscaloosa County, where he built a reputation for fearless courtroom advocacy and tireless client service.

Today, he brings that same tenacity to civil trial work--handling a variety of personal injury cases. For Trent, every case is personal. He approaches each client with the same drive and dedication, whether they're facing criminal charges or trying to rebuild after an injury.

A Chicago native, Trent earned his Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration from Mississippi State University before graduating from Cumberland School of Law in 2021. At Cumberland, he was selected for the school's elite National Trial Team and served as a published member of the Cumberland Law Review. He began his legal career at a civil defense firm before answering the call to advocate for those whose rights and freedom were on the line.

His trial skills have earned him recognition across the legal community. He was honored by the Alabama Criminal Defense Lawyers Association with a Merit Award for Excellence in a Criminal Case, a distinction awarded to attorneys demonstrating exceptional advocacy in defense of the accused. He is also a proud alumnus of the National Criminal Defense College's Deryl Dantzler Trial Practice Institute, an invitation-only, two-week intensive training program considered one of the nation's premier trial advocacy courses.

Now focused exclusively on personal injury, Trent continues to stand with individuals at critical turning points in their lives.

Client Reviews
★★★★★
"I, along with dad and family, want to thank your law firm for all that you did for us in representing my dad in his case. We were very satisfied with the settlement and the overall efforts by your firm. We also think that you and your staff made the process seem calm and smooth, yet professional. We could not have asked for a better attorney -- we would recommend you and your firm to anyone needing your expertise. Thanks so much for everything!!!" D. Hayes and C. Griffin, Clay County, AL

"Mr. Clay, I want to express my gratitude to you for agreeing to take my case. I know that I contacted your law firm with a fast approaching statute of limitations and some really significant challenges in proving my case. Thanks for the time, work, research and energy that you put into my case and for helping achieve a successful outcome. Peace and blessings to you and your family." V. Daniel, Philadelphia, PA

"The team at Hollis Wright were there for my husband when no one else would take his case. Not only did he work hard and recover money that we were owed. Without the help of Hollis Wright, we couldn't have afforded the care my husband needed and I would have lost him much sooner. We'll always consider you a part of the family." Donna B. Jemison, AL
