Sydney Everett

Sydney Everett’s journey at Beasley Allen began as a summer law clerk in 2018. Driven by a sense of justice, she focuses her practice on product liability and personal injury cases. Sydney is currently working on holding major social media platforms accountable for their harmful impact on youth. 

She says the social media litigation has opened her eyes to how much social media has negatively impacted our society, particularly our young people, and how much has been done knowingly and intentionally.

Notable cases include the JUUL Litigation, in which Sydney worked Beasley Allen cases up from start to finish, including the MDL’s lead Bellwether Plaintiff. Beasley Allen played a key role in securing a $235 million settlement against Altria Group Inc. in May 2023. This case was a significant victory in the fight against the youth vaping crisis.

Sydney is an active member of the Alabama State Bar, where she participates in the Young Lawyers’ and Women’s Sections. She is also deeply involved with the Birmingham Bar Association (BBA) and was selected for the BBA Future Leaders Forum, Class 14. Within the BBA, Sydney serves on the Young Lawyers Section Executive Board and co‑chairs the Membership Committee. She is also a member of the Health & Wellness Committee and the Connections Committee, and co‑chairs the Social Committee, helping plan events that strengthen relationships among lawyers and connect the legal community with Birmingham as a whole. In addition, Sydney is an active member of the BBA Women’s Section and the Alabama Association for Justice.

Originally from Montgomery, Alabama, Sydney now resides in Birmingham, Alabama, and attends the Church of the Highlands. She has a passion for people; she loves animals, music, yoga, and spin classes. 

Education

Sydney earned her Juris Doctorate from Samford University’s Cumberland School of Law in May 2018. During her time there, she was awarded a Merit Scholarship and recognized as a Scholar of Merit for product liability. She was also an active member of the Christian Legal Society.
