Julie was extremely knowledgeable and helped provide excellent guidance and information for my case during my consultation. The information I received allowed me to relax knowing that I had options to protect myself and my child. Should I need to litigate in Georgia, I believe this firm will be very helpful in protecting my rights and help me achieve my desired outcome. -S read more

I was honestly surprised by the gross lack of professionalism, let alone the laughable legal assistance I received from this firm. I knew more about my "lawyers" cats than she did about my case. Of course if they'd told me upfront that they were assigning my case to a lawyer with an ONLINE DEGREE from a barely accredited school, I could've saved time by leaving sooner. They cost me time and a LOT of money before I finally dropped them. My new attorney (who's achieved more in six weeks than Meriwther&Farce did in four months) told me that they receive a large number of clients who've had M & T and have left. Sad that so many people will lose money to this firm before leaving to find real attorneys read more

Meriwether & Tharp - My assigned lawyer at Merriwether&Tharpe - Divorce & Family Law Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

Not for black women sexist but My paralegals who is on my team was very supportive, but my attorney Sharon Jones are very bias vicious not for me. She was definitely on my spouse side and when I expressed that to her and I expressed, I don't know who she's working for him or Myself. She threatened to drop me as a client. I've dealt with a lot of privileged people in my life. This is by far the worst law firm, and the worst Lawyer I've ever dealt with. She was also friends with my husband's attorney and decided together on what he should get or what I should do for him I had no attorney. I paid her to help him. I will provide emails correspondence between her, and I expressing her threatening to drop me because I was upset because I didn't understand how she was working for him and not me which is the classic Trump move for people who think they are above you despite them working for you read more

Very impersonal. Met my attorney for the first time at mediation. She did a better job of representing my soon to be ex-husband than me. Lots of room for improvement. Do not recommend. read more

Good luck finding a divorce attorney with five stars. The other side leaves bad reviews of your attorney is good, and no one is in a good mood. With that said, M&T are people with character who work with clients in difficult times. They win far more than they lose, although no one wins in a divorce, and they keep the charges reasonable. Most of all, they provide amazing guidance and counseling throughout the process, and the judges know & respect their team. read more

I really thought this firm would be wonderful. Instead I was lied to, misled, information kept from me, unable to contact folks to find out what was happening, and they made my divorce so much worse than it needed to be. So many told me not to use this firm - to find someone small and local. I wish I'd listened. read more

Stay away from them. They are the worst of the worst. You will get minimal, if any legal help. Their business model is exploiting the emotionally distraught. Their intake department will solicit you to become a client. They will pretend to be so nice. They will market themselves, telling you how they know everything there is to know about divorce and how they will get you thru this challenging time like no one else can. Once you sign up, you are not allowed to talk to intake. You will be assigned a lawyer who is a legal lightweight, and a trainee lawyer, and a trainee paralegal. That's right, you will have a 3-person team whose only interest is to bill you. They are keen to know every cent you have, and every bit of credit you have. While you are thinking total disclosure, they are thinking how many assets you have so they can bill you. They will run up tens of thousands of dollars in discovery, when it only consists of you and your spouse exchanging bank account information. For the slightest administrative task like eyeballing a half page email, you might get charged the paralegal's hourly rate if only the paralegal eyeballed it. If both your attorney and the paralegal eyeballed it, you get charged both their hourly rates. The paralegal's hourly rate is between $200.00 and $300.00. So, you can imagine what the attorney's hourly rate is. The bills come every two weeks unless you are on the flat fee model. So, you can see how the costs add up. Even if you haven't heard from them in weeks, you will get billed hundreds or thousands of dollars. They will claim they were discussing your case among themselves. To talk to your lawyer, you must schedule a 15-, 30-, or 60-minute meeting via phone, zoom, or in person. It will often take 3 - 4 weeks to get on your attorney's schedule. And a 15-minute meeting, even if you only have a 2-minute question, is going to cost you the attorney's sky-high hourly rate. And these are typically not good attorneys. If you choose to email instead, the attorney will charge hundreds of dollars just for eyeballing the email. They demand payment of their ridiculously padded bills every two weeks. Their goal is to get you heavily invested in them financially while keeping you emotionally distraught, so that you are afraid to let them go. They show very little interest in resolving your case. They only want to bill you for as much as they can for as long as they can. Run from these people. But if you make the mistake of hiring them, fire them immediately after the first time they pull this type of thing on you, because they won't get better. Remember, their goal is to get you so heavily invested in them financially that you become hesitant to fire them for fear of losing your investment. I wish I could rate them -5 stars. read more

Should be NEGATIVE stars. Charlotte and Meriwether and Tharpe have been, without question, the worst money I've ever spent in my entire life. And, not just a "little bit" of money, over $50K for me to give up EVERYTHING that was fair to fight for, while my ex-wife gave up nothing. Charlotte did not fight for me, period. Not at all. She looked for every opportunity for me to make concessions, while demanding no concessions from my ex. This experience was a complete and total scam - with the sole intent of separating me from as much of my hard-earned/saved money as they possibly could. Period. They did not "represent" me at all in mediation, flat-out lied to me about "saving money by doing their jobs" around my finances and an initial offer, and happily filed a lien against me knowing full well that I know EXACTLY what they did - i.e., extorted money from me while providing no value whatsoever. Do the right thing for yourself - hire someone else. Do not bother with this scam of an organization. They represent the EXACT thing that people despise about lawyers - they are dishonest scam artists, only interested in taking your money, and lots of it. read more

NEVER HIRE M&T! No Exception. This company is structured in a way like corporate america to use you as a money printing machine, and that you are just a client, nothing more. Mr. Kelly Case worked on my case and ever understood anything about the context of my case. I found out later (from later) that M&T failed to disclosed important information that are most relevant to the case years later. I later found out that Mr. Case and the opposing attorney were friends (they knew each other); and right in the middle of mediation, he told me that it would cost me about $100K more to bring my case to trial. A few days later I reached out to M&T and asked them if I can have another attorney who could represent better than Mr. Case; A few days later he filed motion to withdraw from my case on a the basis that I had a balance of $1.5K, and yet they have ate of $60K+ already. They never called me or post mailed anything (just email) to bring up the important matter. A few months later I found out that Mr. had moved back to Houston, TX (From Atlanta), through internet research and from an attorney I later hired. This company is going to scam you and dont give a shit about you. If you want a good lawyer, lookup a family law lawyer in your area, dont go to a big firm like this one. Mr. Case (also M&T) never take the time to understand your case. Their money making tactic is to represent for as much clients as possible and drag the "cases" for as long as possible. PS: when you meet a good (better) lawyer you will know because they will ask you questions like, I need tax returns, settlement agreements.. etc... Where as Mr. Case would say something like: I need support documents, you have no support documents, it is going to cost you alot more to go to court and you may loose. read more

Don't use this law firm. Here are my reasons: 1) They are too expensive. They immediately take $5k retainer. That's just the beginning of things, folks. 2) They do not communicate well/keep you in the loop on what's going on. 3) One hand does not speak to the other. I get an email or a phone call every other week (if that) from someone else I've never heard of. Each time I have to start over with explaining what I've uploaded to their sharepoint - she will ask for a document/question and I'll have to tell her I've already uploaded it or will remind her I've already talked to someone else about that topic. 4) Meanwhile, the "lawyer" who's supposed to be handling my case (which I paid a premium per hour price for) is somewhere down in SAVANNAH opening a new office!! WTF?! So his "senior paralegal" takes care of things. I guess even the dumb secretary there fancies herself as a "senior paralegal." 5) They've exhausted almost all of the $5k retainer. Meanwhile, we've gotten pretty much NO WHERE. read more

I got a consultation from a lawyer named Pat, which was really great. She gave me really great advice and I was really looking forward to working with her. I was not assigned to Pat, but was assigned to Hope Reis. I did not receive any good advice and after $6000 I am still not divorced . I would not recommend Hope Reis or Sherry harden to work on any case. I looked into getting my money back but there was no guarantee and I had to put in our in hours and hours of more work. So much money down the drain. Now I have to find another I have to find another lawyer and start the whole process over. read more

I would never recommend meriwether & Tharp and charlotte attorney. RIPOFF keep away .. This company is not for ordinary people. I hired CHARLOTTE attorney with Meriwether tharpe.. She had taken humongous fees just for hearing . my Ex-wife paid only one fourth of my charges. Still she got the best judgement. Charlotte attorney and meriwether tharpe will keep charging you until your full blood is sucked.The put lien on anything and threaten you So you cant live your life peacefully ..even after divorced You can't question them of any bills and tasks they do and charge. There's no accountability for their charges. You will be helpless and feel like you are completely ripped off . They charge based on what you make and how much you have , There's no set rule .. before even you realize you would cross more than what had. WE ARE HELPLESS WITH THIS RIP OFF ATTORNEYS THAT WE CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT . THEY PLAY WITH LAWS AND THREATENING LIENS read more

They are horrible!!!!! Can't even begin to explain the constant errors, malpractice and admitted mishandling of case...over the span of 2 years in what I was told was a "slam dunk dead beat dad case", since my ex refused to pay a single penny in child support and alimony in over 5 years (after refusing to follow the final decree and pay the back 3 months mortgage payments to keep house out of foreclosure), I was told that it would be between $3500 and "up to $6or $7K "depending on how much discovery and forensic accounting was needed"...the fact that he wouldn't ever even reply or supply any records should have led to an immediate hearing where he should have been incarcerated if he didn't start complying...instead after constant errors in every single order, conversation, attorneys quitting, getting married, etc...he was given 2 years of time, chances, constant emails giving him more and more chances to turn in discovery (so they could bill me for the emails where they didn't even once ask him for any of the child support) instead of using his noncompliance to prove his blatant contempt, they just kept giving him more continuances and never once making a case for me and my kids who hadn't received a penny in over 5 years!!!! They never asked him or his attorney to pay a dime for 2 years...but just kept bulling me upward to THIRTY THOUSAND DOLLARS!!!!....for never getting to ever go before a judge and then after 2 years and 3 awful attorneys in this firm including the "owner" that took over and said she would make it right and there was no excuse for the way my case had been handled after being settled for Pennie's on the dollar in some 5 min backroom secret pretrial that I knew nothing about while we waited in court the entire day for my attorney to even show up...then was told about this insane deal she basically blackmailed me into by saying if I didn't sign it would be another $10K to even come back to fight it ...then when the owner took over and said I would never receive another bill (which part of the deal anyways was that I was told my ex would pay my attorney fees...also not true apparently!!!),...I continued getting billed and it just got even worse...they didn't even write down the joke of a figure that I was supposed to get (spread out over 5 years with zero interest btw!!! What???!!!), then my final o ok speed are completely incorrect...worded as horribly as humanly possible and loophole after loophole for any narcissist to have a filed day with, much less a malignant one. My attorney calls herself an idiot in court at least once, lets me take the fall for them not even knowing the correct amount of what I was forced to settle for so we then had to wait an additional 3&1/2 months to prove I was right and they were wrong but somehow she didn't say a work to defend me when his attorney was somehow saying I had "unclean hands" bc it took me months to sign instead of telling them why...their error once again...worst horrible nightmare law firm possible...!!!! They won't even reply back about getting my final papers all wrong that they filed without me even seeing it signing bc they know they screwed me and just wanted to make sure it was that way until the very end ...they didn't do one single thing they promised the entire 2 years, not one!!!! They are beyond criminal!!! read more

I have a $50k bill and you are to pay regardless if you receive great or horrible service. They just run up a bill with no results and no regards for your status. Disgusting read more

I don't know how anyone has given this firm anything other than a zero. My experience with this firm has been absolutely horrid. They changed my lawyer three times, they lost or just didn't file critical documents. During the hearing's my lawyer looked dumbfounded when asked for proof of very substantial issues. They failed to file there version of a final judgement when asked for by the court. Not doing so made the court accept my wife's version of the order. They charged me $88,000 to prepare documents they never even sent to the court. Now, I have had to hire an Appellate attorney to appeal my case to the Georgia Court of Appeals. Fortunately, one way to get your case taken up on appeal is to have an attorney who couldn't tie his own shoe laces representing you. If I have one piece of advice for anyone considering or already with them, my advice is to get out and get out fast. If they haven't screwed you yer, they will, the is what they do. Fortunately for me, Ive also been able to hire a malpractice firm to sue them for their horrifying representation. read more

My attorney and team were great! Janet was well prepared and a very knowledgeable and experienced attorney. My only complaint were the fees and how I was double and triple charged for items. Like so many others have said, seems like all they are after is your money. No consideration given to the fact that you tell them you have a budget to work with. What should have been easily resolved, in my honest opinion, took entirely too long. I believe it is dragged out so both parties can milk their clients for more money. I even tried to call the court system to obtain my own information and was told, to contact my attorney. Knowing that every time I contact my attorney they charge me for every second they work on my case. read more

I had the worst experience ever they are cold hearted. I asked for them to speak with the other Attorney to discuss a offer in order to settle my divorce they refused. Know I have a terminal disease and did not want to go to court. After paying them $5000.00 they kept adding additional charges which I could not pay right away less than 30 days they filed a lein against my house. The only service I received was additional stress to my life and a bad effect on my terminal health causing me to become homeless. They could care less! read more

They often leave items undone and then want to charge more when you complain just to get things done that you initially paid for. They will quickly promise one thing, knowing they cant deliver. When you want to complain you get the run around and constant unanswered voicemail machines. read more

They just didn't seem to have the fight in them. I was taken to the cleaners even though my spouse cheated. Lawyers change over here as well. So there is loss of legacy knowledge every time. That's awful during a contentious divorce. read more

I would never recommend this business. How it's conducted is ridiculous. The introduction is great...and then they assign you randomly to an attorney without being able to interview them before ... not cool. Also, you charge WAY to much to communicate back and forth. So thankful I found someone else to represent me. Beware! Their website looks great. Find someone local and personal. I got NO legal advice and was told they'd take care of me... ha! My new attorney did more for me in the first week than M&T did in 3 months! PAPERWORK cost me $3,500 with M&T. Not okay. read more

I selected one star because you have to select something. I chose this firm for my divorce because of the great marketing. My experience is the same as the others. I paid a $3500 retainer that was used just to respond to a divorce with a pre-nup, no kids,no request for pension or alimony. We never went to court, no mediation no conversations with the other atty.I was out of over $10,000 before I realized I was being taken advantage of. This was the second biggest mistake of my life. read more

This is not your local attorney firm. This is one of those firms that scams their clients. They are very responsive prior to being retained but once you retain then forget about them being responsive or taking any interest in your case. They want your $$$ that's it. Very disappointed and would recommend you look elsewhere. They didn't do anything in my case except slap me with fees that didn't make any sense when asked they avoided all communications until I finally gave up and let them go read more

This should be a negative one star review, but that is not an option. I would recommend not using this firm. They make promises they do not deliver on. I am not 10k in the hole for a simple divorce and am currently still not divorced. I am a month behind on my payment to them and they have put a lien on my house. I have communicated with them that my ex has not paid alimony or child support the past month and I am barely keeping the lights on for myself and my kids and they can't be kind enough to help me out. I have paid them over 6k already but haven't as they say consistently paid the past month. I have communicated why and they are a top priority for payment but I have to feed my kids first. From what I'm told from friends that have been through divorce, they are not representing me well. I have to say i agree, but i cant afford a retainer fee for any other lawyer at this point. I understand lawyers are expensive and are a nessesity for divorce. But they should try to do right for their client, and this firm is not a firm that puts their clients needs ahead of their own. They are purely about the money and will charge insane amounts for almost no work. I made a really bad decision signing with them. I was in an very stressed out and emotional state and they took advantage. Anyone who does that to another person is not someone to do business with.​ read more

Probably the worst possible experience I could have expected for my divorce proceedings. I had used merriweather and tharp LLC previously for a small matter one day and they were very responsive and therefore used them for my divorce. Big mistake. I gave my attorneys a budget of all the money I had to work with, and made it very clear that I was on a limited budget. Not once during the divorce did they look out for my financial interest in this way at all, not once did they say that we could review where we are and what we should do in the interest of staying in budget, not once did they offer any suggestions to make the proceedings less expensive. They simply kept working and billing more and more hours without ever addressing the elephant in the room, my budget which ran over by about $50,000. I at least expected to have an attorney that was well prepared but found myself wondering why they seem to be looking to me for some direction in the middle of Court proceedings as if they didn't have arguments well prepared and I should have written my own arguments to help them along. The results of my divorce in the end we're pretty bad, and I will be in debt for years to come because of it. I cannot in good conscience recommend this law firm to anyone. I felt lost in stacks of billable hours and what seemed to be a standard practice of don't ask don't tell regarding going over the client's budget. In the end I got far less than I should have from this divorce. If I had gotten a better decision from the judge, it still wouldn't excuse their lack of looking out for my financial best interest by holistically involving the budget with the decision making process of how far to go and what motions to present and how much to fight and how much is actually affordable. Bottom line is I've had a terrible experience and I recommend you go elsewhere. read more

zero stars!!!! I went to Meriwether and Tharp thinking I was going to be surrounded by a large team of attorneys with lots of resources. Instead they stuck me with one clueless ill prepared paralegal that very obviously wanted as many billable hours out of me as possible. She and her team cared less about my financial well-being and more about racking up the money I would pay. 10 hours in divorce mediation it became very obvious to me that my attorney was getting her butt whipped. I ended up having to negotiate the terms of my divorce on my own because my counsel could not defend me and my interests. You will most likely not meet Mr. Meriwether or Mr Tharp, you'll be thrown to their hyenas and forced to fend for yourself in the end. I cannot believe how terrible this experience was for me and this firm only made things that much worse. Do yourself a favor if you are reading this and move on to the next firm you can find that will only have your best interests at heart. read more

It's OK to have the most expensive company in town when your product and services are the best. When you completely botch it right out of the gate and then continue to make JV mistakes the entire case, it verges on a scam. I really get the feeling if your case isn't 10K they don't want it or will pump it up to that. Lolita managed to turn a simple modification into a 10K boondoggle. I ended up having to negotiate a deal with my ex-wife myself to keep it from trial and a 20K complete catastrophe. read more

Is your divorce complicated? Is your spouse bullying you or hiding income? When you need an attorney who is compassionate and knows the law well enough to help in such a sticky situations, Joann Williams is it! She was heaven sent. My divorce didn't go as planned. My ex-husband and I filed signed settlement agreement and parenting plans the day we filed our divorce papers. I had been a stay-at-home mom and he had agreed to support me for the 6 months it would take for me to finish my education. This was a private deal because we didn't want the court in our financial lives. Considering we divorced over cruelty issues, trusting him here was a big mistake on my part. Two weeks later when his son and I were literally surviving on rice for every meal, I filed a motion for Scrivnors Error for the alimony he had promised (I had his promise in writing). Even though I only filed for what he had promised, he interpreted as an act of war. Despite having excellent legal counsel (Joann Williams), you are truly at the mercy of the judge. Our hearing wasn't even for alimony, it was to determine whether our original Settlement agreement should be enforced. Sadly, our judge actually said on our hearing date that she didn't have time to listen to our legal arguements and we needed to work this out ourselves in the hall. We had filed a lot of paperwork before this hearing and had tons of evidence, but our judge refused to hear it; threatening us with "the axe" if we wasted her time. If she had read our case, there was no evidence of it. I am shocked that sometimes the legal system is so broken. Despite such a disheartening experience in court, I know without a doubt that Joann Williams represented me much better than anyone else would have. I am also confident that, with a different judge, our outcome would have been very different. Joann researched and well-documented everything. She listened to me, empathized, and I truly felt like she cared. I wrote this on 12/3/2013 but for some reason it saved as a draft. read more

I had the pleasure of having two outstanding attorneys from MWT represent me during an unpleasurable divorce. Please see the two reviews for Lisa Marie Chambers and Joann Brown Williams below. I highly recommend the MWT firm and these two awesome family law attorneys! Lisa Marie Chambers Exceptional Attorney and Highly Recommended! I could not have asked for a better attorney to represent me during my lengthy divorce. I have lots to say about Lisa Marie, so please read on if you're searching for an honorable and knowledgeable attorney. I contacted Meriwether and Tharp in July 2015 and was recommended Lisa Marie Chambers. We had an initial phone consultation and then met in person to discuss the details of my divorce. She gave me her undivided attention and offered excellent advice during this difficult time. I immediately noticed that Lisa Marie is not only very familiar with all pertaining laws, but she is very honest and truly cares about the people whom she represents. The divorce process continued for over a year and a half due to an unwavering and aggressive opposing side. Lisa Marie was very aware of the costs associated with an unnecessarily aggressive approach, so she refused to respond to the opposing side with reactive aggression. Her main focus is to come to a quick and fair outcome, based on laws and equity, to relieve all parties of additional financial and emotional stress. Through the ups and downs, she always made time to thoughtfully respond to me and consistently offered me level-headed advice. She is passionate about her job as a family law attorney and it showed in every single communication between the two of us. Lisa Marie is dedicated-worker, is patient and understanding, is very knowledgeable of the law, and honestly believes in justice and equality. I would recommend her to anyone as a family law attorney! Joann Brown-Williams Exceptional attorney and person! Wow! Joann jumped on board to help with my particularly "arduous" divorce after about a month in. Over the next 16 months, Joann proved to be not only an exceptional family law attorney, but also a tremendous person. I could not have asked for a more knowledgeable and compassionate justice-seeker. She's mastered every facet of family law; from custody to finances, to case law, examination, and the list goes on. I was never left without answers and was always provided excellent guidance. Divorce is not simply getting what you think you deserve. None of us do. While Joann helped me to maintain healthy optimism throughout, she made it clear that in the end, one person will decide what the outcome is. Despite the incredible difficulties and emotional ride that the divorce threw my way, Joann assisted me by not only paving the way for an equitable outcome, but she helped to lay the foundation for emotional recovery along the way. Joann understands the psychology behind family law and her comforting support is equally as strong as her legal prowess. She dealt with my emotional ramblings and was always patient and positive in her responses. Having her as a steady, compassionate, and (uncommonly) brilliant attorney was essential to a just outcome. An interesting tidbit is that she's the only person that I've ever seen to have the ability to track and write about different topics ambidextrously at the same time! I will be forever grateful for the exceptional representation and compassion shown during my lengthy divorce. I obviously highly recommend Joann Brown Williams. read more

Lolita Beyah was my attorney but was absolutely terrible. My ex husband did not have an attorney and she acted as his at times. He agreed to give me the house outright and she put in the papers he was to get 30%. She never went over the papers, I had to proofread and catch it myself. She never went over any of the papers, I had to read it and try and interpret it myself. She stayed busy during our whole appointment and never once sat down with us. I caught the part about the house and questioned her about it, she said since he didn't have an attorney, it would look fishy to the judge and she "had to protect her name." She also had me making more than I do and my ex husband making less on the child support sheet. I pointed it out, and had to fight her to change that as well. Originally I was to get less than $200 for 2 kids, and I had to FIGHT my attorney for more, even though he was there and willing to sign corrected documents. My divorce was completely uncontested and they charged me thousands. I spent over a thousand just to fight her to fight for me, yes I was charged for that too. She stayed on the phone longer trying to give me personal advice, charged for that. I even had problems selling the house because of Lolita's failure to care about her clients. I got so screwed over in the divorce by my OWN attorney. Complaining won't do you any good, they'll say your divorce is complete "and we wish you the very best." I used to deliver to this office for years and had a good working relationship with these people, that means nothing. Please do yourself a favor and keep looking for an attorney that will actually have your best interests at heart. read more

Paid the $3500 retainer March 7th and they didn't even file after 4 months. My retainer was docked almost $800 for a few emails and a 30 minute chat with my "lawyer". I thought I was in really good hands but apparently I was not. Very disappointed in the results as they were not what I was expecting after feeling confident that I was after my consultation. read more

Wonderful attorneys, so glad I marched my country self to the big Atlanta attorneys. They worked with me every step of the way. They explained everything, emailed everything, etc. Divorce is just so much WORK. They made me feel like we were working a business deal between me &my ex. Professional, courteous, southern hospitality type place. read more

Very disappointed with this firm,I had very high expectations,impersonal and not engaging, but very expensive, no rating

This is a horrible law firm, they charge for everything and I definitely don't feel like I have gotten anything for my money. They got some documents for discovery, filed the divorce and scheduled mediation and that cost me $10,000 and this is a no fault divorce. RIP OFF. I did all of the work, I let them know that some of the discovery documents were fake and the documents were incomplete. I let them know what charges on the statements my husband spent out money on other women. They were useless for that part of the process. I have got NOTHING for my money. read more

Before you signanything with this law firm you need to research the definition of padding and tasking on your bills. This law firm charged my daughter 6 times to send . We were rushed due to the judge was ready to gog homea email. 1 time for a thought of sending an email, 2nd time - to type email, 3rd time for a conversation about email, 4th - 5th & 6th time for god knows what. There was no prep for court and court was in the middle of no where - No place to eat a decent meal and court went until 7:30pm with no food or water. Our attorney was not worth the $41,000.00 we were charged. If you are choosing an attorney for anything at all... DO NOT CHOOSE THIS OFFICE!!! You have a better chance defending yourself. This will not be the only review I put out in the world.I will write a letter to the Georiga Law Board and I am blasting this on every social media site I can find and share. If I save 1 (one) person from the finanical burden, emotional heartache, and the complete disappointment of the attorney who was paid an absurd amount of money to do nothing. This law firm should have been an accounting firm not a law firm representing anyone that is dealing with child custody and divorce. I would hate to be the attorney who represented my daughter in a child custody and divorce case. She has to get up eveyday and look herself in the mirror and know that she did not do her job at all. It was a trerrible representation of a case and the attorney was not prepared to do her job. She never fought for her client and she let the judge just push us off the stand because he was ready to go home. The entire process in Georgia court rooms are exhausting and unfair.

I hate to post negative reviews, but this firm Really earned it. After spending a year and over $4000 to have my son's name changed which is suppose to be a simple legal matter, They withdrew from the case and still nothing has been done. They literally spent $4000 on emails on emails going back and forth and NOTHING was done. Very disappointed as this is my first experience with a law firm. They were completely useless, and could not get a name changed for a 7 year old child who has not met the absent parent. I should of read the reviews before hiring them. read more

Well...its been at least a year since i had my divorce with this company. Divorces are rge hardest, toughest times and this company or let me rephrase a few lawyers here and paralegal took this time as a money making time. They were horrible, representation was not the best as i am still finding things they should have advised otherwise. They did NOT do their job ...they tried to cherge me 20000 for an uncontested case ...if it was not for my scrutiny i would have been messed up. Run...go to the small practice forget abt large firms...they are more about billable hours ...my experience i would never recommend. Now one of the senior partners listened to be but i still feel i paid more than i should...run run run.. read more
