One Firm. Six Practice Areas.
The Legal Services Northeast Georgia Families and Businesses Need Most
We built our practice around the legal needs that come up most often in Northeast Georgia, and that large Atlanta firms tend to underserve.
Estate planning and probate, because nearly every family in Hall, Jackson, and Gwinnett counties eventually faces these issues and is better served by counsel who knows the local probate courts. Business law because Northeast Georgia's economic growth is driven by small and mid-size businesses that deserve experienced outside counsel. Civil litigation because when disputes arise, you need an attorney who has actually appeared in Hall County Superior Court, not just one who knows where it is on a map.
Real estate rounds out our local practice. In a region with steady development and rising property values, a local attorney who understands Northeast Georgia's title, zoning, and landlord-tenant issues is essential protection. Our appeals and post-conviction practice extends to the Court of Appeals of Georgia, the Supreme Court of Georgia, and seven federal circuits.
