An Atlanta Family, Divorce and Estate Planning Law Firm
The decision to seek legal advice is usually accompanied by anxiety and uncertainty. In most cases, speaking with a lawyer means your life is disrupted. This is particularly true in family law as it affects one of the core structures of our lives. As a lawyer I want to provide the best representation possible to my clients. As a mother I want to do so with sympathy and care. I have practiced law for nearly 20 years and believe divorce law firms in Atlanta should balance professionalism with compassion.
Helping couples amicably solve differences and move on
If both spouses agree on the divorce and its terms the process can be completed in a month. However, sometimes two partners cannot agree on issues and under these circumstances divorce proceedings can take a year or more. Common sources of divorce contention are child custody and finances.
If you and your spouse cannot agree on these or other issues I will attempt to settle your differences through out-of court solutions such as mediation and collaborative law. If these negotiations fail I will help you reach a fair divorce through litigation.
Aside from providing counsel for divorce cases, my divorce law firm in Atlanta also assists clients with the following:
- Guardian ad litem: This is a person the court appoints to represent minors in court during divorce cases.
- Domestic partnerships: It is important for non-traditional couples, such as relatives or cohabitants, to protect interest such as real estate, wills and child custody through legal agreements. Such an agreement is usually drawn up similarly to a prenuptial agreement and protects both partners from potential legal disputes.
- Name changes: I can help you file a petition with the court and deal with possible objections by creditors or other individuals or entities.
- Estate planning and probate: Using my extensive knowledge of Georgia probate and trust law I will help you draft a will, assign a will administrator, create a trust, and more. I also represent families in probate litigation.
