Ms. McCalla is a Godsend! I contacted her after I was cited for a DUI among lesser charges. She and her team were able to get me acquitted by using the facts of the case. Recently I was initially looking at jail time, and she was able to negotiate four community service! She is a good person, and is awesome at what she does! She really has found her calling. I'd recommend her to anyone who has issues with misdemeanors! Her number will always be on speed dial for as long as I live in the state of Georgia. I'm truly grateful for what she has done for me!

I would highly recommend Daniela McCalla for any legal services needed. I was hurt in a car accident last December, and I needed a lawyer. I contacted Ms. McCalla and was very satisfied with my experience. She walked me through each process step by step. She was able to find me a physical therapist, a great chiropractor, and a doctor that was willing to work with my schedule. She kept me informed during the entire process and was always available to answer my questions. This attorney made sure I received a fair and favorable settlement from the insurance company. She is extremely personable, reliable and provided exceptional customer service.

Hello I'm Abigail, and I'm going to tell you my own personal testimony. Woke up one day realizing, I didn't know the first thing about getting a divorce, yet alone the paperwork involved. Mrs. McCalla had already been a mentor to me throughout many years. So of course, I immediately contacted her to gather the proper legal guidance I knew was necessary . We had a consultation to discuss the divorce papers comprehensively, and Mrs. McCalla educated me on every scenario possible so there were no loose ends. At the end of the meeting, I had a lot to review, and decisions to make. Time wasn't exactly on my side, but I felt very confident. Taking steps towards my divorce was already a very emotional roller coaster for me to begin with. Thankfully, Mrs.McCalla was phenomenal, quick, and responsive to all my questions. She's hears you out no matter how dire the situation, giving me legal advice that would make it go as smoothly as possible. So far, I would absolutely recommend Mrs. McCalla as a lawyer. She is the best. Even if this is a hard time for my marriage, I don't believe I'll make any poor decisions thanks to her guidance.

I would recommend these attorneys to any of my family and friends. They were very knowledgeable and fought for me even when I had a citation against me. The police officers found me at fault and gave me a ticket even though I was innocent. No lawyers would take my case because I had received the citation, and I had just about given up on the case but these attorneys picked up the case, fought hard, took it all the way to trial and delivered me a WIN! To God be the Glory!

Colin and Hill Innovative Law is amazing! I use Colin for many of my professional and personal (family estate and trust) matters. He is an EXTREMELY well-rounded attorney - public companies (SEC compliance matters), emerging/start-up businesses, real -estate transactions and everything dealing with complex family trust matters. Best part about Colin is that his zeal for getting it done the right way will often take him down a research path. If not 100% familiar with a complex issue, he will research it until HE is the expert. No longer do I need 5 attorneys for 5 different type of matters, Colin is able to support me across the board. Thank you!!!

Mary Donne provided extremely valuable advice and counsel during a recent contract dispute. Although I was 'fed up' with the situation and ready to walk away from a significant investment of both time and money, Mary Donne 'brokered' a solution that turned out to be a 'win-win' for me and the opposing party. She is an excellent lawyer and I recommend her without reservation!

I was at my "wit's end" after 16 months with the legal system having charged me with 4 criminal counts. I contacted Counts Law Group on Friday for HELP and Cynthia Counts agreed to meet with me on Saturday at 10:30 (Father's Day Weekend w/Family visiting) to evaluate my case. Come early Monday morning Cynthia and Family were siting on a Court room bench with me.
She had taken a Good part of her Father's Day Weekend to prepare my case before the court and traveled two hours "early thirty" Monday to have the court to acknowledge her as my co-counsel and at noon to present a motion to dismiss all 4 charges. Because of her arguments before the court, ALL 4 charges were later dismissed! If the legal system had more Cynthia Counts, those condensing "lawyer" jokes would most likely disappear! Bottom Line - 16 Months of sleepless nights vs. a weekend

I was served in April '14 in GA; this was the only time I have been sued. It was a terribly stressful time because I was struggling to make ends meet and with two small babies in diapers, my wife and I did not know where to turn for help. I asked the lawyer of a colleague if he knew a good attorney to help me in a defamation lawsuit. Without any hesitation, he emphatically told me, “Cynthia Counts is the best there is for that type of case”. The fact that my colleague’s lawyer knew of Cynthia and was so adamant in stating her abilities immediately gave me confidence because the referring lawyer is a criminal defense attorney whose clientele and case load are in a different realm of law than what my case was, yet he knew of Cynthia Counts and her abilities.
I immediately called Ms. Counts and let her know who referred me to her. We agreed to have an initial consultation to discuss the case. Not having any previous experience in legal matters, I was concerned about being kept in the loop and having a comprehensive understanding of what was taking place, as I tend to be somewhat of a micro-manager, which is a difficult thing to be in a subject for which I had no formal training. It became apparent to me immediately that there was an added benefit when I learned that Ms. Counts is an adjunct professor, as she was able to frame things for me in an easy-to-understand context. Her teaching experience was also an added benefit because when I expressed my desire to be able to assist in my own defense, she gladly provided me the opportunity and gave me specific research assignments and tasks to be performed in order to help myself. She would then take the time to explain the results, meaning and impact of my research while all the time continuously teaching me and citing other precedents and GA case law concerning defamation and Free Speech. She also provided an in-depth and invaluable education in Georgia’s Anti-SLAPP legislation, background and intent.
Furthermore, once we entered the courtroom for the first time and found out that the Plaintiff’s attorney steered the intended purpose of the initial hearing from evidentiary to something else, I got to see what Ms. Counts was really made of. She basically walked into an ambush on that first day in court and we were not prepared at all for where the first day lead us because it was supposed to be an evidentiary hearing that ended up being bifurcated, for which the first part was never disclosed in advance by the Counsel for Plaintiff but for which he was fully prepared. So we started our first day in court with the deck stacked against us, but in the end it did not matter because Ms. Counts knew the law.
Because of her vast knowledge and depth of understanding of Georgia law, Federal law, Constitutional Law and her intimate familiarity with the Georgia Anti-SLAPP statute and precedents, she was able to successfully ward off the attack by Counsel for Plaintiff not only that day but two days later when we continued. Her courtroom delivery over those two days resulted in turning an ambush, and potential disaster, into the Judge issuing an order that protected my speech and resulted in Plaintiff’s immediate dismissal of the case.
Throughout all phases of the case, Ms. Counts was always available either in person or via proxy through one of her diligent and well-written associates. Even when time constraints and schedule conflicts would have prevented other people from making time to talk, she was available and responsive through holidays, weekends, as well as nights. She is passionate about her work, knowledgeable about the law and is one of few that still believes in the truth above all else. If you are being sued for defamation or other alleged First Amendment violations and you were right and you were just in your actions, Cynthia Counts is the lawyer for you.
She is highly recommended by me; simply 'Google' Cynthia Counts and the results speak for themselves.

Cynthia worked on my trial on false criminal charges that stemmed from a civil rights violation. She has demonstrated a thorough and in-depth knowledge of First Amendment and other constitutional and civil rights case decisions and a willingness to think outside the box. I consider her to be a first-rate attorney, especially for media and free speech matters.
When questioning one of the witnesses at my trial, Cynthia was matter-of-fact, calm, and professional in working inconsistencies out of the witness. When writing motions, she cited an extensive case law history that applied to my specific case - demonstrating to me that she works hard on her cases.
Also, Cynthia is one of the most ethical and trustworthy attorneys I would recommend - her manner of speaking is very straightforward and her presentation skills are first-rate. She arrived early for my continuance sign-ins to avoid the huge waste of time that I've seen other defense attorneys put on their clients, and her court time was used efficiently and appropriately during trial. It was a truly healing experience being vindicated at trial.
As a client, I have been treated with respect and dignity and was followed-up with promptly on questions. This is one lawyer I will always have on my short list to refer other people to, especially regarding civil rights matters.

I hired Mr. Rose a couple months ago to help with a legal situation I had been dealing with for a while. Although reaching out to several different attorneys, Mr. Rose was the only one who was attentive enough to make me feel that he had my best interest in mind. He was attentive to every detail and he truly had a sense of urgency with dealing with my case—which helped ease my mind. Legal cases can be very stressful, but I must say Mr. Rose was very patient with all my questions and constantly made himself available to address my concerns. On top of his expertise in crisis management and his professionalism, he was very personable which made it easier to discuss any problems or frustrations I had with my case. Mr. Rose will definitely be my attorney of choice if I ever find myself in a legal mess again.

I would recommend Aurielle to anyone that needs to get the job done, without having to worry if it will be completed correctly. Her personality made the experience even more enjoyable. She offered a sense of relief when I saw how relatable she was and understood the goal I had in mind. I will definitely be hiring Aurielle again in the future.

I recently purchased some exclusive mortgage leads from an internet company for my small business. I ended up receiving old re-hashed mortgage leads and not what I had paid for. I was not able to obtain a refund from my credit card company because I was strung along by this merchant for so long that the date of dispute had passed. Jenny helped me to review the contract I had signed and informed me of my rights and options. She shared insights that I had not even considered. She then sent a demand letter for my refund to the merchant directly. I will definitely be a more cautious and savvy internet shopper in the future because of Jenny's advise. She is very knowledgeable and a hard working professional. I found her to be highly empathetic and thorough in my situation even though there was not much for her to gain.

Cynthia negotiated my lease for a commercial retail space. I’m so glad she did, she got me much more favorable terms to the lease.
Andrew Kaiser helped me with a business separation agreement in getting out of a business partnership that was not at all amicable and got nastier by the day.

John has represented my insureds in catastrophic matters for over 15 years now. He is very responsive having developed a first class litigation team that surrounds him. He is the most knowledgeable attorney that I deal with across the country. John understands the importance of providing excellent service at all levels, aside from his actual legal expertise, which is vital for the type of cases I handle and assign to counsel.
I have seen John try numerous cases, and he is outstanding in trial. He has a commanding presence in the courtroom, and can connect with jurors from all walks of life. I handle cases from Los Angeles to Miami and still consider John as my home run hitter.

This reputation stems from his superlative ability in the court room. He comes to trial well prepared and has a remarkable ability to think on his feet when the inevetible unexpected adversity occurs. He can speak to jurors across the spectrum and is always well received. The judges respect him and even the most Plaintff oriented judge will give John a fair deal. John is experienced in catastrophic birth injury cases and is frequently hired by our cleints to assist local counsel in venues across the country.

He was much smarter than my opposition and I came out way on top. I’m very satisfied with his clauses and he definitely made me feel like he was worth using in my situation.
Thank you so much guys, I’ll be back!

They handled two unrelated legal matters with different in house attorneys and both were very knowledgeable in each situation.

It was highly satisfying to have Jaymen as my lawyer . He is not only knowledgeable in his field but also provides the perfect guidance even in sensitive issues while working as my defense lawyer in a highly charged divorce case.
He was responsive and sympathetic even during non-working hours providing me with the legal know how . Also he kept me well informed regarding our case while explaining all the legal intricacies whenever they presented themselves. I will always remain grateful to him.

While our company has used other types of lawyers, in other business ventures, this time we found our self needing a franchisee attorney for an urgent business matter. After speaking to a member of the AAHOA, I was directed to call Mr. Chavda. I made contact in the evening hours and to my complete surprise he responded immediately. I knew he was a perfect fit and wanted to hire him. From the way he and his assistant handled our first conversation of "information gathering," to the way that Mr. Chavda spoke with me, making me extremely comfortable and resolving our issues in under 10 hours. When we got into the specifics, he seemed very knowledgeable on the finer points of the agreement and explained clearly how they could affect our company. His experiences as a business lawyer definitely comes into play here. Ultimately, the issue was resolved professionally between the franchiser and our self. Simply put, you can trust him and his staff. As a bonus they seem very nice and genuine people. I would highly recommend Mr. Chavda to anyone seeking counsel for Franchise/Business/employment Law.

Lindsay was soooo helpful especially in my situation with this case. I've been in a very low spot in life and Lindsay was there for me whenever I needed her whether it being about the case or talking me through my anxiety with everything thats been going on . Whenever she said something would get done it would get done when she said it would , with if not better results than what was expected . Lindsay was also very empathetic towards my situation and It made me feel a lot comfortable because she made me feel like I can speak to her not just as an attorney but as a friend or more like family . Most people in this world don't give that kind of time and love to people anymore. Let me just say in this field or work , there needs to be more Lindsay's. Lindsay's communication was awesome and that means a lot coming from someone with semi poor social skills, anxiety , and semi poor memory . She was also VERY patient with me as I said I am in a rough spot in life right now , with that being said I would not get back to her as quickly as I should have sometimes but she still got the job done even when I was idle. Lindsay is so nice and made me feel extremely comfortable whilst communicating about the case and if I did not understand certain terms she would break it all down for me in a way I could understand she would even repeat it a few times just so I could really comprehend what's in motion . I'm 23 years old with that being said I don't know too much about a lot at this point in my life and Lindsay made sure to educate me on topics I was completed lost on. Lindsay really shined a lot of light on my situation and I'm very thankful she was put in front of me to be my attorney. I wouldn't have asked for anyone else . Thank you Lindsay , I wish there were more people like you in this world .

Drew and his team have helped me through one of the most difficult times in my life. I have been accused of breaching a business contract. The plaintiff has filed numerous false allegations against me and are trying to legally harass me. Drew and his team have defended me every step of the way. Fighting for my rights not only as a business but as a human being. I definitely recommend him to anyone who is looking for someone who is a fierce lawyer but also a kind person. Him and his team care about their clients lives, not just about their money. Thank you Drew, for everything!

What a Business Lawyer Can Do for You
A business lawyer provides critical legal guidance and support to entrepreneurs, startups, and established businesses. Whether you are forming a new company, drafting contracts, or navigating complex regulations, a business attorney ensures you are legally protected and operating within the law. They can also help prevent legal disputes or represent you in negotiations, transactions, or lawsuits that arise during the course of business operations.
Business lawyers have expertise in areas such as business formation, contract law, intellectual property, employment law, mergers and acquisitions, and corporate governance. They ensure that your business is compliant with relevant laws and help mitigate risks that could threaten your company's success.
When Should I Hire a Business Lawyer?
Hiring a business lawyer is essential at various stages of business development, including:
- Forming a business: When deciding on the best structure for your company (LLC, corporation, partnership, etc.), a lawyer can guide you through the registration and compliance process.
- Drafting contracts: If you need contracts for employees, partners, suppliers, or clients, a lawyer ensures these documents are legally sound and in your best interest.
- Mergers, acquisitions, or dissolutions: If you are buying, selling, or dissolving a company, legal counsel is critical to avoid costly mistakes.
- Compliance and regulatory issues: A lawyer can help navigate complex regulations, particularly in industries like healthcare, finance, or tech.
- Resolving disputes: Whether it's contract disagreements, intellectual property infringement, or employment issues, a business lawyer helps mediate, negotiate, or litigate on your behalf.
What Does a Business Lawyer Do?
Business lawyers provide a wide range of services that cater to different legal needs of a business. They can:
- Help you choose the best legal structure for your business.
- Draft, review, and negotiate contracts with employees, suppliers, customers, or business partners.
- Ensure regulatory compliance with local, state, and federal laws.
- Advise on tax strategies to minimize your business's tax burden.
- Assist with intellectual property protection, such as trademarks, patents, and copyrights.
- Handle mergers, acquisitions, and business sales, ensuring all legal paperwork is in order.
- Resolve disputes through negotiation, arbitration, or litigation.
How Are Business Lawyers Paid?
Business lawyers typically charge either by the hour or on a flat-fee basis, depending on the complexity of the work. Common payment structures include:
- Hourly rates: The lawyer charges based on the time spent working on your case. Rates vary depending on the lawyer's experience and location.
- Flat fees: For certain tasks, such as incorporating a business or drafting a standard contract, a lawyer may offer a flat fee.
- Retainer: Some businesses may hire a lawyer on retainer, paying a fixed amount each month to have ongoing access to legal services.
The payment structure is often discussed during an initial consultation so you can choose the one that best suits your business needs and budget.
How Much Does a Business Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a business lawyer depends on factors such as:
- The complexity of the legal issue: More complex matters, like mergers or intellectual property disputes, typically cost more than routine tasks like contract drafting.
- The lawyer's experience and location: More experienced lawyers or those in larger cities often charge higher fees.
- The nature of the billing arrangement: Hourly rates can range from $150 to $1,000 or more, depending on the lawyer's expertise. Flat fees are usually available for simpler matters like forming an LLC or drafting a standard contract.
It's essential to discuss fee structures upfront to avoid surprises.
Top Questions to Ask a Business Lawyer
Before hiring a business lawyer, ask the following questions during your consultation:
-
What is your experience with businesses like mine?
Find out if the lawyer has handled legal issues for companies in your industry. -
What services do you offer?
Ensure the lawyer can meet all your business's legal needs, from contract drafting to dispute resolution. -
What are your fees, and how do you bill?
Get clarity on how you'll be charged - whether by the hour, flat fee, or retainer. -
How do you handle conflicts of interest?
Ask how the lawyer ensures there is no conflict in representing your business. -
Can you provide references from other business clients?
Speaking with past clients will give you an idea of the lawyer's expertise and professionalism. -
Do you have experience in my specific industry?
Industry-specific knowledge can be crucial, especially in highly regulated fields like healthcare or finance.
How to Check the Credibility of a Business Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable business lawyer:
- Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is in good standing and has no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for client reviews or testimonials: Online reviews, testimonials, or word of mouth from other business owners can provide insight into the lawyer's reliability and effectiveness.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should have satisfied clients who can vouch for their services.
- Check professional memberships: Membership in respected legal organizations (such as the American Bar Association or a local business lawyer association) can signal credibility.
- Review their website and professional profile: A well-established lawyer typically has a professional website showcasing their areas of expertise, credentials, and case success.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a business lawyer, prepare the following:
- A description of your business and its structure: This will help the lawyer understand your legal needs.
- Any current contracts or agreements: If you're seeking contract advice, bring copies of existing contracts.
- A list of legal issues or concerns: Be ready to discuss any potential legal challenges, such as regulatory compliance, disputes, or transactions.
- Financial documents: If applicable, bring financial records related to the legal matter you're seeking help with.
- Questions about fees and billing: Ensure you understand the lawyer’s payment structure and fees upfront.
By preparing these materials, you can ensure that your first meeting with a business lawyer is productive and informative.
