Called Mr. Porter to discuss a traffic citation and what would be the steps to take care of it, I've got the best consultation and advice. The ticket was reduced to just a fee (no record, no points). Professionalism and honesty are the best words to describe him. Would highly recommend. Thank you again!.

I can’t recommend Lyle highly enough! Navigating my divorce was an incredibly challenging time, but Lyle’s professionalism, expertise, and compassion made all the difference. He was meticulous in managing every detail, always proactive, and kept my best interests at the forefront. Lyle not only handled the legal complexities with ease but also provided genuine support, guiding me through tough decisions with clarity and understanding. He was available whenever I had questions, always responsive, and made me feel truly represented. If you need someone who is dedicated, knowledgeable, and empathetic, Lyle is the attorney you want on your side!

Lots of attorneys and choices in the 🍑 City. Lyle Porter came highly recommended to me by a dear family friend (another high powered and equally high caliber attorney in Memphis) to handle some complex stuff in a nasty 4- year divorce, corrupt politics across two states here in the South and simply knocked and rocked the cover off the Ball. The Freddie Freeman of law in Atlanta. Don’t be fooled by his good looks and great attire - Lyle can work a court room for all the right reasons and negotiate before heading into one like only one man I ever else knew, my father. Genuine, authentic and a Man of his word. Chelsea, his right hand woman is a blessing/ and dog lover. True character at this firm. Hey Lyle, thank you my man. ☝️. dt Unpaid parking 🎟️ tend to add up. Best of the best in the ATL. #southerncharm and gets it ✅. Connections!

"I can't recommend Mark Hill enough. His thorough investigation into my citations, including a wrongful aggressive driving charge, was impressive. Mark was always quick to answer my questions, either by text or phone, and consistently reminded me not to stress, which was invaluable given my anxiety. His deep knowledge of the legal system shone through, leading to both my tickets being dismissed without additional prosecution. If you need legal assistance, Mark is your guy!"

I want to start by saying that we are grateful for the end result Mark Hill was able to arrange for my boyfriend Steve's, misdemeanor criminal case in Forsyth County. However, our overall experience with his office was extremely frustrating, unprofessional, and stressful. After paying the fee upfront, we didn’t hear back for about a year. When we called to check in, we were told cases take time, which is fine—but there were no updates unless we reached out, even after requesting monthly updates. Once the case moved forward, communication worsened, and there was confusion about court dates and plea arrangements. Mark was absent for two court appearances, and during the second, his assistant attorney, Terri Wells, tried pressuring my boyfriend into taking a plea deal in the courtroom without Mark’s presence. We had to delay the case again. After this, we asked for a meeting with Mark at his office to clarify our options. When we arrived, Sarah Freeman, a paralegal we had never interacted in-depth with before, informed me that I was not allowed to attend the meeting, even though I had been involved in every step of the case until then (per my boyfriend's request). Fine. When I asked when this decision was made, she told me that "the office" had decided on this earlier that morning—as in SEVERAL HOURS before I had taken time off work on a Wednesday and commuted 3 hours to and from the office. When I voiced my frustration, she accused me of being "aggressive". While the case outcome was positive, I cannot recommend this office due to the lack of communication, professionalism, and respect. The experience, especially with Ms. Freeman, was unacceptably stressful and unpleasant.

Exceptional Divorce Attorney – A Fierce Advocate for Justice Going through a highly contested divorce is one of the most difficult experiences a person can endure, and having the right attorney makes all the difference. After a traumatic experience with my first attorney—who was ultimately fired from her firm—I knew I needed someone aggressive, strategic, and unshakable in the courtroom. After extensive research, I found Candice Davis, and hiring her was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. My divorce was contentious, with an ex-wife who demanded everything and refused to compromise, and an opposing attorney who was more of a ruthless bully than a professional. I needed someone who could not only defend me but turn the tide in my favor—and Candice did exactly that. From day one, she was laser-focused, well-prepared, and fearless. In court, she absolutely devastated my ex-wife on the stand and completely unraveled the opposing attorney’s aggressive tactics. He was so off balance that he resorted to making nonsensical statements while I was testifying. Candice’s sharp legal mind, commanding presence, and ability to expose contradictions turned the case in my favor. The final hearing’s outcome was extremely favorable, and I owe it entirely to Candice’s skill, preparation, and tenacity. She took what felt like an impossible situation and delivered justice and peace of mind. If you need an attorney who will fight relentlessly for you, outmaneuver the opposition, and secure the best possible outcome, look no further than Candice Davis. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

If you need an attentive, sharp, diligent, and EXPERT attorney, hire Crystal Wright! I knew I had the RIGHT person representing me when I found her. I have had the pleasure of being represented by Attorney Wright twice, once for a custody issue and a second time for a divorce. Each time she was AMAZING! Her ability to hear me, understand my concerns, and advise me really put my mind at ease. In both cases, her dedication, experience, and knowledge of the law allowed me to achieve an outcome that was in my best interests. I feel like I got my life back because of her. 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Thank you for EVERYTHING, Attorney Wright!

From the beginning, she demonstrated deep knowledge of family law, guiding me through the entire process with confidence and professionalism. What stood out the most was her attention to detail and genuine concern for my situation. Attorney Caycie was always available to answer my questions, kept me updated on every development, and provided clear explanations of complex legal matters, ensuring I fully understood my options. Thanks to Attorney Caycie's expertise and dedication, we achieved a successful modification that best serve the needs of my children and ensures a fair arrangement. I highly recommend the whole team of Daniels & Taylor, P.C. - Lawrenceville, GA, especially Attorney Caycie, to anyone seeking legal representation in family law matters.

I had the pleasure of working with LaGrone Law, specifically with Safisha Thembeka, who represented my family member in a challenging case. While the process took some time, the outcome was more than worth it. Safisha was an absolute powerhouse—dedicated, energetic, and incredibly thorough. She went above and beyond, diving deep into the details of the case, leaving no stone unturned. Her commitment and passion for our case were clear from the start; she treated us like family, making sure we felt supported and informed throughout the entire process. What stood out the most was how Safisha handled everything with such care and professionalism, and in the end, she achieved an incredible result: the case was dismissed without going to trial. I truly believe her tireless work and advocacy were the key to this outcome. If you're looking for someone who will fight for you and your family until the very end, I highly recommend Safisha Thembeka and LaGrone Law. They are dedicated, reliable, and truly have your best interests at heart.

Anthony was recommended to me by a friend and for a good reason. Anthony displayed confidence from the start and was very attentive to every detail in my divorce case. His experience and advocacy was exactly what I needed in what could've become a costly and drawn out divorce proceeding. Nevertheless, if I would've had to fight; this is the attorney who I would want on my side. Highly recommend.

What a Child Custody Lawyer Can Do for You

A child custody lawyer specializes in helping parents navigate legal matters related to the custody and care of their children, particularly in the context of divorce, separation, or other family disputes. These lawyers assist with determining custody arrangements, drafting parenting plans, and advocating for your rights in court. They also help resolve disputes over physical custody (where the child lives), legal custody (who makes decisions for the child), visitation rights, and modifications to existing custody orders.

Whether you're going through a divorce or need to change an existing custody arrangement, a child custody lawyer can help you understand your rights and protect your child's best interests throughout the legal process.

When Should I Hire a Child Custody Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a child custody lawyer in several situations, especially when disputes arise or complex legal issues affect your parental rights. Some common reasons to hire a child custody lawyer include:

  • Divorce or separation: If you're going through a divorce or separation and need to establish custody and visitation arrangements, a lawyer can help ensure the custody order reflects your child's best interests.
  • Disputed custody cases: If you and the other parent cannot agree on custody or visitation terms, a lawyer can advocate for your rights in court and help you develop a strong case.
  • Modification of custody orders: If you need to change an existing custody arrangement due to changes in circumstances (e.g., relocation, changes in the child’s needs), a lawyer can help file a modification request.
  • Parental alienation: If the other parent is interfering with your relationship with your child, a lawyer can help address these issues through legal action.
  • Domestic violence or abuse: If there is a history of domestic violence or abuse, a lawyer can help protect you and your child by requesting restraining orders and advocating for appropriate custody arrangements.
  • Grandparent or third-party custody: If you are a grandparent or another relative seeking custody or visitation rights, a lawyer can guide you through the legal process.
  • Paternity disputes: In cases where paternity is in question, a lawyer can assist with establishing or challenging paternity, which may affect custody and visitation rights.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help protect your parental rights and ensure that the custody arrangement is in your child's best interests.

What Does a Child Custody Lawyer Do?

A child custody lawyer provides a variety of legal services to help parents resolve custody disputes and secure favorable custody arrangements for their children. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Filing custody petitions: Helping you file the necessary paperwork to request custody or visitation rights and ensuring all legal procedures are followed.
  • Negotiating custody agreements: Assisting in negotiating custody and visitation arrangements, often working toward a mutually beneficial parenting plan without going to court.
  • Representing you in court: If you and the other parent cannot agree on custody terms, representing you in court by presenting evidence and making legal arguments to support your case.
  • Drafting parenting plans: Helping you draft a comprehensive parenting plan that outlines the schedule for physical custody, decision-making responsibilities, and visitation.
  • Handling child support issues: Assisting with related issues such as child support, ensuring that financial obligations are properly calculated and enforced.
  • Modifying custody orders: Helping you request a modification from the court if you need to change an existing custody arrangement due to significant life changes.
  • Mediating custody disputes: Acting as a mediator to help both parents reach an agreement on custody and visitation without the need for litigation.

How Are Child Custody Lawyers Paid?

Child custody lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case, the time involved, and the nature of the legal work. Common payment methods include:

  • Hourly rate: Most child custody lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer's experience and location. The total cost depends on the time spent preparing documents, negotiating, and representing you in court.
  • Flat fee: For simple custody matters or uncontested custody agreements, some lawyers may offer a flat fee for specific services, such as drafting a parenting plan or filing a custody petition.
  • Retainer: Many lawyers require an upfront retainer fee, which is billed against as the lawyer works on your case. The amount varies based on the expected complexity and duration of the case.
  • Sliding scale or pro bono services: Some lawyers may offer reduced fees or pro bono (free) services for clients with limited financial means, particularly in cases involving domestic violence or other serious issues.

It’s important to discuss fees and payment arrangements with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will be charged and what services are included.

How Much Does a Child Custody Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a child custody lawyer depends on various factors, including the complexity of the case, whether it’s contested or uncontested, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost estimates include:

  • Uncontested custody cases: Legal fees may range from $1,500 to $5,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the paperwork and any negotiations.
  • Contested custody cases: Legal fees can range from $5,000 to $40,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the issues, the need for expert testimony, and the time spent in litigation.
  • Hourly rates: Lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or complex custody disputes.
  • Mediation services: If both parents agree to work through mediation, costs typically range from $1,000 to $5,000 or more for the mediation process.

Always ask for a clear cost estimate during your consultation to ensure that you understand the total legal fees and payment structure.

Top Questions to Ask a Child Custody Lawyer

Before hiring a child custody lawyer, it’s essential to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Some key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with child custody cases?
    Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, especially if your case involves complex issues like domestic violence, relocation, or paternity disputes.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, offers flat fees for certain services, or requires a retainer, and ask for an estimate of the total cost.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including potential challenges and expected outcomes.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Inquire about the expected timeline from filing the petition to reaching an agreement or going to trial.
  5. Will you personally handle my case?
    Ensure you know who will be managing your case and representing you in court.
  6. Can we pursue mediation or alternative dispute resolution?
    Ask whether the lawyer recommends mediation or other forms of dispute resolution to avoid a lengthy court battle.

How to Check the Credibility of a Child Custody Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable child custody lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and experience:

  • Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Look for family law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in family law and child custody cases.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge the lawyer’s professionalism and success in child custody matters.
  • Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on custody cases.
  • Check for certifications: Look for lawyers who are board-certified in family law or have memberships in organizations like the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML) or local family law sections.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a child custody lawyer, come prepared with relevant documents and information:

  • Court orders or existing custody agreements: Bring copies of any existing custody or visitation orders for the lawyer to review.
  • Communication with the other parent: Provide copies of emails, texts, or letters regarding custody, visitation, or disputes.
  • List of your child’s needs: Prepare a list of your child’s specific needs, such as medical care, education, and extracurricular activities.
  • Timeline of the case: Outline key events related to your custody case, including changes in living situations or parental involvement.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions about the custody process, legal fees, and the lawyer’s strategy for your case.

By being well-prepared, you can help the lawyer assess your situation effectively and receive the best possible advice for protecting your rights and your child’s well-being.
