I can’t say enough good things about Ms. Williams and her amazing team of women. I had a scary ex who had walked all over me in the state we lived before and my previous lawyers did not have my back and had written up horrible orders that gave my ex the ability to mess with my daughters life to try and hurt me. Ms. Williams nipped that right in the butt and got us new orders written up that protected me and my daughter. On top of that she was able to finally put him in his place and get us tie breaker. Something we have never been able to have in my daughter’s entire life. My previous lawyer I had to baby sit and I had to fight for my daughter in court while this lawyer stood by and watched my cry. my experience with Ms. Williams was the complete opposite. She had my back the entire time and I am eternally grateful and will contact her if we ever need her again.

Candace is the best of the best! When she took on my case, her and her team spent countless hours and late nights on my case. It was a mess. She cleaned it up and won our case in court. She is so professional but is also a bulldog. She won’t stop until she gets what the client wants. She is amazing! You won’t regret hiring her!

My family and I employed the services of Natalie & her team (Heather) for my custody case involving my daughter, whose mother absconded with her from the state.
My case is a long & complicated one, but what I will say is that until my family & I found Natalie, I had no hope.
After Natalie & Heather became part of my team I felt I was in good hands!
Heather is responsive, professional, compassionate and very personable. She always responded promptly to my questions, concerns, and made me feel heard.
Natalie is an absolute light-beam in a dark room. I went through 2 different Georgia attorneys before finding Natalie & the difference in quality of representation is OBVIOUS.
Natalie is: professional, encouraging, energetic, enthusiastic, compassionate & has a way of putting you at ease when you are in the midst of the worst experience you have ever been through.
It takes a very specific type of attorney to be effective in family law, in my opinion they MUST be: compassionate, professional, knowledgeable, passionate, dedicated & responsive.
Natalie is all those things and above!
She & her team are the only ones I’ve met along this journey that made me feel heard, supported and actually fought for me. I am beyond grateful to have found Natalie & her team!
My only regret? I wish I found them sooner! I wish I had skipped the heartache of pouring my heart out time & again for attorneys, who at the end of the day didn’t care. Natalie & her team care.
They will work long hours, weekends, and they will be there quite literally “around the clock” for you.
Please, if you are going through a situation like mine - go for an attorney who will actually be there for you.
Natalie & her team are it!

First off let me say that I highly highly recommend this amazing team!
From the beginning Emily has been very helpful and extremely attentive to our needs and getting medical care we desperately needed. Rob, Emily and Vanessa made this entire process so easy and made my family and I very comfortable with them handling our case. We knew they were there to fight for us!!! Emily has been available to answer any questions we had at any time of the day or night. She never gave up on fighting for our case to get the maximum amount. She is a fierce fighter who has your back no matter what. I am soo thankful that I had this amazing team representing us in the case.
I know who I will be calling if I ever need a lawyer again.
You will not be disappointed in this amazing team and their efforts to work on your behalf. They never give up and that’s what we need when dealing with low ball offers for a case.
Thank you so much Emily, Vanessa and Rob for all your hard work on our case!

Working with Rob Chambers, Emily Cox, and Vanessa Gonzalez on my personal injury cases has been such a blessing. They make everything so easy and make sure you understand every step of the process. They truly care about each of their clients and the outcome of each case. As soon as I came to them after a horrible car accident that left me injured, they immediately jumped on it and got to work. I didn't have to worry about a thing. They have been amazing and I recommend them highly. It has been a pleasure working with them.

I came to him with a difficult situation and he absolutely got me the best out come. I’m more than grateful for him and Tom Womack continues to work tirelessly to end another case we are working on which has been very hard for me, however I trust them with everything because they have proven absolutely worth it. I recommend them every time.

Chris Conowal represented me in two different situations this year. Chris strongly advocated for me and made me feel like I had someone in my corner that was going to fight for me to get me what I wanted. Chris is transparent, honest, and will not put up with nonsense from the opposing party. If you’re looking for an attorney that will fight and work for you, Chris is your guy!

I feel that Chris takes on more than he should and does not allot the appropriate focus needed in certain matters. Several request I made in working with Chris on 2 cases went completely unanswered, most others I would have to ask for more than once. Several administrative mishaps with both cases ranging from mistakes on documents, misunderstanding of court information by his office, and not being made aware of rate increases between the two cases. A lot of promises were made that were never followed through with. Very unpleasant experience.

to sincerely thank Jennifer McCall’s legal office for their genuine services. I had worked with Jennifer before in a previous divorce case and knew that she gets the job done. This time, Jennifer was not my first choice for representation because this child was born out of marriage and I associated her with family law and divorces, not custody. So I went with a referral from a friend that was way more expensive. That law office and attorney did not listen to me or fight for me or my daughter at all. I fired them and remembered custody cases are family law and and proceeded to hire Jennifer for this custody case. With Jennifer’s office I always felt heard throughout the entire process. This was important to me for the reason that I’m a father fighting for the rights to be with his child. We all know how much of an uphill battle it can be for fathers fighting for their children in the justice system. Jennifer took the time to listen to my story and the facts. Then she fought to have a guardian ad litem appointed. Her office always kept me up to date with how the case was progressing. Jennifer cares about people. She cares about me. She cares about you and your children. She will go the extra distance to fight for you and your children throughout your personal struggle. From the bottom of my heart Thank You, Jennifer.

Two and a half years ago our very happy and peaceful life in retirement came to a very sudden halt. We were asked to drive 4-5 hour from our home in order to ensure the safety and welfare of our baby grandson. The Juvenile Court of Hall County, GA gave my wife and I temporary guardianship of our 10 month old grandson. Three weeks later when we returned to court it became clear to us that we would need a very good Lawyer in order to continue to do what was in the best interest of our grandson. I asked a few people for the name of a good family law attorney in Gainesville, GA. One name was always at the top of their list. It was Susan Brown, JD. Susan turned out to be "a godsend" and the best family lawyer I had seen in over 65 years of my professional life. Susan was a smart, experience attorney who had a gifted knowledge of Georgia family Law. I very highly recommend Susan Brown to help you with any family law matters. Thank you Susan

Kelly Miles is the lawyer who lawyers call for their own divorce, child support, and child custody needs. As an attorney, I did my homework before I retained Kelly to represent me in my personal divorce, and my research revealed that Kelly Miles is hands down the best domestic relations attorney in the State of Georgia. Kelly knows the intricacies of Georgia domestic relations law, and she pays attention to minute yet meaningful details that many less experienced attorneys would easily overlook. Kelly provided me with sound legal guidance including strategic recommendations that helped accomplish my objectives. I was impressed at every turn with her acumen and her knowledge of the legal authorities as they applied to the specific facts of my case. It was readily apparent throughout my divorce that I had the more skilled and experienced advocate on my side. Kelly is a consummate professional, and she obtained a very favorable result in my case. Kelly went above and beyond the call of duty to help me including even braving an impending winter storm to attend mediation for my case where we ultimately reached a resolution. I highly recommend Kelly Miles to anyone in need of legal representation in any aspect of domestic relations litigation in Georgia.

I had some serious and complicated residual issues from my divorce several years ago, and had previously been burned and set back by a few 'very seasoned' (and very terrible/burnt-out) attorneys, before Kelly. Based on my situation and prior experiences in court, I was fully expecting (and dreading) that my only option would be to return there, and fight for something with little chances of prevailing. I met with Kelly, gave her a pile of paperwork and notes to review, with the agreement that we would conference call soon to discuss her recommendations. During that initial meeting, Kelly impressed me with her both professional and caring review of my situation. She was quick to dismiss/filter things that weren't relevant, asked very direct questions, and outlined how we would progress. A few weeks later, when we conference called to review, she recommended three options, with the dreaded court date as #3 (last). Although I didn't believe that my ex-wife would accept anything, I agreed to start with Option #1, expecting it to lead to #2 and then #3. Kelly prepared what we needed for Option #1, sent it to me for approval, and then presented it to my ex-wife. To my surprise and relief, my ex accepted our requests. I firmly believe that what Kelly presented and how she presented it (tone) nudged my ex into agreement. I think that Kelly means business, and she was able to convey this to my ex in a non-threatening, yet motivating way. She has saved me a lot, because I believe most attorneys would have signed me up for court dates and lots of expense, more concerned for their billable hours than my welfare.
Lost faith in or skeptical about attorneys? I was, big time. Kelly has restored my faith that there are good lawyers out there that care and want what is best for their clients. I highly recommend this professional.
Thanks Kelly!

I hired Kelly specifically on a recommendation from a family member. I knew I needed someone who really knew what they were doing for my case, and knew I needed to be prepared for a potentially ugly fight. I made it clear from the beginning that I wanted to be fair, but not taken advantage of in resolving my case.
Kelly was purely professional in her handling. She made sure I was prepared each step of the way, and worked with me to provide a fair and equitable settlement of my case.
While Kelly is not the cheapest attorney out there, I knew going in that you get what you pay for. And I knew I better be prepared for a fight and not need to, rather than need to fight and be unprepared. Kelly's fees were reasonable for a top flight attorney, and quite frankly one of the best investments I think I have ever made.
If you have a case where you know you will need an attorney who knows how the process works and can protect you in the difficult process of a divorce, I don't think you could find anyone better. I would highly recommend her.

First off let me say that I highly highly recommend this amazing team!
From the beginning Emily has been very helpful and extremely attentive to our needs and getting medical care we desperately needed. Rob, Emily and Vanessa made this entire process so easy and made my family and I very comfortable with them handling our case. We knew they were there to fight for us!!! Emily has been available to answer any questions we had at any time of the day or night. She never gave up on fighting for our case to get the maximum amount. She is a fierce fighter who has your back no matter what. I am soo thankful that I had this amazing team representing us in the case.
I know who I will be calling if I ever need a lawyer again.
You will not be disappointed in this amazing team and their efforts to work on your behalf. They never give up and that’s what we need when dealing with low ball offers for a case.
Thank you so much Emily, Vanessa and Rob for all your hard work on our case!

Working with Rob Chambers, Emily Cox, and Vanessa Gonzalez on my personal injury cases has been such a blessing. They make everything so easy and make sure you understand every step of the process. They truly care about each of their clients and the outcome of each case. As soon as I came to them after a horrible car accident that left me injured, they immediately jumped on it and got to work. I didn't have to worry about a thing. They have been amazing and I recommend them highly. It has been a pleasure working with them.

I can’t say enough good things about Ms. Williams and her amazing team of women. I had a scary ex who had walked all over me in the state we lived before and my previous lawyers did not have my back and had written up horrible orders that gave my ex the ability to mess with my daughters life to try and hurt me. Ms. Williams nipped that right in the butt and got us new orders written up that protected me and my daughter. On top of that she was able to finally put him in his place and get us tie breaker. Something we have never been able to have in my daughter’s entire life. My previous lawyer I had to baby sit and I had to fight for my daughter in court while this lawyer stood by and watched my cry. my experience with Ms. Williams was the complete opposite. She had my back the entire time and I am eternally grateful and will contact her if we ever need her again.

Candace is the best of the best! When she took on my case, her and her team spent countless hours and late nights on my case. It was a mess. She cleaned it up and won our case in court. She is so professional but is also a bulldog. She won’t stop until she gets what the client wants. She is amazing! You won’t regret hiring her!

The lawyer herself is nice, but I called to speak with her about my court date and the receptionist on the phone was extremely, extremely rude.

Whether you're going through a divorce, seeking custody of your children, or drafting a prenuptial agreement, a family law lawyer ensures your rights are protected and your interests are represented.
Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?
Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:
- Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
- Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.
- Child support: Whether you’re seeking child support or defending against a claim, a lawyer can help ensure the appropriate amount is calculated and enforced.
- Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: A lawyer can help draft or review agreements that protect your assets in case of divorce.

- Domestic violence or restraining orders: If you're a victim of domestic violence or being falsely accused, a lawyer can help you obtain or challenge protective orders.
- Paternity cases: If there are questions about the paternity of a child, a lawyer can help establish or dispute legal fatherhood.
Hiring a lawyer early can prevent issues from escalating, and they can offer you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome in emotionally charged situations.

A family law lawyer provides a wide range of services depending on your specific legal needs. Their responsibilities may include:
- Advising on legal rights and options: Helping you understand your legal rights regarding divorce, child custody, support, and other family law issues.
- Filing legal documents: Drafting and filing petitions, motions, and agreements with the court, such as divorce papers, custody agreements, or support orders.
- Representing clients in court: Arguing your case in front of a judge if a settlement can’t be reached through negotiation or mediation.
- Mediation and negotiation: Assisting with alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation, to reach agreements on issues like custody, property division, and support without going to trial.

How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?
Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:
- Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
- Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
- Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.
The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.

- Flat fees: For simpler cases, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.

Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer
Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:
-
What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption. -
How will you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved. -
What are the possible outcomes of my case?
An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case. -
What is your approach to resolving disputes?
Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals. -
How long do you expect my case to take?
While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases. -
Who will be handling my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.
How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:
- Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
- Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
- Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
- Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:
- Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
- List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
- Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
- Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
- Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.
Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
