I honestly don’t know where to begin. Mrs Armstrong has been one of the best blessings me and my family could have ever received. She was always upfront and honest, not sugar coating anything. When I say there was not one thing that she told us that didn’t happen just the way she said it would! We put out trust in her and she did an amazing job for my family’s situation. I would highly recommend Mrs Armstrong!!

This case has been scary & I was unsure of the outcome. Hiring Mrs. Armstrong was the best thing I could’ve done. She is knowledgeable, kind, receptive and knows her business. She fought for me and I was prepared for the worst… We won.
Thank you so much Attorney Armstrong

Mr. Harris stepped up to the plate and won our case by working with the truth. His excellent discernment and striving with high efficacy to focus on the real issues pointed us into the right direction to work with him. The result was bringing someone flying under the radar get exposed to the extent the law will not allow him to continue. It has brought our peace and mental health back to normal levels, being happy, before the problem started. Well worth the money to say the least. Chris Harris will make this happen!

After being denied by the big dawgs because my case wasn’t profitable enough to be important to them, this law firm swooped in and was there for me every step of the way at any time of day to answer all questions. They aggressively pursued getting me all the help I needed and were relentless with negotiations getting me the best return possible. With me being active duty they were extremely helpful being able to talk to me at all hours of the night and via email when required. I wouldn’t use another lawyer after my experience with these guys!

I can’t express my deepest appreciation for my attorney and his staff. I am new to Georgia and when I was accused in a new state, I felt lost. I had consults with a couple of attornies that wanted to do no work with high fees. My attorney listened to me and talked to me like a human and not a dollar sign. He checked on me and kept me informed of every decision through out the entire process. This is an experience that can’t be matched. I am happy to report that my case was dismissed with no record thanks to Awad Legal Team! Myself and my family are beyond grateful for your hard work and compassion! Thank you again!

Trinity Hundredmark represented me for my TPO and divorce case. I was charged double even tripled compared other two attorneys I hired later. She focused more on how much she can make from you. I would sincerely recommend running away from this firm.

I was more than satisfied how Trinity handled my Divorce. We had some difficult, to say the least, people to deal with. I always like to try & be one step ahead during situations such as this. We were always 5 steps ahead throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Trinity to anybody going through a similar situation.
I also want to give a shout out to Becca, her paralegal. I worked with her on a couple of separate things over the last couple of years & she is phenomenal!
Thanks,

First and foremost I would like to thank Frye Law Group for accepting me as a client. Secondly, I would like to thank Michael for representing me. It was short notice but he made sure that he was more than prepared. He understood what mattered to me most and was able to execute without hesitation and got my case dismissed. I may be quiet but I knew in this situation I would have to stand up for myself. I’m just glad I didn’t have to face this alone. Now I can get back to being the best dad that I know that I am. Thank you again. I will definitely be recommending Frye Law Group to anyone in need.

I will leave this review to those that want the honest truth and unfortunately, I need to leave this review vague enough so that her office doesn’t try and discredit my comments (I would challenge you to look at her responses to other negative reviews…some are obviously warranted) I don’t play.
Several years ago, I was going through the most challenging time of my young adult life. I had made some mistakes years prior and unfortunately found myself in a predicament, which lead me to an admission of guilt to my misdemeanor charge…per my council (Ms. Frye directly) I accepted a deal that was inaccurately presented to me in court. While dealing with the aftermath of my case, it was brought to my attention that Ms. Frye had given me an inaccurate and false narrative of my obligations to the court. I can’t go into extreme detail, but I can tell you, I have more than enough evidence of malpractice. I do not and will not take this lightly. As a working class medical professional, anyone that wants to partner with Ms. Frye I would recommend you head my warning.
I have a case worker overlooking my complaint to the Georgia board. As a criminal defense attorney, Ms. Frye does not want these facts to become public, but unfortunately this is the direction she would like to move forward with. She is unwilling to admit to the mistakes she made to the court (and myself), which the court has graciously provided me and my current attorneys (several years later, after the incident) with enough proof and evidence of said malpractice.
There are so many attorneys out there. This one will overcharge you and make it feel normal…and in my case, give you the worst outcome possible (with sprinkles of nasty, disrespectful and condescending attitude) while verbally giving you the wrong outcome of your case after the trial. I can’t make this up. I know I sound like someone recently hurt by the outcome of my case…that is incorrect. I advise any and everyone to challenge any potential attorney that you might be interested in to ask adequate questions and understand the realm of possibilities regarding your case. This was one of the worst mistakes I’ve made in my entire life, and I have really been struggling with it for years. I would not recommend Ms. Frye to my worst enemy.

I was driving through Atlanta late one night. Almosts got into an accident and was then pulled over. The officer had me get out of the car and had me do field evaluations. I was taken to jail for DUI. I hired Mr. Kevin Fisher and he was able to get the DUI changed to a much better outcome. Thank you Kevin. I appreciate your guidance.

I got a pretty bad speeding ticket because I was late going to my pregnant wife’s appointment to meet the specialist because she had a high risk pregnancy. The ticket I received was also a super speeder. My job requires that I have a clean record. I hired Kevin and he was able to help me get a great outcome. No points, no reporting to my MVR, this helps SO much because I work and drive a company vehicle for an insurance company. Kevin made the process very easy and seamless. Out of FOUR lawyers that I contacted, Kevin was the only one who was responsive, he was up front about his pricing and steps that I would need to take going forward. Most lawyers are lazy but not Kevin. I would hire Kevin again if ever needed his services! Thanks for the hard work Kevin!

As a father I pursued custody of my daughter twice due to continued substance issues with her mother. After being unsuccessful in my first case, I hired Catie and was able to get my second case moved to Cherokee county. Not only were we successful in being awarded custody but I was also awarded attorney fees. Catie and her team provided excellent communication throughout the entire process and delivered the desired results for my family. Thank you and I highly recommend Catie.

I had the privilege of working with Jennifer Gower Side and her paralegal, Scarlett, during a difficult family law matter, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their professionalism, expertise, and compassionate approach. From our initial consultation to the final resolution, Jennifer took the time to fully understand my situation and provided clear, honest advice every step of the way.
What stood out most was their ability to navigate the emotional complexity of my case while ensuring that all legal aspects were handled thoroughly and efficiently. They communicated with me regularly, answering any questions I had and addressing my concerns promptly, which helped alleviate a lot of stress during a challenging time.
I was particularly grateful for Jennifer’s attention to detail and her proactive approach to resolving issues before they became bigger problems. Her knowledge of family law is extensive, and she was able to provide solid strategies that worked in my best interest.
Thanks to Jennifer, I feel that I not only received expert legal representation, but I was also treated with kindness and respect throughout the process. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a skilled and caring family law attorney.

I have never worked with a lawyer so knowledgeable, aware, and invested in your best interest. Sara, i can never thank you enough for your perseverance and integrity for helping me along this four year ride. Dui to DISMISSAL. I couldn’t even believe my ears. The amount of professionalism and determination you have carried this case with, amazes me. Left my parents speechless in court, “wow, she’s really good”.

I had the misfortune of being cited for aggressive driving. The charge could have resulted in loss of employment.

I would highly recommend her in all of your misfortunes. Highly compassionate, approachable professional! Thank you Sara!

I wouldn’t have been able to survive this ordeal, without losing my sanity, after getting my first DUI at 55, without Sara's guidance, expert advice and super quick responses. Sara Gheesling is the most amazing attorney. Detailed guidance from day one, staring with the first time we spoke, she made me feel at ease, then supported me every step of the way, guiding me on how to be prepared, what to get done before the court date, how to respond to the judge, how to follow-up and the list is never-ending. My questions were endless, but Sara was so patient and helped me calm down and also answered all my questions. I pray to God no one every goes through this ordeal, it is not worth drinking and driving. Sara has extensive expertise, knowledge and knows the court processes inside and out. Also all the court personnel respect her a lot, including the solicitors, judge and even officers at the PPS. Sara, May God Bless you, always, for being such a wonderful person, a life saver and helping everyone who reach out to you, to the best of your ability and taking the worry out of everything. I HIGHLY recommend SARA. THANKS…

Shawn was recommended to me by trustworthy friends and boy am I glad I took them up on the suggestion. Shawn not only has a grasp on every aspect of his legal profession, but was able to explain everything in layman's terms to someone like me, who had never had to deal with anything like this before. He helped negotiate my case and was quick to explain any questions I had. Not to mention, he's a nice, funny guy to boot. Not many people can say that they trust their lawyer, love working with their lawyer, and wouldn't mind having a drink out with the guy. Well, with Shawn, you're in extremely capable and friendly hands. He truly wants the best for his clients. And the best is what you'll get.

My family hired Allison when my autistic teenage son was starting back to public school after being homeschooled for a couple of years. We were traumatized from the rigmarole of IEPs and I decided I wasn’t messing around anymore. We had to re-up with Allison one time, but we didn’t use all of the second installment, even though we had 3-4 lonnnngggg IEP meetings. After all of that, my son has a 1:1 para that is with him all day and he just finished his freshman year with 7 As and 1 B. I never dared to hope that this would be his reality, but it is! He’s so bouyed by this transformation that he’s telling me he wants to tackle reading (his greatest challenge) this summer so that he can take AP classes junior year. I’m so thrilled by the outcomes of hiring Allison- best money I’ve ever spent!!!! Thank you, Allison; you have transformed my son’s future!!!

As a parent with Special Needs children, I wanted to provide them with every opportunity to have a meaningful life. 12 years ago we realized that we needed assistance to ensure the School District was providing them an environment to achieve this and we engaged Allison for assistance.
Allison took a personal approach for each of my sons in representing us and helped develop meaningful and measurable goals specific to their needs - held the School District Accountable.
Over the years I saw that she was respected and her input was welcomed by the School District. Allison was assertive when needed to make sure both of my sons receive the individual IEP and resources that were required for their growth.
I have recommended Allison to many people and will continue to do so.
We will be forever grateful for her professionalism, commitment and positive impact she has had on our entire family.

On a personal level, I really appreciated Allison's straightforward approach, as I knew we would always get the honest and feasible answer from her. On a professional level, we appreciated and admired how Allison had a friendly, collegial approach with the IEP team, yet pushed effectively when needed. I would recommend Allison to any parent looking for effective support during their child's IEP!

I cannot say enough about how pleased I am with Pandora Palmer and her amazing team of professionals! My divorce was a long, drawn out, grueling two year process. When I first met with Pandora, she immediately showed compassion for me and my situation. She and her paralegal, Tiffany, got right on my case, being thorough in researching all aspects of it. Pandora presented me with the facts of what I was facing and gave it to me straight--no sugar coating. She was honest...but with compassion. My case was handled with the utmost importance and professionalism. Phone calls, faxes, and emails were promptly returned. Meetings and correspondence was very detailed. My ex-husband had the worst attitude and behavior throughout the entire process and his attorney/team was less than professional. However, Pandora and Tiffany were firm--countered swiftly, and remained poised and professional at all times. They showed genuine care and concern for me and my minor child, and even showed the same level of care and concern for my oldest child, who is a young adult and was not being represented in the divorce for that reason. My divorce has been final for a few months now. My ex-husband and I had to be back in court just recently to address attorney's fees---Pandora got great results on that too! Should you ever be in need of an awesome attorney, who will fight for you and follow through with great results, I highly recommend Pandora Palmer and her team of professionals as your attorney...you won't regret it!

When I first met Mr. Andrews it was pertaining to a moving violation citation I received. Throughout the consultation he explained what he could do to reduce the citation to a lesser expense. Once I hired him, he gave me very clear instructions on steps I needed to take to show the prosecutor that I took the citation seriously. By completing these actions he would be able to reduce the citation to just having to pay the fine and not getting any points on my license. Even though I took longer than I should have to complete these steps, Mr. Andrews continued the case two different times to allow me extra time to get it done. During this time, I moved to a city 250 miles away. Mr. Andrews worked with the prosecutor to see if anything could be done to help prevent me from having to make the long drive to appear in court. I was very pleased when Mr. Andrews contacted me to inform me that the citation had been reduced to a warning. What really impressed me is that even though he had to do some extra work to continue the case because I couldn't complete everything in the timeframe allowed. He stood by his original quote. He is very thorough, communicates clearly, and does what he says he will. I would recommend Mr. Andrews for any kind of traffic case. He will most definitely get the job done to your advantage.

From the first phone call, Matt was caring, positive and explained every aspect of what our son was going to be involved with in the legal system. It was our first experience and we were out of town for the entire process. Hiring Matt was the best thing we could do to support our son despite the fact we didn’t support his actions. Literally, Matt handled our son’s case as if he was family. The communication we received was constant and thorough. He knew the law in depth but added a special human touch for us. He was successful in getting our son’s charges reduced with a sentence of probation only. We will be forever grateful to Matt.

Mr Wehunt was extremely helpful and very dependable. He truly helped me with my case and I had 2 felonies and really thought I was going spend more time jail and truly thought I would really be always assumed as a terrible criminal and he got me a great plea deal. I got less time with probation and the least amount in fines and so much more. he made me feel comfortable in court when I was nervous and really thought I was going have bad outcome but he worded everything so I was able to understand. all my questions was answered and explained in every way. This is first time I have ever been in serious trouble and even been in court for crime. he kept in contact with me and even after my plea deal he still even contacted me after words to see if I still was okay or had any questions. he truly is a lawyer ur want on ur side.

She was so kind and compassionate with our situation and really went the extra mile to help us. If you have a custody issue Maria is an attorney that will tell you the truth and fight for you. She lets you know you are more than $$$$ she takes it seriously and won’t feed you a line.

One of the best decisions I’ve ever made was hiring Erin for a custody and support claim/counterclaim. I had a very complicated case and Erin and staff genuinely cared and went way above and beyond my expectations for representation. Without Erin I would have been in a huge mess and am extremely thankful to say the least. I’ve used several attorneys in the past and none of them even come close to her knowledge, organization, compassion and value. If you are seeking someone to represent you, Erin and her practice are by far the best attorneys at a tremendous value. I’d give her more stars if I could and am extremely grateful for her taking my case and getting the results. If you need a attorney, Erin is by far the best available and is extremely honest and upfront about everything.

What a Juvenile Law Lawyer Can Do for You
A juvenile law lawyer specializes in legal issues involving minors, including those facing criminal charges, child welfare matters, or status offenses (like truancy or curfew violations). Juvenile law lawyers aim to protect the rights of minors and advocate for rehabilitation rather than punishment in criminal cases. They also help families navigate child custody, abuse, neglect cases, and other legal matters involving children.
If your child is facing criminal charges, or you are involved in a child welfare case, a juvenile law lawyer can help protect your child’s rights and work toward the most favorable outcome.
When Should I Hire a Juvenile Law Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a juvenile law lawyer in the following situations where minors are involved in legal matters:
- Juvenile criminal charges: If your child is accused of a crime, such as theft, assault, or drug offenses, a juvenile lawyer can represent them in juvenile court, advocating for leniency and alternatives to detention.
- Delinquency proceedings: A lawyer can help navigate delinquency charges, defending your child’s rights and seeking rehabilitative outcomes like counseling, probation, or diversion programs instead of incarceration.
- Status offenses: If your child has committed a status offense, such as truancy, running away, or underage drinking, a lawyer can help you resolve these issues in juvenile court, often focusing on rehabilitation rather than punishment.
- School disciplinary issues: If your child is facing school suspensions, expulsions, or other disciplinary actions, a lawyer can help protect their educational rights and challenge any unfair or unlawful school policies.
- Child protective services (CPS) investigations: If your family is being investigated by CPS for alleged abuse, neglect, or dependency, a lawyer can represent you and protect your child’s rights throughout the investigation.
- Custody disputes: A lawyer can help in cases involving child custody or guardianship disputes, ensuring the child’s best interests are prioritized and advocating for the child’s rights.
- Emancipation: If your child seeks legal emancipation from their parents or guardians, a lawyer can assist in navigating the legal process and help the child understand their rights and responsibilities.
Hiring a lawyer early in the legal process ensures that your child’s rights are protected and that the best possible outcomes are pursued.
What Does a Juvenile Law Lawyer Do?
A juvenile law lawyer provides various services to help minors and their families navigate the legal system. Their responsibilities often include:
- Representing minors in court: A lawyer will represent your child in juvenile court, advocating for their rights and seeking rehabilitative outcomes rather than punitive measures.
- Filing motions and legal paperwork: The lawyer handles all necessary legal filings, including petitions, responses, and motions to dismiss charges or suppress evidence.
- Negotiating with prosecutors: In some cases, a lawyer can negotiate plea deals or diversion programs that prevent the child from having a permanent criminal record or serving time in detention.
- Advising on rehabilitation programs: Juvenile law lawyers often focus on alternatives to incarceration, such as counseling, community service, or probation, helping minors avoid long-term legal consequences.
- Handling CPS and child welfare cases: If your family is involved in a CPS investigation or child welfare case, the lawyer can advocate for your child’s safety and well-being, ensuring that their rights are upheld.
- Defending minors against school discipline: A lawyer can help challenge unfair or excessive disciplinary actions taken by schools, ensuring that your child’s educational rights are protected.
- Advising families on legal options: A lawyer will explain the juvenile legal process to families, offering advice on the best legal strategies and what to expect during the case.
How Are Juvenile Law Lawyers Paid?
Juvenile law lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the time involved. Common payment structures include:
- Hourly rate: Many juvenile law lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Flat fee: For simpler cases, such as status offenses or school disciplinary hearings, a lawyer may charge a flat fee that covers all legal services related to the case.
- Retainer: In more complex cases, such as defending against serious criminal charges or handling a long-term CPS investigation, a lawyer may require a retainer, which is an upfront payment billed against as they work on the case.
- Sliding scale or pro bono services: Some juvenile law lawyers offer sliding scale fees based on income or may provide pro bono (free) services for families who cannot afford to pay full legal fees, especially in cases involving child welfare or delinquency.
Discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to understand the total cost and payment options.
How Much Does a Juvenile Law Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a juvenile law lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the time involved. General cost estimates include:
- Juvenile criminal cases: Legal fees for defending a minor in juvenile criminal cases can range from $2,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the severity of the charges and whether the case goes to trial.
- Status offenses: For cases involving minor offenses such as truancy or underage drinking, legal fees typically range from $1,500 to $5,000.
- CPS or child welfare cases: Legal fees for representing families in CPS investigations or child welfare cases can range from $2,000 to $8,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the case.
- School disciplinary hearings: Legal fees for representing students in school-related issues may range from $1,000 to $3,500, depending on the legal work required.
Make sure to get a clear estimate of costs during your initial consultation to ensure you understand the full scope of fees and services.
Top Questions to Ask a Juvenile Law Lawyer
Before hiring a juvenile law lawyer, it’s important to ask key questions to ensure they have the experience and expertise to handle your child’s case effectively. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with juvenile law cases?
Make sure the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, whether it’s juvenile delinquency, child custody, or CPS investigations. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, offers flat fees, or requires a retainer. Ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost. -
What is the likelihood of success in my child’s case?
Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of the case, including potential challenges and likely outcomes. -
How long will the process take?
Juvenile cases can vary in duration, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last and what factors might affect the timeline. -
Will you personally handle my child’s case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing the case and representing your child in court. -
What rights does my child have?
Ask the lawyer to explain your child’s legal rights, including their rights during police questioning, school disciplinary actions, and court proceedings.
How to Check the Credibility of a Juvenile Law Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable juvenile law lawyer, take the following 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 law and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for juvenile law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in juvenile law and have successfully handled cases similar to yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate in juvenile cases.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on juvenile law matters.
- Check for certifications or memberships: Look for memberships in organizations like the National Juvenile Defender Center (NJDC) or certifications in juvenile law, which can indicate a lawyer’s dedication to representing minors.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a juvenile law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Court documents: Bring any legal documents related to your child’s case, such as summons, complaints, or court orders.
- School records: Provide any relevant school records, including disciplinary reports, attendance records, and communications from school officials.
- CPS or investigation reports: If your case involves child welfare, bring any reports or documentation from CPS or other investigating agencies.
- Timeline of events: Prepare a detailed timeline of events related to your child’s legal issue, including interactions with authorities or school officials.
- Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions about the legal process, your child’s rights, and potential outcomes for the case.
Being well-prepared will help the lawyer assess your child’s situation more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice tailored to your needs.
