Great people, super knowledgeable and helpful

They fought for us and won! Gave us back our family. Can’t thank them enough

John and his team, were a pleasure to work with and made me feel comfortable, from the moment we spoke on the phone. They took time to listen, to our concerns, and came up with a sound plan, to deal with our personal situation. John, Konrad, Lynley and Maggie, all worked together, and the team was a pleasure to deal with. They each had a specialty and their own unique style, that worked well together. I found the key to this case was patience, because time is on your side. Seems the wheels of Justice turn slow, but very fair. I would highly recommend this law firm, and if I ever need anything they specialize in, I will call them immediately. A Big Thanks to this firm, and your hard work, was much appreciated!

John and his team have helped me with a case regarding my first husband. We started off rocky but part of that was my issue in going the "easier" route. They've been prompt in their replies and progress. Thanks for the help. My review before was unfavorable and the Law Group's reply that they weren't representing me is false. I find that unfortunate which is why it's 4 instead of 5 stars

Do not recommend.

Very disrespectful , hanging up on me multiple times. When I try to call back and say hello they hang up on me. I was just saying my side of story and the lady said I was trying to speak over her .and really I wear a hearing aid and I didn't hear her talking when I was . Just dissapointed...

I edited this 8 months after they claim they didn't represent me. They are correct, they took my money and did nothing, no representation....good call guys! An absolute joke......truly. I'm happy for the people that had a good experience with these guys, but they were unbelievably incompetent in handling my case. Read the letter I recently wrote them.....when one has to write the judge for leniency concerning the failure of their legal representation it's a sad day. If you need an estate settled, avoid these guys like the plague. The only case I can see for hiring them is if one likes being ignored and horrible outcomes. I really hope they respond to this claiming they did their due diligence. I've done more work in a hammock after drinking a case of beer than these guys did for me. That's a fact! I am writing concerning the estate you handled for me up until November of 2017. The case was the estate of my mother Carolyn Keefe. I was left with no choice other than dropping your Law firm after dealing with Richard Pettys for 9 months. In that time period the only thing your firm accomplished was filing paperwork late and an initial consult. After working with another legal team since last November, I am finally in the final process of being named executor by the Cherokee probate court. Besides many additional legal fees over the last eight months, I also barely saved my mother’s condo from the jaws of potentially illegal foreclosure. Appointed County Administrator William E. Whitaker thankfully helped me dodge that bullet. Because Mr. Pettys failed to file paperwork on time, I also almost lost the condo to a family member not named in the will. Thankfully she had no funds to front the required bond. I have incurred total costs over $15,000 to keep my botched case alive. Mr. Pettys had led me to believe for months that my case was in good hands when it was not. Included is a photo of an email Mr. Pettys sent me right before I dropped your firm. In his email Mr. Pettys told me plainly that a photocopy of the original will I had could not be accepted in probate. Along with many other missteps, this was incorrect. I have also included the letter I wrote to Judge Wood explaining why I missed a deadline and had lost faith in my legal representation. There is also a copy of my letter asking for release from your firm and particularly Glen Johnson as my attorney. Lastly is a copy of my initial receipt of payment to your firm for $1,970. After consulting with a local malpractice attorney in your area at the behest of other counsel, I have been informed that although I have a good case, the monetary value of any possible settlement would be nullified by their fees. This isn’t to say I’m not considering it. It has also been brought to my attention that a grievance with the Georgia State Bar could be a possible last ditch maneuver. I am again asking for a partial or total refund of my initial fees. There was no service of value rendered and just as at any decent University, late work doesn’t count in a court of law. Thank you for your consideration and I hope this will be solved civilly.

2017 - Mr. Glen Johnson took a year to file my upward modification for a child with special needs. Then, after the judge order us to attend mediation, Mr. Johnson didn't show up . . . but he sent his clerk, Richard, to fill in. Richard conducted hours of litigation on my behalf. Additionally, the mediator, Linda Gettle, was fully aware that Richard was not an attorney. In the end, our mediation agreement sat on Mr. Johnson desk for months. Eventually, I fired him. He has caused such emotional and financial distress for our family. And, Linda Gettle was extremely unprofessional, unethical, deceitful and down right raunchy during our mediation. Her approach to mediation is borderline harassment. It's unbelievable to think that she actually gets paid to bully people! So, stay clear of these folks!

I think that people should understand the class of person that they hire as an attorney... Any person willing to earn at the expense of horses, under the guise of providing Justice, should have to live with that decision... This is not a review of legal service it is a review of your soul and there will come a day where you have to stand in front of God.
