As a father, I had an uphill battle getting my kids out of a toxic environment where my ex-wife was actively alienating my children to the point where I was losing communication with them. Brandy was appointed to be the Guardian ad Litem to investigate my case. When I was searching for the right legal representation, every attorney knew Brandy and had high praise for her. One lawyer told me that if Brandy is involved, you better be in the right. She comes to trial prepared, documented, and fully investigated. I found this to be true. Throughout the two year investigation, it was clear that she was focused on the best interest of the children. I don’t know if anyone else could have sorted through the complexity of my case. Brandy thoroughly investigated the evidence to separate information from misinformation. She interviewed school teachers, family, friends, doctors, and my children. My case was very complicated. Even though the alienated children signed affidavits to live with their mom, the courts recommended a change of custody. Brandy handed down a very comprehensive and detailed report to the court. Even though the evidence spoke for itself in the end, I wasn’t sure where Brandy would stand in her recommendation until she was called to testify in the temporary emergency custody hearing. She doesn’t show her cards and did not take sides until she finished her investigation. My children were found to be in a mental health crisis, and as an alienated father, I felt hopeless to save my kids or our relationship. Because of the care and hard work of Ms. Daswani, I was able to see an amazing turn around that I didn’t think was possible. I will always be grateful for the dedication she showed to my children.

Brandy Daswani was the most professional, thorough, responsive, involved advocate for my case that I could possibly ask for. Her expertise and compassion made all the difference for my case and my family. I would hire here again and recommend her to anyone who needs a family practice attorney or Guardian Ad Litem. No one better.

Some years ago, my wife and I made the difficult and painful decision to end our marriage after 15 years with two minor children. Although we were unable to maintain the marriage, we were in complete agreement about continuing to raise our children with joint custody for the both of us in separate households. We initially tried some self-help software to draft a settlement agreement (A good basis to begin the discussion but not really sufficient without being reviewed by an attorney when there are children involved.). We then initially hired Brandy to review and revise the settlement agreement so it would pass legal muster in Georgia courts. To our mutual shock, The judge in our case did not want us to have a joint custody (What?!) because in the judge's opinion that never works out really that people will cooperate through the remainder of the child rearing years. We both protested and insisted that both of us were in agreement and we both want to joint custody for the children and that's also with the children desired. The judge informed us that it was "not our decision" and proceeded to conduct a hearing to decide which of us was going to get full custody against both of our wishes. During a recess, I made an emergency phone call to Brandy and informed her of the situation. She suggested that we immediately dismiss the case and come to her office to consult how to achieve what we were both trying to accomplish. We did so and she suggested that we both waive venue and re-file in another jurisdiction where the judges reward cooperation and respect joint custody when it is in the best interest of the children and both parents and with full cooperation. We did so and after languishing for eight months in the original court without satisfactory resolution for anyone, we sailed through a friendlier jurisdiction of her suggestion in less than two months and got some closure on the legal issues. That has been nearly 10 years at this point and I am glad to report that not only are both of our children healthy and successful college students, but my ex-wife and I have remained friends to this day. This is largely attributable to Brandy's innovative and quick thinking solution to avoid an irreparable situation that would have doubtless tarnished the relationship with my ex-wife and I, and between each of us and our children. If there is anyway you can salvage your marriage especially with children, I counsel everyone I know to try that first. If you cannot come to mutual resolution I definitely recommend using an attorney for divorces with children in Georgia. If you find yourself in this unfortunate situation, there is no attorney I can personally recommend more highly than Brandy Daswani.

I was desperately seeking an attorney once I was served with divorce papers. After consulting with many attorneys I met with Mrs. Daswani. She was recommended to me by several legal professionals. She is held in high regard by her colleagues. My initial consultation lasted three hours. It was clear that she was taking my case seriously and had my best interest in mind. She took the time to address any concerns I had. Over the course of my case (which was complex to say the least), Mrs. Daswani stayed on top of every single issue. She was quick to respond anytime I had a question. This was very comforting as I had never needed representation and didn't know what to expect. She is tenacious, and thorough. I have referred other to Mrs. Daswani and they have been pleased with her as well.

Brandy was an amazing advocate, while also being compassionate and patient. From the beginning to the process to delivering the final order, Brandy and her staff made the process smooth and as painless as humanely possible! As a fellow attorney, I appreciated her professionalism more than words can say.
