An In-Depth Background in Georgia Family Law
Our attorneys practice family law in eight Georgia counties (Gwinnett, Cobb, Fulton, Forsyth, Clayton, Rockdale, and DeKalb) and, over the years, we have represented clients in 27 different counties.
The scope of our experience has provided us with the opportunity to work with judges and judicial officers throughout the state. We have gained a solid understanding of how the law is interpreted in a wide variety of situations.
In visitation disputes, we know how to prepare cases that effectively address the factors judges use when determining visitation and child custody arrangements and resolving disputes, such as:
- How involved has the parent been in the child's life?
- How will the proposed visitation arrangement impact the child's school?
- How will the proposed visitation arrangements impact the child's life in other ways, good or bad?
- What is the mental state of both parents?
- Will the proposed visitation arrangement be unduly burdensome to the other parent?
In Georgia, most fathers and mothers are granted generous visitation unless they are shown to pose a specific danger to the children's welfare.
Seeking Modification of Divorce Agreements, Decrees and Orders
Initial visitation arrangements are not set in stone. Situations change, and family law orders can be modified to reflect families' current situations. We represent clients seeking to modify divorce decrees and other visitation orders in order to gain more visitation or to make other changes, such as when one parent needs to move away.
For example, we have worked with parents who successfully completed drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs, advocating to increase their visitation as a result. We also have a strong record of protecting children from unfit parents.
