What the scorecard measures

Every number on the scorecard is drawn from public Google data on the date shown. Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many people have rated the firm, compared with the other family and divorce lawyers in the pool. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.8 from hundreds of clients counts for more than a 5.0 from a few dozen. Recency shows how recently reviews are still arriving. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How family law fees tend to work in Atlanta

Family law fees depend mostly on whether the case is contested. An uncontested divorce where both sides agree is a smaller job than a custody fight with hearings. Firms variously charge a flat fee, an hourly rate against a retainer, or an initial consultation fee. We have no verified fee figures beyond what each firm publishes, so get a written fee agreement and ask what happens if the case runs long.

Courts and areas covered

The firms above have Atlanta addresses on Peachtree Rd NE, Piedmont Rd NE, Hurt Plaza SE and Henderson Mill Rd, and several describe work in the Fulton, DeKalb, Cobb and Gwinnett courts. The Porter Law Firm describes handling cases online, which can matter if you cannot get to an office. Looking for a divorce lawyer near me? Each listing shows a phone number and directions.

Questions worth asking at the first meeting

  • Is this a flat fee or an hourly retainer, and what happens if the case becomes contested?
  • Who will be my main contact, and how quickly do you reply?
  • Which county court will hear my case, and how often do you appear there?
  • How do you handle custody and parenting-time disputes?
  • Is mediation an option before we go to a hearing?

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a different lawyer for an uncontested divorce?
