Some Things to Consider
New Client Information
 
To assist you in your decision, we provide the following costs for our services:  
 

Here are our standard, fixed rates for uncontested divorce in Georgia.  Our rates are competitive (or even below average), providing you with first-rate assistance at a low cost.  We do NOT charge extra for postage, copies, filing fees, paralegal fees, etc. for your uncontested case. The rates below do not include the filing fee

Please be sure that you understand the differences between a contested and an uncontested divorce.  If your divorce is contested, we may still be able to represent you, but the fees given on this website do NOT apply to contested cases. 

We offer preparation of ALL necessary documents for an uncontested divorce, filing your case and processing it through through the Court from beginning to end as necessary for the following flat rate (currently available in Cherokee, Cobb, Douglas, Forsyth, Fulton, Gwinnett, and Paulding County).  Please inquire for other counties in North Georgia and Middle Georgia:

Uncontested Divorce with minor children - Any Other PLEASE CALL FOR QUOTE

To begin your case, just submit your new client information form on line or give us a call at (770) 794-3220.

We provide an initial telephone consultation with a qualified divorce attorney (10 - 15 minutes) at no charge.  For an in-depth telephone or in-person consultation, we charge $195 (flat fee) for the consultation only.  However, if you receive an initial consultation and then decide to hire us to represent you, we will apply the $195 consultation fee to the cost of your case if you employ us for your divorce within thirty days of the consultation so that there is no extra cost to you for the consultation. The first step to begin your case is to give us a call to schedule your initial conference (most of the time if no minor children are involved, this is only a telephone conference). If you are sure that you are ready to proceed with an uncontested divorce when you come in for your consultation, you simply pay our low flat rates indicated above in full and there is no consultation fee.

Consult and Advise (Coaching) - This service is primarily for clients who need help in understanding and reviewing a settlement agreement that their spouse or spouse's attorney has prepared.  Additionally, this may be appropriate for clients who are just beginning to explore the possibility of a divorce -- either uncontested or contested. We charge $195.00 at a flat rate for a consultation and then $250.00 per hour for each additional hour after the initial consultation. This service may be helpful if you do not know whether you should contest some portion of your divorce or if you just need advice as to whether you should accept an offer to settle that your spouse has suggested. 

All major credit cards accepted. Payment of the above fees and costs must be made in full before we begin preparation of any documents for your case. 
 

We offer a 10% discount off of our fee to all clients who are full time law enforcement officers or firefighters.

 
*NOTES:
  • These fees and costs do not include the filing fee for your case or the cost of the parenting seminar (only required if you have minor children). The parenting seminar costs $30 for each person in most counties and both parents MUST attend.  Because of the variation in local rules and procedures, our fees vary from county-to-county if minor children are involved.
  • The fees quoted do not include preparation of qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDROs) or any deeds and may not include division of a business.  If your case involves division of a business, please call for a quote. 
  • Your spouse will not be served by the Sheriff in your uncontested case. The law provides that your spouse may be notified of the divorce by publication if  you can no longer contact him/her. Our fees do not include the cost of the publication of the divorce notice.  The publication fee is usually approximately $80.
  • Upon request, a name change for our client (or spouse) to restore a maiden/pre-marital name will be included in any uncontested divorce at no additional charge.
  • Our services are not available for cases in DeKalb County or Rockdale County.
All fees are subject to change from time to time.  Last updated - Tuesday, September 23, 2008
