also known as Ed Hecht, Divorce and Child Custody Attorney
Thank you for visiting my Avvo profile.
I am an attorney as well as a divorced father of two young children and I specialize in all aspects of family law including divorce, child custody, child support, modifications of custody and support, paternity, legitimation, temporary protective orders, contempt of court orders, parental rights, adoption, and more.
My unique background as a single father gives me a great understanding of my clients and the challenges they face. I know what they are going through and how they feel because I've been through it, as well, and I inherently understand the necessity of being a caring, expert advocate for others going through this painful process.
I will help you get through whatever family law situation you are facing, and I'm here to protect your and your children's rights as well as help you deal with the emotional aspects of it all. I understand it firsthand, having dealt with it in my own life.
Compassionate North Atlanta Divorce Attorney
I founded Hecht Family Law to be able to help clients who are going through some of life’s toughest times, bringing to my position as an Atlanta divorce attorney an understanding of what it’s like to be in their shoes because I've also been through a divorce with children, pay child support, and have dealt with alimony and child custody issues in my own life. I'm admitted to practice in all Georgia courts (including the Georgia Appeals Court and the Georgia Supreme Court). As a loving, devoted father to two young children (a boy and a girl), I understand the sensitivities involved in helping people who need to be able to co-parent in the raising of their children for years after their marriage ends.
I make a point of being available to my clients when they need me most, even outside normal business hours, because I understand that in family law, divorce, child custody and child support matters, your needs don’t always fit within the confines of the working day. My clients receive my personal cell phone number so they may call or text me whenever I am needed-including nights and weekends! I'm passionate in my commitment to my clients, patient in helping them understand the big picture as well as the intricacies, and am an enthusiastic advocate for all who have my representation.
If you are facing a legal issue regarding divorce, child custody, child support, modification of custody, modification of child support, contempt of a court order, adoption, alimony, or any of the numerous other family law practice areas that Hecht Family Law services, please call me at or email me at. I am happy to speak with you by phone or schedule a consultation with you in my office so that I can help you undertand and deal with whatever family law issue you’re facing in a way that provides the optimal result for you.

ACCESSIBLE AND DEVOTED
I hired Bryson Hash and Ed Hecht in the middle of a VERY involved custody case. Bryson, Ed and the paralegal, Sharon understood and related to my domestic situation. I truly felt like Bryson was litigating and negotiating for what was right for me and my children. When I hired Bryson and Ed I gave ...

All Sell, No Deliver
Ed talks a good game when you first show up. He sells his talents and abilities far better than he delivers. I cannot recommend this attorney for anything important, like the custody of your children. After the retainer check has cleared, he stops communicating, except to ask for more money. If y...

Be Prepared
On 2/28/18 I consulted and hired Ed whom at that time introduced me to his partner Bryson Hash. Initially, Ed stated he would represent my case, but then passed it onto Bryson because, Ed felt he would be a better suited for my case. I truly did want Ed on my case, because he was aggressive and direc...

Kimberly
My name is Kimberly and in 2016, I made the decision to divorce my husband, with this already being a horrible time in my life, I must say that God led me to Mr Hecht. This man was not only compassionate and empathetic, he also operated in truth and integrity. He stated his fees in our first meeting ...

Great choice
Ed Hecht took time out of a Sunday afternoon to meet with me about a urgent matter to get my divorce handled. He was very responsive to calls and texts, and handled ALL matters within days. He stayed on task and continued to keep me in the loop of everything going on. He was very informative so I was...
"Ed has been a friend of mine for a number of years. I have always been impressed with his courtroom litigation style (he has that innate sense of when to be aggressive and when not to be - a very special and essential quality for the trial attorney). He is also very meticulous to detail and takes his clients issues to heart. I endorse this attorney and am confident each of his clients will be very well represented."
"Ed is a valued member of the family law community with a good reputation who has the courage to fight for his clients."
"Attorney Hecht and I shared classes in law school. During this time I observed his hard-working character and kindness. He is a gifted artist and contributed art work to auctions to raise money for public interest law. I have no doubt that this same good spirit and dedication has continued in his law practice. You will surely encounter a caring attorney, who carefully considers your needs in Attorney Hecht. I endorse him without reservation."
"Ed is a very capable lawyer who has the experience and knowledge to provide the very best representation for his clients. I am happy to endorse him."
"Ed is a passionate attorney who cares greatly for his clients. He also has an entrepreneurial spirit, and his client-focused business practices are a refreshing change to traditional law firm models. I have known Ed since we were classmates in the Georgia State program, both of us coming from previous careers as entrepreneurs. He has been a great source of advice on family law and a model for how to practice law in the 21st century."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Hecht's time and effort spent responding to questions posted on this site show his dedication to the practice and the thoughtfulness and accuracy of his responses show he is well qualified."
"I see Ed's answers here on AVVO and they display both good legal knowledge and good common sense, traits you want to see when you hire a lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Hecht provides his time and knowledge in an effort to help others resolve their legal issues. He is very knowledgeable and ready to help clients in any way he can."
