Exceptional Lawyer

We hired Bonnie to review our original will and helped us make the necessary changes now that our children are older. She was very knowledgeable of the ins and outs of the probate law. She listened to us and offered different options to suit our needs.

Bonnie Rich handled a Tax court case for one of my clients,that i lost in appeals and did not think we could win. She immediately took charge,made very astute arguments supporting my clients case and won the case. Honestly I did not think we had a chance since the US Attorney made some compelling cha...llenges. On this tax matter Bonnie knew how to overcome the IRS position and the result was a victory for my client. I have since recommended other clients for to her.

Opinion

Ms Rich was very attentive to the wishes and objectives that my wife and I had for a new will, and she very ably and professionally prepared new documents in accordance with Georgia law. A very gratifying experience.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
