She knows what she is doing
we recently had Andrea represent my fiancé in his divorce and child custody case. We did our research online for lawyers and found that so many were just too expensive and seemed money hungry when we called. We live in Barrow county, the divorce caser was in Banks county and she is in Gwinnett County...
