Lynn is a Godsend!

I can't say enough good things about Lynn. She was absolutely amazing! Lynn is very thorough, knowledgeable and compassionate. She has all of the qualities you would want and need when going through a time such as this. I was kept in the loop every step of the way and she brought resolution to my cas...e as seamlessly as possible. Her fees are fair and in my opinion, she was conservative in her billing (you don't find that a lot...if at all). With that said, if you're looking for an all-around excellent divorce attorney, look no further. THANK YOU Lynn!!

Lynn was AMAZING!

Mrs. Lynn Sturges did an AMAZING JOB as my attorney. I had originally went with another attorney but decided to go with Ms. Lynn when I felt like the other lawyer wasn’t communicating with me about the case. Ms. Lynn took over my case without hesitation and it was the best decision I could have made.... She helped through every aspect with any questions I had and I would definitely recommend and go with her again. Thank you for all your help and being such an amazing attorney!

Great attorney!

After many attempts of filing for divorce with several law firms over the past few years, Lynn Sturges was a pleasure to work with. She listened and understood what my intentions were from the beginning and worked with me to make my divorce an amicable one. She and her legal assistant took the time t...o thoroughly answer all my questions and give me detailed advice as to what was in my best interest. She is very passionate about her job and works for you to make sure there are no details left to question. She was personable, knowledgeable, and professional at all times. I highly recommend Lynn and her law firm for your family law needs.

DO NOT USE THIS ATTORNEY

I hired Lynn to represent me in a contempt and alimony modification case, she failed me miserably, after allowing my case to drag on for almost 14 months. The initial consultation with her gave me hope that my interests would be protected. Instead, after failing to negotiate any settlement with opp...osing counsel, she put me in front of a new Judge she knew nothing about..... there was no alimony modification granted, although I provided hundreds of pages of E Mails, tax returns, paystubs, monthly bill statements showing increases in my bill payments, job termination, and my filed bankruptcy information showing significant changes in my income, down 34% from when the divorce was finalized, to when I filed for modification. She was not proactive in getting this case resolved, she seldom iniated contact that did not originate from me. She was NEVER proactive in negotiating any type of mutually agreeable outcome with the attorney for my ex wife, and she was totally steamrolled in court by the two attorneys that represented my ex wife in a Gwinnett court. The only settlement that was ever presented to opposing counsel was one that I wrote up and gave to Lynn to present. Not only did 100% of my modification request be denied, I was also ordered to pay $5,000 of my wife's legal expense. There are hundreds of Family Law attorneys in the metro Atlanta area, DO NOT GET ASSOCIATED WITH LYNN STURGES if you want positive results. She was Unresponsive, unaggressive, unassertive, and uninvolved.

Awesome Attorney!

Lynn was very professional and made the divorce process easy. She was very knowledgeable about the child support law here in GA and helped me make critical decisions regarding this matter. She kept me informed from start to finish.
