Divorce

Mr. Wyatt and his staff quickly and kindly helped move my divorce proceedings to a neat and speedy conclusion. They kept me informed and were available to me anytime I had questions or needed assistance.

Custody Battle

I hired Justin for my wife over a custody battle with her ex husband. My wife had a horrible attorney resulting in the transfer of custody to her ex husband. The attorney was the worst and didn’t fight for her in court. So her ex husband who cared less about seeing his kids or paid child support got ...full custody. We were shocked. My wife was devastated. Not only missing her kids but paying child support for them. We then hired Justin. And wow what a difference an attorney can make. This man fought hard and not only does my wife have her kids back but her Ex is now paying child support as he should. This man is a damn good attorney. Even got applauded and the officers in the court room were shaking his hand when court was over. He will fight for you and knows the law very well. I have since then have had my own encounters and have obtained Justin’s service. I already know the results bc I have seen this man in action. He will not back down and will fight for what is right. He may seem a little arrogant at times but I’m sure that’s because I thought I knew best when I should have been listening to him. He doesn’t always answer all my questions or gets back to me right away but he knows the law and what’s best. Trust in him and he will help you. He is one of the best and I thank him for all that he has done for me and my family. Praying for the outcome we are looking for in mediation. I know things are going to go well because Justin has my back!

Cobb County Child Custody

Justin Wyatt is an excellent attorney. He knows the law and is a beast in the courtroom. My case was going on for more than two years with 2 different attorneys who was unsuccessful at getting this resolved. My case was appointed to guardian ad litem Francis Marian Weeks who was extremely bias from t...he start. She recommended that my 7 year old daughter whom I've raised her entire life be awarded to her father and for me to pay CS. Justin Wyatt and his assistant Mike were great as far as communicating and presenting the facts in court. He fought tooth and nail with Mrs. Weeks and the opposing attorney. I am very satisfied with the outcome. Thank you so much for the compassion and hard work.

Best Attorney!!

I highly recommend Justin Wyatt! I spoke with several lawyers, but after meeting Justin, I knew instantly he was the right attorney for me. Justin represented me in my divorce case. My ex-husband refused to pay alimony for a 17-year marriage, and he hired three different attorneys and represented ...himself during the process. What I thought was going to be a simple divorce turned into a highly-contested one by my ex. Justin stuck by me the whole time, and I ended up getting alimony, which even my ex-'s girlfriend stated that I should get. Justin always has a way of making you feel better when you are going through the worst time of your life. Justin will tell it like it is, and he will be straight and honest with you. He will also try to keep the cost down for you, and doesn't like to waste time or money. He is very well-respected in the courthouse, and he will fight for everything you need!! Justin is honest, trustworthy, smart, and I can't recommend him enough!!

BEST LAWYER EVER!!

Justin Wyatt handled my insanely stressed divorce case and did an amazing job! My ex husband was Very deceptive but of course justin saw the truth and brought it all out at the final hearing. He exceeded far beyond my expectations and continues to win my case every time my ex husband takes me back to... court! Everyone in the Cobb county court system knows and respects Justin Wyatt! He is an absolute bulldog! So intelligent!! He tells you how it is and doesn't ever try to sugar coat anything. Made this very stressful time in my life as easy as possible. Thank you Justin Wyatt! Couldn't have done it without you!!
