The best lawyer in the good state of Georgia

Mr Nash is a superb lawyer and a true southern gentleman. Over the last decade he has handled a few legal matters for me and always delivered 100% on what he said he could do for me. You can not go wrong with hiring Mr Nash. He gets the job done and pushes for results. When i have mentioned his name... to other lawyers they always have the highest respect for him. Some of my legal predicaments were rather serious and as far as I am concerned he turned water into wine and mountains into mole hills!!!! All my charges were reduced or expunged. With respect to a negative review I read here.... Mr Nash has decades of experience and personal connections - he doesn't need to personally appear to get results. Yes, it is true that his services are not cheap but when It comes To electronics, vacations, automobiles, AND LAWYERS..... You get what you pay for.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
