Speak Softly and Carry a Big Stick!

There are exactly two attorneys in the world that I trust and Damon Bivek is one of them. He is a gracious and caring gentleman who went above and beyond to keep things moving along smoothly. He has an insight to human nature that combined with his legal expertise made what could have been a misera...ble year much more comfortable. When it was all over, I felt I got everything we wanted without resorting to any regrettable behavior. And he effectively coached me through moments when I just wanted to give up. Nice! I will continue to work with Damon and would be happy to speak with anyone considering hiring him.

100% recommended!

Wonderful lawyer and person! He has helped me overcome my fears of fighting for custody for my little one. No more worries now since I had him on my side! I would definitely recommend him for a lawyer! He's great!

Honest and upfront from the beginning...

I can say from my past experiences working other Family Law Attorney's... Mr. Bivek is the most honest and upfront attorney in the Metro Atlanta area. He is extremely knowledged and works hard to fight for the rights of both parties but most importantly, he does what is fair for the children. I was f...ighting a divorce for four years and changed attorney's twice before. Once I found Mr. Bivek's Law Firm, he had my case wrapped up within two months. His Law Firm isn't the type of Law Firm that will nickel and dime you because you call to see how the case is coming along. He is very respectful and listens to what is going on with your situation before he makes his move on your behalf. He really does his homework beforehand. You cannot go wrong by having Mr. Bivek represent you in your case. I will be using him again in the near future. Thanks again, Mr. Bivek. - JCD

Damon was Wonderful!

Damon helped me tremendously through my divorce. Not only was he there to provide legal advice, but also helped me maintain my sanity through this experience. He was extremely helpful in explaining the procedures and possible outcomes of the situation. I felt very comfortable having Damon at my side ...to advise me through this ordeal. I would highly recommend Damon as an attorney.

A Lawyer that does things RIGHT

Damon has the ability to see the real picture for his clients. He is not afraid to tackle the tough issues, but also focuses on what is right. In our case, the issue was joint custody and he did not back down. He fought for all the things that would allow the father equal time with his children, and ...focused on "the children" not on the parents. He showed genuine care for the children, moreso than the mother's attorney, and suggested counseling for all parties. He was empathetic, but firm with the steps that needed to take place. He was about doing the right thing, but more importantly about doing things right so that the case was solid, and that there were no surprises. He handled the divorce and custody as separate issues, but also realized that they were interdependent and used this to the advantage of his client. Damon genuinely cares about his clients, and what I witnessed was his willingness to say when the client is wrong. That takes a lot of integrity in the lawyer and I have a great deal of respect for him in doing so. He is definitely a lawyer I would want on my side, not against me in a tough battle.
