I am grateful

I got injured a year ago and it was a sudden accident. I slipped and fell and fractured my hip femur bones. That was a hard time for me, and I wasn't interested in dealing with any attorney at all. I was in town celebrating my sisters 50th birthday and had to have surgery that weekend. I have a frien...d who lived in Atlanta, and she sent me list of attorneys who were considered the best. She sent me the contact information for Attorney Lamar and boy did she set me up for success. Her and her staff was a home away from home and was very easy to talk to, not like other attorneys who attempt to speak over your head. They always made themselves available and emails and calls were always returned within 24 hours, during the entire process. They remained professional, kept me informed and walked hand and hands with me until the case was settled. It was nice to have a firm support me during my most traumatic time. If you need more than just an average attorney, Lamar Law office is the place to go!!!!!

Posted by Troy | September 02, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Total Failure

While assigned to my divorce case, she was more reactive than proactive. Attorney Lamar would contact me when the opposing counsel requested anything. When I had a request, it was a waiting game. I would receive information for someone else's case. When my child wanted to live with me, I went with so...meone who was familiar with my case. She (Lamar) displayed the same approach as with my divorce case. I received notifications on mycase directed to me, but found to be for another client. The final straw was, I wasn't receiving any updates on my mycase account for my parenting plan modification. Found out she was no longer working at the law firm. As for my parenting plan modification, gone, along with attorney Lamar. Called her new firm to inquire, still waiting. This was an experience that was a total failure, but an experience that opened my eyes about the professional ability or lack thereof for this attorney.

I am so sorry that you had a negative experience. We value every client's opinion and take them as an opportunity grow. If there is anything I can do for you in the future I hope you will not hesitate to notify me.

Professional expertise, personal service

I was in need of an attorney who could help me with the legal side effects of a domestic violence case my girlfriend was indirectly involved in. My problem was I wasn't even sure what kind of legal help we needed. Ms. Lamar was fantastic - based on our incomplete knowledge, she was able to quickly de...cipher the best path for us, and help us protect ourselves legally. She provided excellent legal advice and did so while always explaining to us what our options were. Rather than take advantage of clients who weren't sure what to do, she saved us money, time, and big legal headaches.

Excellent Attorney!

Attorney Anita Lamar worked hard on my case and really explained to me all the best options for me and my family. Thanks so much. It was a GREAT OUTCOME!

Posted by Terrence | March 05, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Personal Injury

Thanks Anita

Anita Lamar fought for my settlement against all odds. I was in a horrific car accident last year, and it has been difficult to adjust. Anita never stopped fighting for me. I recommend Anita Lamar for your personal injury case.
