Divorce and separation lawyer | Nov 02

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"I endorse this lawyer. Melanie came to us with a passion for family law. Knowing the challenging emotional nature of this field, this is a rarity. We knew that Melanie was smart, but that is not what separates her from the rest of the lawyers. What separates her is her resolve. She is willing to persevere through adversity to accomplish what she wants. When the State Bar mistakenly told her she did not pass the bar in 2015, she could have given up. She did not, and neither did we. We had seen her work product and care for our clients. We knew in our gut that there had to have been a mistake. She shook off what she thought was a failure to take the bar again. Thankfully, the State Bar of Georgia has now admitted that they made a mistake with her exam and that she did, in fact, pass the Bar the first time, as we all suspected. Now, she takes that same resolve to the representation of her clients. She is there for them to help them through a difficult time in their life."
