Free Consultation
I am an experienced attorney and litigator who has successfully helped many individuals over the last twenty-five years to strategically resolve their legal matters. My professional experience includes working as a Federal litigator; a State Court Judge's Staff Attorney; an associate attorney at both a large Atlanta insurance defense firm; and, a civil litigator for a large, Marietta-based law firm.
In 2011, I decided to work for myself and formed the Domestic and Civil litigation branch of a small firm. In 2018, I transitioned from a firm partner to the owner of my own law firm, Henrickson Law Group, LLC. Henrickson Law Group, LLC was formed to focus on family law clients with their divorce, custody, adoption, legitimation, name change, and estate planning needs. We are here to serve our clients in transition or planning for life change. We care about what we do.

Child custody battle
I've spent the past year working with Suzanne to resolve my child custody legal issue. She is thorough and an excellent communicator.
