Elena Patrice Sanchez-Curtis

How I wish I could go back in time and hire Elena to handle my divorce and custody modification from the get-go. I would’ve saved myself (and my wallet) from a world of hurt. About two years after my divorce, I decided to file for a child support and custody modification. I was ill-equipped for the battle that came after, and in a moment of desperation hired the first attorney that I met with. What a mistake that was. After ten long months of no action from him that left me vulnerable and defensive in my own case, I parted ways with him in search of someone aggressive who could get it done for my family. I consulted with several attorneys all over Atlanta, and left many of those consultations in tears after being told over and over that nothing could be done at that point. Basically the damage was done. But I was not about to work with someone again who wasn’t on my side. I received a call back from Elena’s office the same day I contacted them, and went for a consultation that afternoon. We had her on retainer before I left the office. Elena was straightforward with me, admitting that my case would be challenging, but she also suggested strategies that no one else had. First off by getting a guardian ad litem involved. As intimidating as that was, it was the best and only way to move forward, and I was shocked that no other attorney had so much as mentioned the idea. She took on my case knowing that she had a large and sloppy mess to clean up, but got to work immediately. Elena has a way of making you feel confident in the direction you’re taking without “sugar coating” anything or giving unrealistic expectations of how things could turn out. She and her team have worked hard to reverse the damage. They always kept me on track during discovery, and even broke a timeline down for me to follow so the time-sensitive task wasn’t overwhelming. She is incredibly responsive, and continues to answer the barrage of questions I throw her way. She offers priceless guidance every step of the way, and always helps me navigate any issue that arises. Something as simple as helping me decide how to respond to an email or text (of which there are many), is just one of the reasons I continue to be impressed by her service. Through failed mediation (not on our part) to my upcoming trial, Elena has shown me not only how to be a better co-parent, but also how to move on with my life in spite of this year-and-a-half long battle. While we aren’t done just yet, as my trial is coming up, the end is FINALLY within reach. All thanks to Elena. We’ve already decided to keep her on retainer after trial as we expect more (albeit less challenging) road bumps in the future. For the first time since my divorce, I feel positive about the future for my family. Elena and her team are simply the best. I will be forever grateful for her compassion, kindness, knowledge, and go-getter attitude. Look no further. Do yourself a favor and choose Elena. You will not be disappointed.

I hired Elena Sanchez-Curtis for my custody case and before I even work with her, I heard from a friend how she fights for her clients at court and stands up for them. She has been the same handling my case, she made things less stressful and worked late with me to get my case ready. She is always been there to answer my questions and step up for me when I needed her to interfere during the case to handle certain interactions with ex. She is a pleasure to work with.

Thank you Elena for your help, determination, courage, skills and hard work. I appreciate that you did not give up on me neither the children. Thank you for arranging mediation to resolve the matter quickly out of court despite the hardships that were thrown your way, I saw a lawyer who supported, understood and who fought with grace and total professionalism. Your efforts have made a long lasting impact and turned a nightmare into a fabulous dream. You have fought and reclaimed a piece of justice that we needed and made right some of the wrongs. You cared , well prepared and well argued. Thank you for displaying experience and skill to get the best possible results for me. Some people go the extra mile, thank you for being one of them. I will not hesitate to recommend you to my entire family/friends. If you want a lawyer that wont flinch no matter the nature of your case in front of her Elena is your lawyer, thank you again for defending me in every instance you made me get what i needed.

Elena has been amazing! She listened to my past history with my case and wanted to take the case head on. I feel like she is here for you and gives you the best advice for your case.

As a person who's never had to deal with court, I was lucky to get to work with MS.Sanchez-Curtis. She walked me through every step of what to expect for my custody battle and is still a great help. Very professional & reliable!

Elena has been a wonderful contact and help in my personal and business ventures over the past year. From family matters to ensuring my new farm and myself are protected, she spares no effort in ensuring that everything is covered! She is a great attorney and person, has always been 100% honest with me, and has always been thorough no matter the situation. I highly recommend anyone to contact her for legal consult!

We had a difficult situation with a non-performing contractor who would not return our deposit. Elena managed to get out money back without going to court. We completely recommend her as a problem solver.

Elena was referred to me by a friend, and I am so glad that I took his advice to see Elena. For my post divorce issues, she has been a Godsend. Elena has stood up to opposing counsel's bullying, has been creative in her approach, and has gone above and beyond because I believe she truly cares about her clients. That is why I have referred three of my friends to Elena, who have all retained her as well. I wanted an attorney who cared about my situation and was knowledgeable about the law- I have gotten that and SO much more from Elena.

Elena Sanchez-Curtis provided me with all the guidance and support I needed during my difficult custody battle because of my move out of state. She knew exactly what I wanted to do and used her skills, experience, and expertise to deliver. Elena, cared about my situation and was very effective and professional in court.
