About Jessica

I am a solo attorney who is dedicated to providing competent, diligent representation to clients in need of legal assistance.  I  focus on working closely with clients to ensure that custom-tailored representation is offered to suit each client's individual needs.

 I am willing and able to handle cases in many different Georgia counties, but focus on North Georgia including Cherokee, Cobb, and Forsyth.

 I am certified as a Child Welfare Law Specialist by the National Association of Counsel for Children and am also a registered mediator in the areas of General Civil, Domestic Relations, and Domestic Violence with the Georgia Office of Dispute Reolution.

When not providing legal representation to my clients, I love spending time with my family, friends, and dogs as well as golfing, photography, and traveling.

Review Jessica Long

Could not be any happier!!!!

Posted by

Jessica was very responsive! From. The first phone call, until we had the matter resolved she was always 2 steps ahead. She made sure we understood everything and took the time out to explore every option, so we nail it the first try. You will not be disappointed. She was very straight forward and exceeded our expectations. We will definitely call on her if we ever were to need legal advice or needed to retain council.

Jessica helped me win at an impossible divorce situation. There was no easy way out of my divorce. She gave me plenty of reality checks and was available for me especially when I was ready to give up. She fought hard for my daughter and taught me how to do the same. Her passion and talent is unmatched. You want her in your corner when you done messed up.

Parenting plan revised

Posted by

I was wanting to spend more time with my children so a new parenting plan was needed. My first attorney talked a good game but was unable to back it up. I hired Jessica Long as my second attorney for my case during the year long ordeal. I fully wish I had hired her first. Ms. Long worked diligently with the opposing counsel and I feel like I was able to achieve my goal only by obtaining her as my Attorney. She was able to get me more time with my children; more than I would have received if I had stuck with the first attorney. Attonery Long was very informative throughout the two months she represented me. I always felt comfortable after speak with her; she gave great advice and kept me grounded. Attorney Long was honest with me throughout and I really appreciated that. I would recommend her services and definitely use her again if needed.

A Genuine Attorney, Jessica Long

Posted by

I want to thank Jessica Long for supporting me through the hardest times in my life. Jessica was my attorney for my divorce in March of 2018. My ex husband and I couldn't come to a positive end result for our on-going issues that were lingering over us for the past 8 years. Jessica was able to bring a positive resolution for both me and my ex husband that resolved our ongoing civil battle. I would 100% recommend Jessica to anyone going through a separation and divorce. Its the most difficult, emotional time imaginable, Thank you again for your patience, and true generosity for both me and my ex-husband. You have put hope back into my life. Sincerely, LL

Well versed, honest, accessible, kind-hearted and dedicated!

Posted by

Jessica was highly recommended to me by a very dear friend who used Jessica in the past. Jessica is knowledgeable and gave me superb advice, she took the time to get to know me / my situation / my concerns along with my fears, not just concerning the divorce, but what to expect after the divorce and how to deal with certain situations, it was like having an attorney and a counselor rolled in one, Jessica truly cares for her clients and it showed. Jessica is highly responsive to emails/phone calls and text messages (unless she is in court). Jessica far exceeded my expectations, I’m extemely thankful to both my friend for referring Jessica and for Jessica who worked hard as my attorney and did me proud! Thank you Jessica!

One in a million!

Posted by

Jessica is truly the hardest working, most thorough, and honest attorney I've ever worked with. Obviously, needing an attorney is not usually for a pleasant reason, but Jessica definitely made the best of the situation and helped me to learn along the way. She does what she says she'll do in the time frame that she gives and keeps her client updated throughout the process. The best review and compliment I can give is to say that I have already recommended her to others, and should I ever have need for an attorney in the future, Jessica will be the only call I make!

You cannot ask for a better lawyer...someone who cares and will advocate for your interests! I have had the opportunity to work with Jessica personally in court and she knows her way around a courtroom like a seasoned attorney. Very professional, yet always approachable. She promptly returns phone calls and keeps her clients informed at all times. I would highly recommend her.
