Best Legal Team to Have on Your Side

Lizz and Alex and their entire team worked diligently and tirelessly to take my divorce case over from another attorney. Their team concept helps tremendously when you may need a question answered or to provide information when Lizz or Alex is on another case. Lizz is a great leader and seems to no...t only be well respected and liked by her peers, but even the court house staff in my county. She fought hard for me when my now ex-husband insisted on pushing forward all the way to a trial knowing I was disabled and could no longer work and have no family who is even remotely in a position to assist my health needs financially or otherwise as they are all 20-30 years older than me, retired, and hence on a fixed income. We couldn't believe their position knowing the truth of the matter after my suffering with my health issues for now 18 years to only have deteriorated as I aged and then could no longer work! The opposing team insisted on bringing my doctors and other experts in to testify only to spend most of our hard earned savings when my now ex-husband knew exactly what the doctors and other healthcare professionals would say when a settlement was an easy option, yet they kept refusing to sit down to work out a compromise or stipulate to Medical Narratives and Affidavits. Lizz and her team, especially their paralegal who worked so hard on my case, Hailey Ray, did everything possible to get me financial help and set me up in my elder years. I am typically not one to offer praise or referrals unless the firm, company or product made such a positive impact. I am extremely proud to say I would refer anyone to Hait & Kuhn as they truly will work hard on your case (even while sick or on vacation) to get you the very best result possible. The divorce has just been finalized, but Hait & Kuhn and team are still working feverishly and affordably to assist me as I cannot do much for myself any more. They are referring me to other great people and organizations to assist in setting up my future. I honestly couldn't have asked for a better defense team. Lizz and Alex will be the first phone call should I have issues with my ex-husband in the future. I would trust no one else to represent me. It truly has been a pleasure working with the entire team! Thank you all at Hait & Kuhn!

Results

Lizz represented my in a alimony modification.. I had began my case with another firm and they just were not able to get anywhere with it .. Once I hired Lizz and her team for the first time ever I really felt liked they listened to me and made me feel they could help .. This case was tough and took ...quite some time but they had my back every step of the way . I really can't say enough to compliment them on all their hard work .. Also over the course of the litigation several personal friends had told me they also used Lizz for their legal needs and were very happy with their representation.

Thank you so much! We know litigation is taxing emotionally, and financially. We do not always get the slam dunk win like we did with your case, but by golly we will try for all of our clients. Amazing how small we learned this world is. My favorite story is when you and your buddy were arguing who hired the best attorney only to agree it was our firm and we represented both of you separately!

Number one Attorney in Georgia

They say " An attorney's true ability is measured in the evaluations of their peers" Liz as I know her meets and exceeds this statement. I have found since she has taken our case on has been "TOUGH as NAILS". The fight for custody of our children has been very difficult time in our life. Her and her ...firm has worked tirelessly to help me and my family come back together. She is a fantastic Attorney. Every moment of my case has been given the upmost attention and care. We have finally found our Guardian Law Angel. If you hire her and her firm you will see results. With out her I've lost my family forever.

Amazing Group!

Hait & Kuhn is an amazing group of people. They are so helpful and informative. I would suggest them to everybody I know to help support them and guide them through their legal issues. They listen to your concerns and wishes and do everything in their power to help you. I'm so grateful for all their ...help and guidance.

Phenomenal Attorney with World Class Professionalism

I was introduced to Elizabeth Kuhn 2 years ago. She came highly recommended from other attorneys in her field. I was served with custody papers and at the time had no idea what this meant for me. Lizz directed me patiently step by step through what I could expect. I felt that her fees were reasonable... and her knowledge was vast. During this process Lizz and her paralegal team made sure that I was handling the process well. If I had any questions they were very prompt with returning my emails and phone calls. Lizz gives a very realistic point of view to a very emotional process. She thinks clearly and gives accurate and appropriate directions, which provided me a level of sanity to cope with this process. She was able to argue my case adequately and resolve any major issues without my case having to go to court. I have and will continue to recommend Elizabeth Kuhn to all of my family and friends. I am confident in her abilities as an attorney and am forever grateful for the role she played in helping me get my life back on track.

Thanks! We do take the team approach on all of our cases. This means we can help clients even when we are in court and in depositions. Having a full staff in both Alpharetta and Woodstock means you can actually meet with a person who knows what is going on even when Alex and I are unavailable. Thank you for all of these kind words ;-)
