I have consulted with this attorney on family law and business matters. She has never let me down. Its nice to have someone who is unselfish and responsive to the needs of others. She is eager to give advice and will share information to benefit you. I can't say enough special things about this lady. I look forward to working with her in the future.

Attorney Alfred is a wonderful lawyer who cares about her clients. She handled my divorce case and has provided emotional and legal support for me through out my entire case. She always answered my calls and advised me of options that provided the best outcome for my case. Her fees are very reasonable and she is very knowledgeable of Georgia family law. I would recommend her to anyone that is going divorce and doesn't know how to handle it.

Mrs. Alfred's experience as an attorney played multiple roles in my case. Because there was a child involved, Mrs. Alfred took the necessary time and care to protect my child's interest. At the same time, attorney Alfred was timely and thorough with meetings, proceedings and a clearly defined path to address the primary situation. Mrs. Alfred's experience is noted, but her ability to connect, ask and answer questions was greatly appreciated. We were victorious in spite of the challenges. Thanks

Mrs. Alfred An Advocate for Client's and their Children

10/15/18 Mrs. Alfred is very caring, sympathetic, understanding and honest. In addition, she is fair. I think most attorney's would have not only been intimidated by my case, but a high percentage put off because, it covers nearly over a decade of contention and chaos regarding: domestic violence and visitation issues layered with contempt's, GAL (s), counselor's and supervised visitation. In such, a short notice and time-frame that require: trial preparation, notes, open/closing and testimony's. Mrs. Janice was able to gather everything up even with my documents not being as thorough as needed and vindicated both I and my daughter. I feel blessed to have come across her profile, as well as, a client of hers'. I am so thankful. Now, I can sleep, eat, breathe and move on with my life.

Attorney Alfred has my my lawyer for years. After 5 months of not seeing nor knowing where my daughter was living, she was able to track her down. I am now able see my daughter on a regular basis and can be the father she needs. Attny Alfred made a difficult situation work. She has plenty of experience in family law and was able to represent and guide me in the best direction—not only for my best interest, but my daughter’s best interest first & foremost.

Janice was very professional, supportive, knowledgeable, consistent, reliable, and very informative. She walked me through the entire process step by step. She explained how things would work for me, my ex-spouse, and my daughter to ensure I was making the best decisions not just for me and her but for my daughter as well. i would recommend her to any and everyone!
