Danny and his team
Danny helped me during my divorce. Unfortunately, my ex-wife doesn’t want to follow the court order and we have to go court again. Since the beginning, Danny told me how the case could go, so I knew my options. Danny, Shelby and Matt fought for my case and I couldn’t be more happier. I wish they operate in different states.

Extremely knowledgeable.
I had hired two previous lawyers without any results. After looking at several lawyers on the Avvo website and narrowing it down to 3, I chose Danny Naggiar. During our first meeting I felt very comfortable and confident that he could handle my divorce case. My divorce was supposed to be a simple matter but after my difficult husband continued his demands and lack of representation the process was dragged out for 18 months. Mr Naggiar and his knowlegeable staff worked tirelessly to get me a very favourable outcome. His knowledge and strategies allowed me to settle my case with an outcome that was acceptable to both parties. Many thanks to Mr. Naggiar and his team for an awesome job! Would definitely recommand Danny Naggiar and his law firm. I have already recommended his firm already.

AWESOME MEDIATOR
I recently requested Mr. Naggiar to mediate a highly contentious and complex child custody matter. He is patient, creative, emphatic, highly intelligent. He settled a case that I and the other attorney believed was impossible to settle.
I also was an opposing attorney on a divorce case with Mr. Naggiar. We were able to settle the case expeditiously without a lot of expense to our clients.
I highly recommend Mr. Naggiar as a mediator and and as attorney for family law matters.

Danny is the best, by far!
I hired Danny to represent me in a contested child custody case that lasted a year and a half and went all the way to trial. Danny was perfect throughout the process. Every single bit of advice that he gave me paid off at the end. It was as if he was playing chess while everyone else was playing checkers. There was much adversity to overcome in my case, but Danny never reacted negatively and was always three or four steps ahead of everyone else. When the case was finally heard, Danny's experience, preparation and temperament were on full display. If your case does have to go in front of a judge (and I can tell you that Danny will do everything he can to resolve it before it gets to that point), Danny is the guy you want representing you. Aside from being an excellent attorney, Danny is a great mentor and psychologist. The whole process is extremely stressful, and Danny counseled me along the way, not letting me get too down in the dumps... but at the same time not letting me get too positive when things seemed like they were going well. At the end of the day, Danny and David were able to get the best possible outcome in my case. I cannot recommend these guys enough, and I hope that everyone reading this will give them a chance to represent them.

Exceeded my expectations in every way.
Danny and his team were the perfect choice to handle my case. There were a number of critical decisions I had to make quickly and Danny’s advice was spot on. This was my first experience working with an attorney and Danny made it very comfortable. He is very professional, sincere, patient and will take time to make sure you understand all of the implications of the choices you make. I recommend talking to Danny for any of your legal needs, especially if it is your first experience with an attorney.

Professional and Friendly, Great Experience
Danny Naggiar and his team were very helpful in handling my divorce. Since I had a relatively simple situation, his team helped me get it handled as quickly and painlessly as possible, and delivered for less than the originally quoted price. Would recommend for any legal need.

Danny Naggiar will treat your case like he is defending his own family
Danny Naggiar represented me in a very difficult and contentious custody hearing. He went above and beyond in his representation and treated my case like he was fighting for one of his own. He put together a case that got tremendous results and ultimately changed our lives. Prior to him taking my case, I was very frustrated with the legal system (and lawyers) and did not believe there would ever bee an end to the harrowing custody situation myself and my child were experiencing. I extend deepest Thanks & appreciation to Danny and his legal team and highly recommend his council to anyone seeking an experienced family attourney that actually cares about the lives of his clients.

Sincere service will always lead us to highly recommend them to anyone needing family law representation.
After careful research, our selection of Danny Naggiar proved to be the right one from the first consultation to the resolution of the last issue in our case. We brought a unique situation to Danny that prompted a description of ‘unchartered waters’ as we progressed through the many landmines of our journey. Compassion, communication and competence proved to be the foundation of representation from both Danny and his associate, Cheyayn. This case was an extremely emotional and financially draining issue for us daily, exclusive of legal fees (which, under the circumstances, were very fair), but Danny and his team provided a level of comfort and personal responsiveness throughout the process that included a lot of patience and layman explanations of the legal issues that we faced through many obstacles. As to the unique, we did learn a lot about the law in domestic/family issues that make us more aware for the future, that constantly worked against us the whole way; but this team never found a mountain that they would not climb and persevered against all odds to get us a resolution that we could accept to move forward in life. In reflection, we began to understand how this was an unusual challenge for Danny and are exceptionally grateful that he stood by us to the end. That is really what defines this firm as #1 in our eyes and our appreciation for them and their genuine and sincere service will always lead us to highly recommend them to anyone needing family law representation.

I highly recommend Danny as a divorce attorney. He guided me through an extremely difficult and bitter divorce. Danny always made time to answer my questions and provided sound guidance for proceeding with the divorce. Thanks to Danny, I got the resolution I wanted and can now move on with my life.

I wish I had selected Danny Naggiar from the start...
Naggiar & Sarif really came through in a pinch for me. Statistics: 52 years old man, married 24 years, with three grown children, unemployed in a contested divorce. I had been through a temporary hearing with another attorney and nothing went in my favor. I immediately changed attorneys because I learned no matter how reputable the law firm, not all attorneys do their homework and prepare you for your first day in court. I spoke with Danny Naggiar, who with compassion, took my case and guided me through the second half of my journey to divorce. I recall Danny telling me he’s here to help me lose less because no one really wins in divorce. After meeting Danny, I felt assured that I would be represented well and I could relax. We completed mediation with an agreement. In less than five months, I received a Final Decree of Divorce. I wish I had selected Danny from the start. He did not nickel and dime me. Misty, his paralegal, and he were professional during all engagements. Danny was a God Send…

Excellent Lawyer
The professionalism, confidence, and candor Mr. Naggiar displayed during our initial consultation translated into the courtroom. He represented me on a criminal matter in Dekalb county. He always made time to take my calls, answer my questions, and was prompt at my court appearances. I would highly recommend Mr. Naggiar to anyone who is facing a civil or criminal matter within family law.

My Lawyers for Life
Any divorce is tough- and depending on the situation, very frightening. I was facing a really difficult divorce situation when I first met Danny and David. I was scared, unsure of what to do, and lost when it came to the entire legal system. I have a corporate job and have never had any run-ins with the law- so my divorce was my first real legal situation. Early in my separation, I had hired an attorney that was a “friend of a friend”. They turned out to be non-responsive and saw my divorce as just another case on their docket. I would hardly hear from them for weeks- and then get the run-around on the status of the case. Plus, my soon-to-be ex had hired an expensive firm known for their ability to bully and intimidate opposing counsel. I had my entire life on the line- and kids as well. So, after a few months, I realized I needed much better representation. I did some research and began interviewing different family law attorneys in Atlanta.
Naggiar and Sarif kept rising to the top whenever I searched online. So, I decided to meet with them and see for myself. The moment I met Danny and David- they listened to my situation completely. Their first response was to reassure me that I was going to be ok. I sensed compassion and understanding for my plight from both of them. But there was an underlying resilience that struck a chord- these guys know their stuff and are willing to fight hard for my rights as a father and career professional. They also shared my hope that the divorce could be amicable and limit the impact on my kids. They continued this same sense of calm and understanding throughout the toughest year of my life. They were the rock I could rely upon when I felt things getting out of control- or just downright crazy.
They walked me through every step of the process- allaying my fears and making me feel like I had a real team of tough, smart, professionals working on my behalf. Danny worked primarily on my case- but David made himself available as needed- along with other members of their team. It was like having an entire firm on my side.
I thought hiring a divorce attorney was a necessary evil- something I had to do to protect myself from my ex and her attack dogs. Not only did Danny protect me- but he helped me navigate a settlement without ever going to court- or even mediation! He never nickel-and-dimed me on charges and was open and honest about every aspect of my case. In fact, my ex met him during the course of the proceedings and said she liked him better than her own counsel.
So, my divorce is over and things are much, much better all around. I can honestly say Danny, David, and their team became not only my trusted advisors and protectors- but I consider them friends and my lawyers for life.

Best decision to Hire Danny Naggiar
I utilized the services of Danny Naggiar of Naggiar and Sarif upon a recommendation from a friend when my wife filed for divorce. Danny was instrumental in keeping me focused on what needed to be done and when things would go sideways he always was there to right the ship. Most lawyers only see you as a client but Danny and his staff made me feel as though we were all friends working together towards the final outcome. Despite many bumps caused by the other side Danny got me through one of the most difficult chapters in my life. He even called me a couple months after the case was settled to see how I was doing. I have never heard of a lawyer doing anything remotely similar. If you are looking for a lawyer with the personal touch go no further than Naggiar and Sarif

Danny has represented me twice for small matters and I wouldn't choose anyone else to represent me. He is kind, professional, and takes his time with you. His fees are completely reasonable, and at no point in working with him and his firm do you feel like you are being jerked around. Any legal matters can be daunting and Danny and his staff make you feel at ease. I highly recommend Danny Naggiar.

Compassionate, Honest and Cost Conscious
Maybe the only good thing to come out of this divorce was having Danny in my corner. Pragmatic, efficient and actually concerned for my situation he proved to be a trusted advocate for my position. As so often with attorneys their biggest concern is getting the retainer and moving on to new business. Danny was available and understanding throughout a difficult process. As I searched for representation there were a allot of choices I could have made, but I got lucky, I choose Danny. Best decision I've made in a long time.
