This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.
| Consulted Attorney
Brief consultation
I appreciated his willingness to give me a brief description of Georgia Law relating to a water related issue that popped up after my neighbor did some landscaping last winter. He also advised me to try to avoid the court system-something I knew I wanted to avoid, but I appreciate a lawyer who isn't trying to drum up expensive work for himself. I also appreciate that he was willing to do a brief 5-minute phone conversation without charge.

Quick Response and To the Point
Mr. Daughdrill answered my questions relative to urban tree law by outlining the guiding general concepts and also by providing specific answers to my more targeted questions. Best of all he responded rapidly to my initial message and I was able to speak with him quickly which to me is one of the more important attributes to consider when engaging an attorney. While I have some decisions to make about my situation I now feel better equipped to move forward than prior to the consultation.

Consultation
I contacted Mr. Daughdrill for advice on a Real Estate situation I am currently experiencing and his knowledge and expertise in the matter was phenomenal. Not only did he give me excellent advice on how to proceed and what my options were, he explained it in simple terms so that I was able to understand how to proceed and make an informed decision. I highly recommend Mr. Daughdrill to represent anyone and would definitely use him again in the future, if I ever need legal advise or representation

Wonderful advice and highly knowledgable about law!!
I contacted Mr. Daughdrill for advice relating to a tenant landlord dispute which also had some family law woven in. He was not only professional but he was considerate and seemed empathethic to my perils. He responded to my inquiry immediately and offered telephone advice and future assistance with my issue should that not resolve my situation. I am highly appreciative for an attorney like this and with his many experiences in multiple areas of the law he is definitely someone I'll be adding to my contacts to conduct business with in the future. I was quite impressed!!

Searching for an Attorney to review my case...
In attempting to contact an Attorney to review my case, I was told repeatedily that I would need to come in for a free consultation However, upon calling Attorney Daughdrill, I was told he was in court, and that I could leave a voice message, which I did. I was so impressed when he called me back, and offered such valuable information regarding my case. I would definitely use him for future needs, as well as recommend his services!!!

Effective
Mr. Daughdrill is a very effective attorney, I have been using his services for many years for collection and leasing. He has always went above and beyond to assure that all issues are handled with the utmost professionalism. His knowledge has been highly beneficial in collecting from tenants who are in default.
