The Best Firm

I am so grateful to Attorney Fairell for her law firm. From the moment I went to my consultation, I knew that this would be the law firm that would represent me in my divorce. Attorney Fairell is extremely knowledgeable and straight to the point. She cares about the law and make sure her clients unde...rstand it. I never doubted her knowledge of the current laws and she made sure I understood what that meant for my case. Attorney Fairell knew and understand my case and always kept me in mind as to how we would proceed. She represented me during my mediation which ended with both me and my ex agreeing and signing our divorce agreement. She made sure I understood what GA laws meant regarding child support and custody, division of assets and alimony. This empowered me to make the right decision for myself with her guidance. I didn’t loose my control to my attorney but was empowered to be a part of the decision making process. She represents the few attorneys that see clients more than just a case. I will forever be grateful to her attorney skills, knowledge and care.

Attorney who needed a good attorney!

My experience with Joi Fairell and The Fairell Firm was phenomenal! It is obvious that Joi is clear about the vision for her firm and she has imprinted that vision upon her staff. As a family law attorney myself, I am very intense about the practice of law. However, I could not control my emotions... enough to represent myself. I was a somewhat difficult client. Nonetheless, Joi and The Fairell Firm remained professional (yet firm) and patient with me from start to finish. The marketing and presentation of this firm was impressive. I was comforted by the office appearance, staff friendliness and ease of the online case management system. It was a plus to go online at anytime and track the activity on my case. Joi and The Fairell Firm obtained a favorable settlement on my behalf when my life savings was subject to equitable division. Because of their legal knowledge, attention to detail and team work, they applied pressure that the opposing party was simply not ready to receive. To say the least, the services rendered were worth every dollar I spent! I HIGHLY recommend this firm for a hotly contested divorce.

Very Understanding

Attorney Fairell was wonderful. She was concerned about my goals, and focused my frustrations into a realistic expectation of outcomes and objectives. This helped to me to decompress mentally from what initially felt overwhelming. Furthermore, I felt as though she was my personal advocate, with my ca...se and my child's best interest at heart. She was well worth the minimal consultation fee. If you are looking for an attorney who is professional and considerate, contact her today.

BEST LAW FIRM EVER!

I came to the Fairell Firm after my legitimation case with a previous attorney was going no where and I knew if I stayed with them I would not get anything I wanted. I needed an attorney who could start my case fast and get me what I wanted. After hiring The Fairell Firm they started working on my ca...se immediately within a week my case was set for a final hearing! My previous attorney never kept me informed on my case and never had answers when I called but with The Fairell Firm all of my questioned were always answered and I could track my case with ease on a website they use. At the end of my case I got everything I wanted and even more! I will defiantly recommend the attorneys at The Fairell Firm to everyone and always come back if I have anymore issues.
