Doug is the best!

I am so happy I found Doug Davis. As co-counsel in a very difficult and contentious case, Doug gave great legal input and advice throughout, along with personal care and compassion that really helped me in a difficult time. Doug is tough, smart, and knowledgeable, with a wealth of experience that wil...l get you a very fair settlement. Almost impossibly, he helped get us to "us" in a mediated outcome that is fair to both parties. I cannot recommend him highly enough. As a person and a professional he is second to none.

Douglas Davis is an exceptional lawyer!

When it comes to choosing the right attorney for your legal-ease, there are often bad, good and great referrals. However, Attorney Douglas Davis is an exceptional one! 
Mr. Davis was recommended to me by a dear friend, regarding my family court matter, i.e., contested divorce, unusual property titl...e issues and basically a virtual legal quagmire; yet Douglas has been expediently proactive from our first communication and highly effective to date. 
As a fellow attorney and business owner, I ascribe to the invaluable 3 C's when it comes to handling my business clients' affairs. Comfortable, Confident & Capable. Doug Davis immediately made me feel Comfortable about my situation. His multiple years of experience, creates his unique methodology and ability to "think outside of the box" which made me completely Confident in his ability to handle my case. Doug's passion for the law and his clients' interests have made all of our consultations professional, clear and concise. In addition, his follow-up actions are deliberate, commanding and resolute. His personal, hands-on approach only resounds his Capable ability to effectively "make things happen himself." In essence, Doug truly enjoys and knows what he is doing! I know unequivocally, that I have made the right choice in retaining his services. Current & Future, Repeat Client

Doug Davis: The Most Powerful Weapon You Can Have In The Courtroom

I had one chance to win custody of my daughter, and needed to choose my attorney wisely. I knew that after consulting with Mr. Davis, I would be hiring the most powerful weapon in Atlanta. Her future and wellbeing were placed in his hands on that day, and Doug did not disappoint. He sincerely ma...tched my passion for protecting her and making sure that she would no longer be used as a financial pawn in my divorce. I did not know of him prior to my custody battle, and only wished that I had used him for the actual divorce case....it would have saved me so much heartache, time and money. He was referred to me by a co-worker who witnessed the pain that I was going through. As a mother, I felt that we were beyond safe and secure in this fight with Doug representing our case. His extensive legal knowledge and experience from having practiced for over 3 decades was evident. He came prepared to fight at each hearing, had incredible work ethic, and led me through step by step. The result? I won full custody of my daughter :-) :-). For anyone who is considering Doug as an attorney, all that I have to say is meet with him! Once you have had a consultation, you will understand how unstoppable and passionate he is... he is a true fighter. Doug Davis is now my go to attorney whenever I need advice, guidance or full representation. My daughter's life depended on him, and he was there for her, for us. I may not have made the right choice in a first husband, but I make an EXCELLENT choice with my attorney! Doug's a keeper :-)
