I'm a Georgia native born and raised in the rural south. I graduated with a degree in social work from Georgia State University where I also worked part-time and volunteered with children. I've travelled extensively in Cuba, Europe, and the U.S.; favoring D.C., Destin, and New Orleans. I try to prioritize self development through reading and writing, and believe that being an attorney is a calling to serve the general public.

Peace of Mind!

Chelsea quickly responded to my calls and emails. I received a case evaluation for my Pro Se Divorce case. Chelsea drafted a Motion to Dismiss a Counterclaim in my Case. I'm grateful for her upfront pricing and giving me a peace of mind with my Court Case.

Diligent Lawyer

Chelsea Wilkerson has been a wonderful attorney to work with! She completed three documents (Last Will and Testament, Financial Power of Attorney, and Advanced Directive) for me in a professional and timely manner. She was responsive with emails and phone calls. She also took time to get to know me and develop a relationship, which I appreciated. I will definitely reach out to her in the future for any legal help.

Modification for Support

Shakhan & Wilkerson Law LLC, very professional. I would not think about using anyone else but Shakhan & Wilkerson Law. My reason for thinking Shakhan & Wilkerson is the Best Law Firm in Georgia. Always very Professional Reasonable Priced Always very Polite Always return phone calls, emails, and texts in a reasonable response time. Always straight forward and honest Always go into details about the case, what going to happen next. How they plan to go to respond forever scenario.

Professional

I spoke with attorney Wilkerson at Shakhan and Wilkerson Law Firm after getting some bad news from my previous attorney. After discussing my case with her and how uninformed about it that I was, she set my mind at ease. Attorney Wilkerson knows the Law. I let my previous Attorney go, then hired Shakhan and Wilkerson Law Firm. My case is now back on track and I don't have to chase my Attorneys down they give me weekly updates.
