Professional

Very professional and trustworthy, I had two cases pending and faced some challenges in my first case, Nicol and her staff was very patient in providing the best and worst case scenario in order me to make the best decision. Thank You for all of your help and encouragement

Posted by Michael | May 23, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Best lawyer in Atlanta!

Ms. Hanyard was the second attorney hired for my case for custody and legitimating my son. The first firm hired seemed disinterested in the case, unless the discussion was about extra attorney fees. Then I consulted with Ms. Hanyard. She told me up front what fees would be needed for her to take the ...case. Her word was her bond. Although there were unexpected extra fees in the case, she informed me every step of the way. She really cared about my case, and came up with a winning legal strategy. The legal process can be daunting for a single dad, but Ms. Hanyard was my best representative.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
