The best attorney around

We have hired Blake several different times. He has gone above and beyond on our cases. He is an excellent attorney. If your looking to hire someone, this man is the best in my book. Thank you Blake!

Blake was very professional and went over all of my options. He was able to get the my divorce finalized quickly. Every obstacle that came up he was able to take care of. I would highly recommend Blake Poole.

Extremely poor communicator

Mr. Poole was recommended by a member of his prior law firm. We were hesitant in that he was young and his lack of experience He started our case full blast and we were very impressed with the things he told us that would happen and we felt we had made the right decision so when he left the law f...irm and branched out on his own we went with him since he knew the case so well. Years later the case is still not settled , very little he has said has been true, he will not return phone calls, text or emails ( over a month). Not once has he given a billing statement or explained what he has charged for. His secretary has no knowledge of a reason he will not return messages/ calls when we have asked her if he is in court and to busy to call. We have asked her if she could talk with him and just relay message back to us, of which she so kindly reply's she will relay the message on to him . She has been so very nice during this time and appears embarrassed that he hasn't returned calls or messages. For the above reasons and his non professionalism I would never recommend him to anyone.

Defense Attorney

Blake was very new to the group that I knew very well. He was recommended to me from another one of the foundering attorneys. I was a bit hesitate at first because he was young. But in a very short time I not only found out that I could trust him with my case but that he was capable of letting him do...ing and renegotiating my case and not except anything that was not anything that was in my best interest. I would tell anyone if you need an attorney and are concerned about finding one that is going to work for you 110% to get you cleared or to get you the very best deal you could get from anywhere else. He truly is responsible, compitient, very caring about you and your family and seeing. That you get the best repentastion in your court case. And if you need to discuss something you can call his office and if he is not in court or with another client. You will get to speak with him immediately. If any of the other be the case, then as soon as he becomes available he will return your call immediately. Safe your life by putting your life in Blake Poole's hands. I am very, very pleased with him and would love for all the others in need of attorney to give Blake A. Poole Attorney, Suite 200 in The Housh Building downtown Gainesville, Ga. 30501.

WORTH IT! MONEY WELL SPENT!!

I had to retain him 3 times regarding family law matters. Blake is very personable, professional and competent. He knows how to interpret the law and apply the facts to the case. His firm should be privileged to have such an well rounded attorney. In the court room he is in his element. " WOW" he ha...s left me speechless and victorious all three times. If you have any family law matters I STRONGLY ADVISE HIM PERIOD!!! Contact him to day.
