Amazing!

Bob Coleman and Natalie Teston are the best attorneys and Gina is the best paralegal in GA. They went above and beyond and settled my case for 100 percent of what I was asking for plus the opposing party has to reimburse my legal fees!

Could not have asked for a better attorney

My case was a difficult one due to a previous judgement where I was unrepresented and agreed to some things that I should not have. Natalie was wonderful, she explained very clearly how we would proceed each and every step of the way. She always made me feel like I was her only client, and that she... genuinely cared not only about the outcome of my case, but also about me as a human being who was in a bad situation. She is a an excellent attorney and I would recommend her to anyone going through a divorce.

Divorce attorney

I hired Natalie in march 2014 due to divorce proceedings between my spouse and I. The whole divorce was quite bitter, juvenile and petty at times and I did not behave exactly as an adult should but Natalie and her team were absolutely great in all aspects of their involvement. She is very professiona...l, knowledgeable and actually went out of her way to help me and most importantly keep me in the loop on a timely basis. In a time of great uncertainty she was a huge help throughout and I guess more importantly is good at her job as she got me a good outcome. I have worked or dealt with hundreds of attorneys in my life die to my previous job and she us a cut above the vast majority. Natalie is a credit to her company and I would recommend her and the firm she works for to any family and friends. If I ever need an attorney again personally I would not go anywhere else.

" A Lawyer with the Gift of Listening"

The word divorce entered into my family when I turned 41. Never in my life did I think I was headed down that road, but this was not my decision it was hers. My wife of 13 plus years come upon her "mid life crisis." We have three beautiful children together and now I was watching a chapter in my l...ife close before my very eyes when I was served papers. So many issues up in the air. My children, my home, alimony, child support, and the hiring of an attorney. Then I was blessed to meet Natalie Teston from Coleman, Chambers and Rogers LLP. Natalie had the gift of listening. Natalie spent the time needed to really get to know me and my situation. She developed a plan and went to work. Natalie was able to set me up to see my children every other weekend and on Wednesdays. She also set up a plan called, "First Right Refusal", so I could care for my children every time my ex wife decides to go out of town on business sometimes for a couple of weeks or more. Natalie steered me completely clear from paying alimony even though I was married for 13 plus years. She set it up that the majority of my child support was going directly to benefit the children, health insurance, after school care, school supplies, car insurance and extra curricular activities. Finally Natalie was very good to me when it come to billing. Professional courtesy discounts, fees billed at lower rates all played a part in my total satisfaction. I would recommend her to anyone. I am so excited to see what god has planned for Natalie. He has great plans to use her in this field of family law. She was a blessing. Michael Gainesville

The best lawyer I have ever hired.

I called Natalie over a year ago. I was going through a custody battle with my ex over my son. She was asking for more child support and decreasing the time I had with my son.It was a very troubling period in my life. I reached out to two lawyers prior to hiring this firm. These lawyers succeeded in ...prolonging events but did not achieve any positive outcomes for myself. The first meeting I had with Mr. Coleman and Mrs. Teston put my mind at ease. From just giving them minor details about my case , they were able to achieve an aggressive plan to move my case forward. Natalie took my loosing case and drove it forward, gaining much ground in the first few weeks. Through the two years my case went on I was up to the minute on information all the time. I would receive emails and phone calls after her normal hours, just to keep me updated on changes. We were hoping to this matter closed out of court but ultimately this is where the case was finished. I admit I was nervous going into the courtroom. Mrs. Teston's poise and perseverance put my nerves at ease as she spoke to me about her tactics. I now have my son every other week and have a workable agreement on child support. Having this much time with my son is worth everything to me. The hard work and dedication I received from this firm was simply remarkable.I will recommend them to everyone I know and I will never use anyone else. Thank you so Natalie.
