Posted by Jim | September 28, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Great choice

When I unexpectedly found myself in need of a divorce attorney I began doing my homework. As divorce attorneys were recommended to me, I researched them. When Natalie Teston was recommended to me, I looked at her education, experience, and client reviews and decided to set up an interview. During ...that initial interview with Natalie, I found her to be polite, attentive, and very knowledgeable. I thought Natalie was the professional that I needed so I hired her. Natalie did not disappoint. I made a great choice. She always listened to my concerns and her advice was always "spot on". She was always very professional. Her communication was always timely and informative. If I had to go through the process again ... I'd choose Natalie to guide me through. I highly recommend Natalie Teston.

Child Custody

I have used Coleman and Chamber twice now in a custody case. Both time resulting in an exalent outcome and the best interest of my daughter. Natalie and her paralegal Gina did a great job and was very attentive and quick to respond to my issues and questions. Being Georgia seems to be a mother sta...te i n the courts eyes they worked very hard to make sure my rights as a loving and very active father were not violated. Due to Natalies hard work and attention to detail I went from having Joint custody to full custody. Although each case and outcome may be diffrent for you I highly recommend Natalie for your family law needs.

Excellent Attorney

No one sets out to get a divorce. It is normally not in the "plan", but apparently lots have people have been there and your divorce is probably not even the worst thing Natalie has seen. This lady helps you navigate all the awful with a smile. She was very up front with fees and if I did my part I c...ould keep them as low as possible. So I did and there were no surprises. Available if you just had a question, and Gina was also excellent to work with too. This part, the hiring and working with an attorney was practically painless. Also, and this is KEY, through this experience I learned the hard way that (ahem) OTHER attorneys are not always, how do I say this nicely, fighting fair. As in they can be ruthless, awful people. That's fine, they have to live with themselves... but Natalie is one of the good guys. Honest. Up front. Smart. Strategic. And she'll talk you down rationally when you are feeling anything but rational. And she has great looking bangs.

Amazing!!!

Natalie was amazing from the beginning. When we first met with her she was concerned and took this case to heart! She listened and helped us come up with a plan that would be in our best interest. She is Professional and very organized. If you are looking for someone that will go above and beyond fo...r you, I encourage you to call her and make an appointment so you can meet her. Natalie represented us in a Guardianship case that was very intense, she spent endless hours talking to us and directing us in the direction that we needed to go in order to help our case. She was proactive and encouraging and also honest! She walked into that courtroom and blew everyone away! She is a fighter for not only her clients but for the TRUTH!! She upholds the law and represents it well! She is very smart and not afraid to ask her colleagues for advice if she needs to! This was impressive to me and my Husband and it will be for you! I encourage everyone if you are in need of an Attorney that is as gentle as a lamb, but a bulldog in court, look no further than Coleman, Chambers and Rogers LLC and ask for Natalie Teston you will not regret it. I also want to give praise to Gina Rios the Paralegal all I can say is WOW!!! Gina is very good at what she does and is very patient to listen when you need to just hear an encouraging word. She is very professional and goes above and beyond! Always keeps you updated on court dates and any changes that have been made. Thank you Natalie and Gina for EVERYTHING that you did for me and my family!!!! YOU are the BEST!!!!

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.
