Exceptional divorce lawyer
If you’re looking for someone who is thorough and will fight hard for you, Anna Bolden is the one to hire. Best decision I made in my divorce proceedings. I will recommend Ms. Bolden to as many people as I can. If I could give her 10 stars I will. If you want someone who thinks of everything and knows everything, look no further.

Divorce
Anna came highly recommended by a very close friend, who is a teacher like myself. To begin with, she gained my trust and confidence from the consultation day one! My divorce case was not as simple as I’d perceived. Anna’s expertise and professionalism throughout the entire process was impeccable! Originally, my goal was one thing, but Anna ensured that my rights were protected which was most important. Anna’s awesome representation sets the standard! While each case is different, she reminded me that my case is unique because my needs and life circumstances are specific to me and the outcome should be as such! I am super satisfied with Anna’s service! She served me and my family well! Above all else, I left the situation with my dignity and respect to move forward with confidence and in peace!

How many people do you know who love their divorce lawyer?
I interviewed many attorneys in this area and surrounding counties. Some were good, some not so good. Some were crazy expensive, some cheap. Going with Ms. Bolden was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. Brilliant, aggressive, wise, affordable. Do yourself a favor and consult with her!

Highly Competent
Anna represented me in a child custody modification case which we won. She was extremely efficient, very diligent, strategic, patient, articulate, with a very calm disposition. I wish I could afford to give her a million dollars!

Divorce
Anna Bolden helped me to resolve a divorce in a matter of months. She never increased the drama and always watched out for all of my interests. Not just legal ones. She has integrity and is intelligent and knows her law. She never lets her clients make any decisions that would harm the future of the settlement.

Exceptional Lawyer, Patience of a Saint
Anna Bolden is a lifesaver. Not only did she represent/guide me through traffic court in Athens (which we all know is an absolute circus) but she has patiently continued to help me even after I racked up two more tickets for the same thing. It is remarkable that even though I am admittedly a less than ideal client, Anna represented me to the very best of her ability and was even able to get the points from one infraction completely taken off my record. If you’re looking for an intelligent, stylish, patient, and kind lawyer with great hair who will stick with you even if you’re a dumbass, Anna Bolden is the one to call!

The best attorney in Athens!
Anna is the best lawyer you can hire in Athens! I can say that because I bounced around with other local lawyers before finally ending up with Anna for a divorce that dragged on for two years mainly b/c of the other party. The others left a bit of a mess in my case for her to clean up but even with the uphill battle ahead, she worked so hard to get a really good parenting and financial plan that was fair for everyone. One thing I would say is, trust her strategy. She is a no-nonsense, let's get the work done lawyer. She will not waste your money or your time, or hers for that matter. She works efficiently and diligently; while being one of the most empathetic person I know! I hope I never have to hire a divorce lawyer again, but if you find yourself in this difficult juncture of life I can unequivocally & without any hesitation recommend Anna as the best attorney here in Athens.

Hire her, you will not regret it.
Anna was recommended to help me in magistrate court. I spoke with her a couple of times and she listened to my concerns and details about the situation. She came into court professional, prepared with all of the facts that I shared with her, and ready to nail the hearing. She nailed it for sure! I knew she is just what my family and I needed! She has stuck by me and been my attorney in the superior court since then, which was several years ago. In an ongoing, stressful and very difficult divorce she has brought my concerns and the contempt of my ex husband since the divorce to the courts and fought hard for my family as if it were her own. Anna is smart, she knows the law and she stands strong in fighting for the many things my family deserves. I highly recommend hiring Anna if you are looking for an attorney who is aggressive, confident, knows the law, will abide by all the terms the law, and who is personable and sensitive to your personal situation all at the same time. I think the world of Anna!

Great Lawyer
Ms.Bolden was very informative and helpful through the entire case. She informed me of my choices moving forward and ultimately got the case dismissed. She was very professional and I highly recommend her.

One of the best!
Anna Bolden represented me for a year and a half when i was charged with a felony. We ended up going to trial where Anna proved her knowledge and experience, and did her best in the courtroom and I was found Not Guilty. She is an amazing attorney and definitely knows what she is doing. Not only did she get me the best possible outcome but she also supported me emotionally every time i would panic about what possible results we could get. She is a wonderful lawyer and an amazing person. I would recommend her to anyone seeking good results in their case.

Very pleased!!!
I am so glad I chose Anna to represent me in my custody case. I initially went through almost 1 full year with a different lawyer who drug his feet, did not respond in a timely manner, if at all, and was not pushing for results. I was merely told incorrect information and to sign here because this was how the state court worked… Anna took the case with less than one month’s time until my 3 times rescheduled court date… and she surprised me with how prepared she was in comparison to the previous lawyer that had almost one year to review and negotiate. She answered any and every question I had, and even posed some of her own to ensure she would be covering the full scope of my situation. Anna went above and beyond to settle my case, and we settled minutes before the judge appeared on the stand… which to me was a complete miracle since this process had been unnecessarily drug out for almost one year. She worked to find what was best for my child, which is all I have ever wanted. The decisions were very fair, and Anna is well versed in family law. I would recommend Anna Bolden to anyone. She was always available when I needed her, and assisted in any way she could. Her results are the best I could have ever hoped for, and I thank her so much for making sure I could see and be with my child in a ‘no string attached’ manner as it should have always been. I can now be the dad I am meant to be, and am so grateful to her. I can finally move on with my life with my child, and there is nothing but brighter things ahead.

Excellent work and follow up
I had the pleasure recently of using Anna in a Traffic Case. I found her highly professional and very knowledgeable. Both Anna and her staff were very thorough especially since the case involved working with a dated case that could have cause significant problems. Anna was very honest about our chances of resolving the issue and open to questions. The great news is that she was successfully able to resolve the case to my best benefit. I could not have asked for any more professional lawyer to handle my case and represent me. I strongly recommend Anna Bolden and her professional services.

Amazing Attorney
Anna was very understanding and very professional in helping me with my divorce case. The other party was difficult to deal with at times, but she handled everything right away while making me feel at ease as well. She always kept me well-informed and prepared. In the end, the court ruled in our favor as we expected. Anna was amazing throughout this entire experience and I couldn't imagine doing this without her! I will recommend her without hesitation!
