Highly recommended

I had a great experience with Brad Sperr. He thoroughly explained every detail of the Trust process as well as the other documents he is preparing for me. I highly recommend him.

When it comes to estate planning, I recommend Brad Sperr.

Brad Sperr is very easy to work with; personable and professional. I was anxious about the whole estate planning process, but Brad walked me through it in terms that I understood. He definitely knows "his stuff". I highly recommend him to anyone who is in need of a lawyer for estate planning. ...

Highly Recommend without Reservation

My husband and I had completed a will on-line but there were a number of components that we were not comfortable with so we made an appointment with Brad Sperr. He was highly recommended on a UGA website, and he did not disappoint. Mr. Sperr is very knowledgeable, extremely patient, and was very ...adept in explaining absolutely every detail of our will. It is easy to get crossed-up in the legal terminology but he explained everything to our satisfaction. He was helpful in so many ways and we had no doubts about any of the decisions we made. We highly recommend Brad Sperr for any legal matter you may have.

Thank You

I want to sincerely thank Brad Sperr for helping me to set up my end of life documents. He answered every question (probably more than once) with kindness & patience and made a very stressful process much less so. My mind is at rest knowing that my family will have everything they need to easily see... that my last wishes are fulfilled. Thank you, Brad. Huge. Jennifer

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.
