Great attorney!!
I recently had to file for bankruptcy, and Blanton made this very difficult process much easier. He was through in his explanations, and I always knew what was happening and what my options were. Blanton was also quick to return emails and phone calls. I would recommend him to anyone!

Family Trust
Blanton did a wonderful job with some additions and revisions to our family trust. He used innovative methods to ensure our family was satisfied with the revisions to the trust and helped us correct some issues with our parents' wishes. He took the time to explain everything to us and our Mom so that we all understood. He explained all the options and helped us make an informed decision about our family trust.

Estate / Minor Child
My ex-husband passed away unexpectedly at age 45 this past December, leaving behind an adult son and minor daughter. He did not have a will. Not knowing what to do, I contacted Blanton and his guidance was SO very helpful. Blanton was very caring and professional.

I had a dispute with an apathetic landlord involving co-renters that ignored all rules of the lease by engaging in illegal drugs, underaged drinking, and loud parties every weekend. Mr. Lingold promptly helped me convey my concerns to an otherwise uncaring landlord through a demand letter pointing out all of my rights as a renter. His fee was very reasonable.

A Lawyer who will fight for you!
Dealing with legal matters can be very stressful. Mr. Lingold helped our family deal with a very difficult court case. He was honest and up front about what the outcome of the case could be, but he was willing to give his all. Before the court date, Mr. Lingold answered all of our questions and gave us peace of mind during an extremely stressful time in our lives. During our hearing, Mr. Lingold was well prepared and won our case. We are satisfied with his representation and we are so thankful.

Happy customer
We hired Mr. Lingold for a CH13 case. Ours is a complicated case and we already had one attorney back out on us. Mr. Lingold saw our case through and was able to handle all of our issues professionally.

Reliable & Reasonable
Mr. Lingold has helped us with two, unrelated cases; one on C 13, and the other one was for a traffic violation. He represented us well, which resulted in a positive outcome. Even if you choose not to finally retain him, he is well accomplished, and is clearly NOT about taking your money so its worth a consult. I have heard he is also charitable in giving back to the community. All of this, and more, sums him up and genuinely good lawyer.

Legal Support
I am in Washington, DC and needed specialized legal support for family issues in GA. Mr Lingold was referred to me by an old and trusted friend. He and I did all of our coordination via email and telephone and I found him superb. Quick, thorough, well reasoned advice, good suggestions about how to handle several legal concerns around a Chapter 7 action and an updated will. His costs were extremely reasonable and his responsiveness was outstanding. I fully recommend this exceptional counselor to those in need of legal assistance and high quality support.
