Teresa Saggese Mills

At Saggese Mills Law Firm, "our livelihood is devoted to protecting yours." (TM)

 We represent individuals in employment matters across the State of Georgia.  We provide free telephone consultations, with an experienced attorney, not support staff.  The legal experience can be frightening, but it need not be, once you are armed with caring, experienced, determined legal representation.  

You are not alone.  Discrimination in employment is illegal, whether it takes the form of sexual harassment, or any discrimination or harassment based upon a person's race, age, gender, disability or religion.  Employers often bank on employees not knowing their rights or finding an attorney who has the concentrated expertise to handle this specialized area of the law.  It's all we do.  Ms. Mills has dedicated her livelihood to protecting yours.

Saggese Mills Law Firm was established in Atlanta, Georgia, to provide legal representation of individual employees and of employers in employment litigation matters.  Prior to that, its principal, Attorney Teresa Saggese Mills, was a Litigation Partner in a major Atlanta law firm.  By her demonstrated trial effectiveness and commitment to law practice,  she was elected partner after one year of association with the firm, bypassing its normal five-year partnership track requirement.   Ms. Mills then established her own law firm in Atlanta,  Saggese Mills Law Firm, which recently relocated to Macon, Georgia, Ms. Mills' hometown and a more centralized location for the Firm's statewide clients.  In addition to a statewide practice, Ms. Mills enjoys a national and international client base, and she is qualified to appear in any United States trial court by pro hac admission. 

In 2016, Ms. Mills was elected to the Board of Directors of the National Employment Lawyers Association, Georgia Affiliate (NELA-GA).  She was also named Chair of its Continuing Legal Education (CLE) Committee, and presided at the Georgia State Bar's annual Institute of Continuing Legal Education in Georgia Seminar on Litigating the Plaintiff's Employment Law Case, in Atlanta, Georgia, on September 23, 2016.  In 2017, she was elected to the office of Secretary of NELA-GA, and named Chair of its CLE Committee and again presided at the annual Seminar, with a slate of six federal judges agreeing to appear on the panels, and a record turnout of attorneys in attendance.  She continues to serve as Secretary of NELA-GA for 2018.

Since 1997, Ms. Mills has been awarded the AV-Preeminent Rating, the highest national rating in legal ability and professional ethics, by Martindale-Hubbell, Inc., the national peer review rating society.  From 2012 through the present, she has been selected as one of Georgia's Top Rated Lawyers by Martindale-Hubbell, with the listing published in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the Wall Street Journal and Forbes Magazine.  She has also been honored as a Life Fellow of the Georgia Bar Foundation.  Membership in the Foundation is limited to the top four percent of the members of the State Bar of Georgia.  According to the Bar, "invitation to membership in the Fellows Program is an honor that recognizes those lawyers whose public and private careers demonstrate outstanding legal abilities and a devotion to their communities."
