Divorce

Georgia Newman is an excellent and very professional attorney, she is very attentive to the needs of her clients, and was extremely helpful in negotiating an amicable settlement to my difficult and complex divorce case, and thus I was able to avoid onerous and risky court proceedings.. I recommend h...er very highly.

Posted by Sonya | August 04, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Ground Breaking LGBT Custody case

Georgia was able to get custody of my child when every Gay rights attorney turned me down. Georgia not only managed to get me custody but, secured my position in a divorce settlement when we were joined in a Civil Union in Vermont. I was granted a divorce and 50/50 Custody. I have full faith and c...onfidence in Georgia's ability to understand and represent the law to the best of her ability. More importantly Georgia T. Newman secured my parentage and my parental rights by having my name added to my childs birth certificate. Trust in Georgia's ability as an attorney and believe in her intuition as a trusted advisor.

Outstanding Attorney.

As a successful lawyer, I believe I can discern whether a lawyer is outstanding,average or poor. I hired Georgia to replace an average attorney in a divorce proceeding when my then wife hired a lawyer reputed to be outstanding. Having completed the divorce in a very satisfactory manner, I am thrilled... I hired Georgia, We would not have settled it but for her skills. She also was able to help keep my emotions in check. I am an aggressive lawyer so that says a lot. I highly recommend Georgia.

Georgia Newman is great

Georgia is excellent. When I went through mediation w my ex wife, she was extremely well prepared and advocated perfectly for me. Of the 11 things that I wanted from mediation, she got me 10 of them. She was superior to opposing counsel.
