Sumner represented one of my best friends in a divorce and custody battle, and I feel compelled to sing his praises. His mix of professionalism, intelligence, persistence, integrity and compassion makes him not just a great attorney, but a great partner you want by your side through one of the tou...ghest journeys in life – divorce & custody. Knowing that he was working on my friend's case gave me great peace of mind. He is untiring, he has your best interest at heart and he'll always tell you the truth. He was a saving grace in our lives. With Sumner and his team, rest assured that you have the best and brightest by your side. They give you 100% of everything they have. Thank you Sumner and team to your dedication to justice!

In my opinion, each case is unique to the situation. Depending on that situation, the attorney uses the gathered facts to best present the case. If an attorney advises a client a favorable action plan to support the case, I would accept that plan with considerable weight knowing that he/she knows be...st due to years of experience. It is also the responsibility of the client to follow the attorney's advice. Having done so, Sumner Riddick earned a favorable decision for my unique situation. I had a child out of wedlock in the state of Georgia. I was awarded primary custody. For the expense of a custody battle, Sumner Riddick was the best choice.

Sumner is Excellent! He is very firm and straight to the point which made me comfortable and gave me confidence that my situation was going to work out okay. Sumner and his team also have an extremely good handle on the workings of the Gwinnett County Court System which saved time, cost, and avoide...d much aggravation spent wondering what was happening on that end of things (I knew what was going on at EVERY STEP). He and his team utlized my funds very efficiently and in a manner that I felt i received very good value for my money, and I received a tally at the end of each month that showed how each penny was spent. Sumner also cared about me as a person (including my health) through this difficult time, which increased my confidence in Sumner and his team in knowing that they really had MY best interests at heart. The numerous awards hanging in the lobby of his office (in my opinion) are not mere tokens of commendation. They are for a job extremely well done and I would recommend Sumner to anyone who is serious about hiring one of the best attorneys in town.

Mr. Riddick did an exceptional job of explaining the process that I would endure. He and his firm were sensitive to my needs in a very difficult time. They handled everything with professionalism, urgency, and detailed communication. They were always available to answer any of my questions or conc...erns. Mr. Riddick was always prepared and made certain to have an answer for any possible issues that might arise from opposing counsel. Mr. Riddick was very knowledgeable and his experience in court was evident as he did an amazing job at trial. As negotiations ensued, Mr. Riddick pushed and knew exactly how to handle unreasonable demands. The firm handled billing fairly and was always available to answer my questions. I would definitely recommend Mr. Riddick.

Divorce is an industry that undoubtedly brings out the worst in people. Sumner Riddick navigates that industry with compassion. I cannot think of a greater thing to say about a divorce attorney. After years of seeing mankind at their worst, he still manages to see you as an individual while assist...ing you with your legal issues. I was referred to Sumner to handle my divorce. I was impressed from the moment I met him at how quickly he formulated responses. He is quick witted, which is certainly a necessary strength in his position. He was insightful enough to ask questions when necessary to gain an accurate picture of my specific situation. I wanted a legal counselor who was able to think quickly on his feet. I was not disappointed at any point in our relationship. When it came to drafting legal documents, I was exceptionally impressed with his writing skills. I attribute a large portion of my happiness with Sumner’s overall performance to the documents he drafted on my behalf. He was savvy about what to say and eloquent in how he said it. Once we established a goal, Sumner guided me towards it. He helped me stay focused on the goal as he advised me what in his experience was the best way to achieve it. He was consistently upfront with me about what was realistic and what was not. He walked me though what was important to negotiate, and what we needed to concede on. At every turn of a long divorce I was grateful Sumner was my counselor.
