Frequently Asked Questions

For advice tailored to your situation, please contact us directly.

Do I need an attorney for a real estate closing?

Georgia real estate closings require a Georgia licensed Attorney. Having an attorney ensures your contracts are reviewed, your rights are protected, and potential issues are addressed before they become costly problems. An attorney can also coordinate with lenders, title companies, and agents to keep the process smooth.

What’s the difference between a will and a trust?

Bring a list of your assets, debts, and beneficiaries, as well as any existing legal documents (like wills, trusts, or powers of attorney). Don’t worry if you’re not sure where to start—your attorney will guide you through the process step by step.

What legal services do you provide for businesses?

We assist with entity formation, contracts, transactions, and ongoing representation as outside counsel. Whether you’re starting a new venture or managing an established business, we help you navigate legal requirements and protect your company’s interests.

How much do your services cost?

Fees depend on the complexity of your matter. Some services may be billed at a flat rate (like certain real estate closings), while others are billed hourly. We’ll always provide a clear explanation of fees before starting work so there are no surprises.

What should I expect during my first consultation?

During your initial consultation, we’ll review your situation, answer your questions, and discuss potential options. You’ll leave with a better understanding of your legal path forward and how we can help.
