Attorney Lennon advised accepting less money than was ordered by the court, so another attorney was contracted and was able to negotiate the settlement originally sought. At one point Attorney Lennon didn't understand my requests and conveyed this to opposing counsel instead of working to align better with what was explained to her in multiple emails. I would not recommend hiring an attorney who tells opposing counsel that she's "confused" and advises her clients to accept less money than the court has awarded. When I decided on new counsel, Attorney Lennon refunded the majority of her fee.

PAY ATTENTION TO THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS OF ELAINE LEVINE TO SAVE YOURSELF ANGUISH, TIME AND MONEY…read more Please take the time to read this to save yourself from needing to pay again for a different attorney. As a doctor speaking, I rarely give negative reviews to other professionals. In researching an attorney to prepare our wills and trusts, I did read the one negative review for this attorney prior to hiring her and brushed it over. It ended up being a perfect synopsis of our time with Elaine. (Most positive reviews for this firm are for her partner, whom we never met). Let me explain our circumstances. We hired Elaine Levine to prepare trusts and wills for out family. Initially, Elaine was courteous and did exactly what she said she would do. She was friendly, supportive and very easy to reach. She responded well to our numerous questions in a timely and efficient/effective manner. UNTIL she wasn't present for the final signing and we were rushed through the process. Witnesses were present and signed each document PRIOR to any reviews or signatures on our part as they were "in a hurry". We raised objections but they were quickly dismissed. We asked for detailed explainations of each document we were signing and felt very rushed. The final wills were never presented for review. We were told by the person filling in (?who she was, she introduced herself once but we never got a clear understanding, ? think she was some kind of assistant) near the conclusion of the meeting that she was in a hurry and needed to go to pick up her kids! Elaine was sick, but had been sick over a week. The practice clearly had time to notify us to reschedule. All for naught; we wasted $3,500 on USELESS wills and trusts that need to be redone by a special needs attorney for our son's special needs trust. Elaine was very well aware that we needed a special needs trust from the beginning and she (copiously) informed us she was NOT a special needs attorney. However, we had no idea of the implications of this (special needs attorney should always be seen FIRST to avoid wasting your time and money). We felt abandoned after our final meeting and then the relationship with Elaine turned hostile when we confronted her with the situation regarding her having to have KNOWN that the special needs trusts need to be done FIRST. Despite our reaching out regarding changes of beneficiaries not going througg and a request to review a brief 2 paragraph letter to family explaining what the documents were, we were rudely rebuffed by Elaine that her services had been concluded. The percentages of distribution to our non-special needs children in the conduit trust was INCORRECT. When we tried to rectify this, we were told in no uncertain terms that our relationship was now "concluded" (ie, payment had been received, I assume) - leaving us with INCORRECT, useless documents. Would definately NOT RECOMMEND Elaine Levine!!!! I should add that a while after everything was completed (we thought), an associate in her office reviewed our file and reached out to say a part of the paperwork was never received. This paperwork was mailed to us and when I called back for further instructions, Elaine got one the phone and was exceptionally rude, stating that since she read my review on line and knew how I felt about her, she wouldn't be helping us any longer and that we could just keep the unsigned paperwork her office sent. She made it clear that she had NO INTENTION of completing our file. She made sure all communication thereafter was terminated. HORRIBLE PROFESSIONALISM!!!!!!! What a waste of time and money!!!! Sickening.

I had a stressful case that I almost gave up on, but she fought valiantly on my behalf and won in every category, yielding an outcome that surpassed my expectations. Attorney Clark is heaven sent. She's very personable and her staff are reflective of her character. My case lasted for years and it was an arduous battle, but my attorney bested all the efforts of the opposing team. Thank you Attorney Clark. Thank you Shaleen, and many thanks to the rest of the Clark Law Firm. I'll recommend this firm to any and everyone as I couldn't think of a better group of people to represent anyone's best interests. They care, they fight for you, they follow through regardless of if your case lasts a few months or a few years, and they deliver! God bless you all.

In my case, I had made a big error 2 years ago: signed a divorce settlement agreement, without getting reviewed by a lawyer.

But she also showed empathy towards me and felt my pain for not receiving a fair share of the financial burden from my ex-wife. I would recommend her to anyone in need of a knowledgeable divorce attorney in the state of Georgia.

I can't recommend Cheryl and her staff highly enough. They are incredible legal advocates!…read more At the beginning of my case, my process server told me Cheryl was a "pit bull" in the courtroom--and he was absolutely right. She won every legal argument, even when the odds were stacked against me. My ex hired five or six different sets of attorneys throughout the case, and Cheryl outmatched every one of them. Thanks to Cheryl and her team, I was awarded primary custody of my child, the house, retirement assets, and child support. Based on how the case was going, I probably could have pursued alimony as well. And just so everyone knows--I'm the husband! That makes these results even more remarkable. Cheryl also did an outstanding job representing my stepdaughter in her case when the odds were stacked against her, too. I absolutely love Cheryl, Liz, and the entire team. They are powerful, effective, compassionate, and worth every dollar--and then some. If you want attorneys who will fight for you and deliver results, this is the team to hire. Thank you, Cheryl! --Michael H. (Ha! Cheryl definitely knows who I am!)

Examples: The guardian engaged a psychologist for my alienated children. I found out through the guardian's invoice. I found out that mediation talks were progressing through my invoice. I found out that a second mediation was in the works through an invoice 3 months later, even though another is not required. Mediated agreement was never submitted as an order of the court. When the mother refused to follow the agreement we signed, she could not be held in contempt of court. I had to get a temporary hearing with a new lawyer, where I was finally able to get temporary custody and have this submitted as an order. 5 months of violations were not acted upon, and no longer qualified as an emergency. I had to wait for additional violations to get a temporary hearing. When I changed lawyers, I also discovered that most of the new evidence was never added to my case file. The discovery period expired without filing for records, so the opposing counsel was able to block all attempts to get official school and medical records. There was no movement in this case for months, but once I changed attorneys, I got a lot of traction, was able to get in front of a judge, and gain temporary custody until a final hearing could be set.
