Estate planning, business counsel, and family law for CSRA families and small business owners — priced upfront, written in plain English, and handled by an attorney who picks up the phone.
We don't try to do everything. We do a handful of things — estate planning, business counsel, family law, and real estate — and we do them in a way that respects your time, your wallet, and your need for a straight answer.
Get it done once, correctly, so you can stop carrying it around in your head.
For the small business owner who suspects they're exposed somewhere and is finally ready to find out.
A stressful season deserves a lawyer who explains the road ahead before quoting a number.
Licensed in both Georgia and South Carolina — useful when your life happens on both sides of the Savannah.
No mystery, no runaround. Four steps from your first call to a closed file — with a real attorney on the line at every one of them.
Fifteen to thirty minutes on the phone. You describe the situation, we tell you what's actually involved and what it will cost. No charge, no obligation.
If we're a fit, you get a one-page engagement letter with the total fee written in plain English. You sign once and that number doesn't move.
We draft the documents, walk you through every meaningful clause, and answer your questions until you can explain back to us what you signed and why.
We handle execution, recording, and notice — and you leave with a copy of everything plus a cell number you can call when life changes.
A short list — but the part of our practice we're most particular about.
Most of our work is flat-fee. When something genuinely needs an hourly arrangement, we tell you why and we cap it in writing.
It does depend — on a handful of specific facts. We'll tell you which ones and what each answer changes.
Every client gets a direct cell number at intake. You'll hear back the same day. Usually within the hour.
The ones people actually call to ask — pricing, process, and what it really looks like to work with a firm like ours.
Before you engage us, you'll get a written quote for the full piece of work — not an estimate, not a "starting at" number. That fee includes drafting, revisions, the signing meeting, and recording or filing where applicable. If something genuinely outside the scope comes up (say, a contested probate caveat instead of a simple will), we'll tell you before we do any of it.
Because the CSRA straddles the state line and your family's affairs usually do too. A property in North Augusta, a business registered in Augusta, a parent moving across the river — these don't have to be handled by two separate firms. We're admitted to practice in both states, which means one engagement, one fee, one attorney who knows both sides of the bridge.
Same business day. Every client gets your attorney's cell number at intake — not a paralegal, not a receptionist, not a general inbox. If we're in a hearing or signing meeting when you call, we'll text you back within the hour with a real time we can talk.
For most families, no — a will, durable powers of attorney, and an advance directive take one intake call, one drafting cycle, and one signing meeting. Two to three weeks, start to finish. A trust adds a step. We tell you the realistic timeline at the first call so you can plan around it.
Selectively. We take contested divorce, custody, and business disputes where we believe we can deliver a clearly better outcome than the alternative. Litigation can't be flat-fee priced honestly, so for these matters we scope the engagement in writing, cap the retainer, and update you on burn before every billing cycle.
Call us anyway. The free intake call is exactly for this — fifteen minutes on the phone is usually enough for us to tell you whether you need an estate plan, an LLC, a contract review, or simply a conversation with your accountant first. We'd rather send you to the right professional than sell you the wrong product.
The cheapest legal work is the work you do early. Tell us what's on your mind — we'll tell you whether it's something we handle, what it should cost, and what to do next. No invoice, no pressure.
Our office sits in downtown Augusta — a short walk from the courthouse and a fifteen-minute drive to North Augusta and Aiken County. Meetings by appointment; phone & video consults available statewide in Georgia and South Carolina.
