Having gained professional experiences in diverse backgrounds also provides knowledge that I find is essential in the domestic arena. All divorce attorneys should have a background in financial matters, real estate issues and sadly criminal matters. Often one or all of these issues arise and it is important that you can provide guidance above and beyond what is typical.” Attorney Whitworth is licensed to practice in the State of Georgia, as well as before the Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia.

"I can’t say enough good things about Sean, Michelle and Colby. Not only did they handle my divorce case, but also a custody battle that was brought on me from my ex 3.5yrs after divorce. Sean has a confident approach and will ease you with honesty and realistic expectations from the first call. Michelle is the paralegal and has such a warm personality. She is knowledgeable of the law, timely and fulfilling with her communication. I never felt like I was in the dark or walking through this alone. Colby is a hard hitter and was with me in mediation as well as the court room because we couldn’t settle in mediation. Both in my divorce case and this custody case I got more than I was seeking. Thank you to all three of you for your dedication and communication. I hope this was the last time I’ll be needing this type of legal service. But if it’s not, I know exactly where to go once more."
