Family Law

When a legal problem involves your family, it affects every part of your life: your home, your finances, and your time with your children. The family law attorneys at Lankford & Moore Law help clients in Barrow, Gwinnett, Hall, and Jackson Counties work through divorce, custody, child support, legitimation, and other family matters with clear guidance at every step. We’ll explain where you stand, what your options are, and what to realistically expect, so you can make decisions with confidence instead of fear.

How We Can Help
We handle a wide range of family law matters, including uncontested and contested divorce, child custody and parenting plans, child support, legitimation, alimony, modifications of existing custody or support orders, and contempt actions when the other party isn’t following a court order. If you’re not sure what kind of case you have, that’s fine. Part of your consultation is figuring that out together.

Guidance First, Court When Necessary
Most family law cases are best resolved by agreement, which is usually faster, less expensive, and easier on everyone involved, especially children. We look for reasonable resolutions whenever possible. When the other side won’t be reasonable, Attorney Sherry Lankford handles the courtroom work, and she appears regularly in all four county courts we serve.

Working With a Virtual Firm
Your first conversation will usually be with Attorney Tyler Moore, by phone or by Zoom if you prefer. If you’d feel more comfortable speaking with Sherry, just ask. Once you decide to move forward, you can review and sign your agreement electronically and pay online. There’s no office to visit, no waiting room, and no need to take half a day off work.

Why Local Experience Matters
Georgia family law is state-specific, and each county’s courts have their own procedures, scheduling practices, and local rules. Online information is often outdated, written for another state, or missing the details that matter in your case. Working with attorneys who regularly appear in your county’s courts helps your case move efficiently and avoid unnecessary delays.

The only secret that the lawyer really possesses about the law is that no one can ever be certain of what the law is…. The lawyer is accustomed to the ways of bending and changing rules to suit his (or his client’s) purposes, to dance in the shadows of the law’s ambiguities. Rules hold no particular terror for the lawyer, just as the sight of blood holds no terror for the surgeon.
