| Description | Recipient of Georgia Trend’s 2005, 2007, 2009, 2010 Legal Elite Award Founder Mary Stearns-Montgomery has been a practicing family law as a divorce attorney for more than twenty years. After starting her career at a general practice law firm, Mary decided to pursue her entrepreneurial dream of building her own practice. Her initial success compelled her to expanded her Georgia law practice into a team of talented divorce attorneys, family law attorneys, and child support attorneys – all of whom demonstrate incredible success in Georgia divorce and family practice cases. Mary manages a capable team of Atlanta lawyers, and, although her team is larger than ever, she still remains involved in every single family law case her practice sees. In a managerial capacity, Mary’s oversight provides clients with creative solutions and unprecedented attorney access. Clients find her to be assertive and determined as she vigorously fights for their rights and goals in the court room, but she remains compassionate and practical in dealing directly with clients. In fact, many of Mary’s referrals are from ‘the other side of the table,’ where those individuals have developed a respect for Mary’s tenacity and integrity. Mary enjoys mentoring other family law and divorce attorneys, both within her firm and in both the Atlanta and Marietta communities. She is actively involved in the community as a volunteer for organizations like 100 Women Against Domestic Violence, the Cobb Justice Foundation, and the American Cancer Society. Mary is one of the Chairpersons for the ACS Silent Auction Committee- an organization that raises thousands of dollars each year by auctioning off everything from Michael Vick helmets to East Hampton vacation homes. When not fighting for clients or causes, Mary fights for the lead in her favorite sport: motocross.
