Dedicated Divorce Attorneys Serving Atlanta
While each divorce is unique, the core issues to resolve typically include child custody and visitation, child support, property division, debt allocation, and alimony. With nearly half a century of combined experience, we’ve encountered a wide spectrum of scenarios, including:
Contested Divorce
These cases tend to be more protracted, often necessitating litigation to settle contentious matters. The process encompasses serving formal divorce documents, engaging in information discovery, possibly involving experts, negotiating settlements, and, if needed, proceeding to trial.
Uncontested Divorce
In instances where both parties agree on all aspects from the outset, we offer our recommendations, prepare the requisite legal documentation for filing, finalize the agreement, submit the necessary paperwork to the Clerk of Court, and facilitate the divorce’s legal conclusion. Even in uncontested divorces, complexities may arise, and our experienced divorce lawyers provide invaluable guidance.
High-Asset Divorce
Managing assets and dividing property and debts can be exceptionally intricate for individuals with substantial wealth. Our attorneys possess the experience and resources necessary to represent clients in high-asset divorce cases, ensuring the best possible representation.

What’s in the best interest of your children? What sets apart physical and legal custody? How can you determine the most suitable parenting time schedule for you and your child(ren)? What standards and factors does the court weigh when considering custody modifications?

Personalized Consultations With Our Atlanta Visitation Lawyers
We genuinely care about the impact our services have on our clients and their families. That’s why we invest ample time in conversations with our clients to grasp their desires and devise solutions tailored to their circumstances.
Custody typically falls into two categories: physical and legal. The terminology, such as sole and joint custody, legal and physical custody, can be bewildering. We clarify your options in plain terms to help you comprehend and assess the strength of your case, whether it involves custody, parenting time, or visitation. Keep in mind that custody determinations can impact child support, and we provide valuable insights into what to anticipate.
If your situation or your children’s needs have changed since a final order was established, it’s advisable to consult with us about the potential for modification. The court will assess whether there’s been a substantial material change in circumstances warranting a custody and visitation modification and whether such changes are ultimately in the children’s best interests.
Atlanta Child Support and Modification Attorneys
Child custody and visitation disputes often intertwine with financial concerns, including fears of overpaying or not receiving enough child support. At Gross & Miller Attorneys at Law, we prioritize the best interests of the children in all family law matters, serving clients throughout the Atlanta metropolitan area.
Our skilled lawyers assist you in navigating child support calculations, which may appear straightforward at first but can involve complexities such as deviations and adjustments on the Child Support Worksheet. We collaborate closely with you to ensure that your child’s needs, any necessary deviations, and adjustments are carefully considered to accurately determine the final child support amount.
Our services cover a range of common child support issues, including:
- Determining child support payments
- Duration of child support obligations
- Completing the child support worksheet
- Permissible adjustments
- Factoring in work-related daycare expenses
- Adjustments for medical insurance premiums
- Handling additional child-related expenses
- Enforcing child support orders
- Addressing child support arrears to avoid legal repercussions
With nearly 50 years of combined experience, our legal team meticulously examines all aspects of your situation, both current and future.
Child Support Deviations
One key area we specialize in is requesting Schedule E deviations, allowing the court to deviate from the standard monthly child support amount. Deviations are discretionary, and our attorneys will work with you to assess the unique circumstances of your case and accurately complete Schedule E on the Child Support Worksheet to request appropriate deviations from the court.
Grandparents' Rights
Gross & Miller Attorneys at Law, a Georgia-based family law firm, serves clients across the Atlanta metropolitan area. We advocate for grandparents, family members, and other third parties in their pursuit to maintain meaningful relationships with the children who hold significance in their lives.
Supporting and Nurturing the Children in Your Life Modern families are diverse, and as such, courts have evolved to accommodate the changing dynamics of family structures. These legal settings offer non-biological parents the opportunity to legally form families founded on the best interests of the children involved. This can include grandparents, other family members, or friends stepping into the role of parents to provide the utmost care for the children.
Our legal team is well-versed and experienced in handling the delicate matters surrounding grandparent rights and related issues. We can assist with various case types, such as:
- Custody (permanent, temporary, or third party)
- Visitation
- Guardianship
Cases involving grandparent rights or third-party custody and visitation differ from disputes between biological parents. Securing visitation rights or contacting the children may prove challenging if the parents object. We are here to clarify your rights and present clear information about your legal alternatives. Our approach prioritizes understanding the needs of all parties involved, followed by pursuing resolutions that advance your objectives while safeguarding the well-being of the children.
Additionally, our lawyers have experience in cases where one or both parents are deemed unfit due to factors like substance abuse, child neglect, abuse, molestation, or other circumstances. In such situations, grandparents or other caregivers often become the best-equipped individuals to meet the children’s needs and provide emotional and financial support in their best interests. In custody disputes, the paramount consideration is the best interest of the child. Some clients have already played a substantial role in raising the children and aspire to maintain a close bond through visitation or custody. We are ready to assist you in pursuing temporary or permanent custody or visitation if your family is affected by any of these circumstances.
We comprehend the significance of family and your determination to prioritize the well-being of the children dear to you. Regardless of the specifics of your case, our grandparents’ rights attorneys in metro Atlanta are committed to helping build a healthy and thriving family that includes you. We will collaborate closely with you to discern your needs and aspirations and guide you towards a resolution that preserves the children’s best interests.
