Law Firm Overview Free Consultation

Paulk Legal P.C. is dedicated law firm in Atlanta, Georgia. Our founding partner Alan Paulk brings his judgment and experience in evaluating every client’s situation. The objective is to solve your problem the most cost effective way, the same way we would solve it if you were an old friend or family member. Our focus is on maximizing value, not maximizing billable hours.

Our firm takes a holistic approach to providing legal services. Every case must be constantly evaluated to suit the needs of the client’s life. The application of skill without a corresponding amount of care will waste a client’s resources and bring them no closer to their objective. Getting good lawyers is not enough, you need good people.

Alan G. Paulk Jr. graduated from Emory Law School in Atlanta, Georgia. He has studied at Oxford University, England, worked on Capitol Hill, and toiled in the fields of the South Georgia farm where he was born. He has practiced as a criminal prosecutor, worked in medical malpractice and product liability cases, and has more recently developed a truly general practice law office drawing on his diverse life experiences in the construction industry, in computer technology, and in collaborative law dispute resolution. He is a member in good standing with the Georgia Bar and with the Georgia Court of Appeals.

Practice Areas Description

Our practice includes:

- Family Law

Family law is never about the individual. All members must be considered for the greater good. Alan’s philosophy is to encourage vigorous forthcoming negotiation up front to assess if court will be necessary. Alan is trained in collaborative law, a special process designed to avoid conflict and emotional stress. For the few cases that can’t be resolved without litigation, Alan prepares to defend his client’s rights with every remedy the law provides. Family law cases involve:

* Legitimation

When marriage is not an option, legitimation is the only way a father can establish legal rights to his child in Georgia.

* Custody

When parents separate, a custody decision must be made. Granting sole, joint, legal, or physical custody is based on the best interest of the child.

* Paternity

Paternity identifies the father and gives the mother, father, and child legal rights to support, custody and visitation.

* Child Support

A marital relationship can end, but the financial responsibility a parent has for his or her child continues.

* Divorce

Through the process of divorce Paulk Legal works to maintain dignity and respect between both parties.

* Alimony

After a divorce, alimony helps the lesser-earning spouse support themselves until they can become financially independent.
