"Becoming a client of Meriwether and Tharp has been a great blessing! Life doesn't always take you on the road well-traveled and I recently found myself traveling in unfamiliar territory; single and pregnant. I became a client of Charlotte Ruble during my pregnancy so that we could begin a child support order for my newborn as soon as possible. Although she was unable to begin proceedings until my daughter was born, Charlotte and her team often checked in to see how my pregnancy was going. Her calm and empathetic mannerism coupled with some humor, made it easy to develop a positive attorney-client relationship. Charlotte worked closely with Lauren Zaki and Andrea Palmer, who worked diligently on my case and always communicated with me clearly and quickly. These women always treated my case with fidelity; updating me on a consistent basis. Their communication was so thorough that I received answers to questions before I was able to ask them and they were always available to listen if I had worries and concerns. Even though these women had many other cases, they made me feel like I was of the upmost importance to them which took many stresses away and allowed me to focus on my personal life. My daughter was born on August 29th and Charlotte filed for a court date just two days later. I still cannot get over how prompt and quick this whole process was! The short time that it took to have my case completed and finalized from the time it began still shocks me and it's all due to Charlotte's precision and attention to detail. I am grateful for her services and recommend Charlotte without any reservation. Thank you to Charlotte, Lauren, and Andrea for your positive impact and dedication to my case!"

My divorce was in New Jersey, and my child custody case was in Georgia. It was a very complicated & difficult legal battle. From day 1 till my case was over, she was always available. She is a very honest and hard working attorney, Also she is extremely intelligent. She advised me on all the right things to do in my case. She worked with me diligently in collecting all the required evidence to bring justice to my case. She fought really hard for me. I had a positive outcome on my case, however even if it had gone the other way, I still could not have asked more than what she did for my case. She is very knowledgeable in all the legal aspects. I cannot thank enough for the help she did to me and my family. Also, I should mention that, she has a solid team (Lauren and Andrea). They are always accessible and they provide all the support needed on a timely basis to address key issues. My advice to anyone who is looking for an attorney in Georgia,..please stop looking and hire Charlotte right away. This will be the best decision you are doing for your case. So, please don't wait. Trust me, she is THE BEST attorney who can represent you."
