TESTIMONIALS

"Pat and his team were instrumental in drafting legislation to fight human trafficking here in Georgia. Their efforts were tireless and passion undeniable."

"Thank you so much for your excitement around pursuing civil justice. We are so very appreciative of the time, energy, and heart you are pouring into this process and we are honored to serve alongside you and your team."

"I have worked side by side with Pat over the past 3 years in human trafficking. His mission to hold the businesses accountable that profit from trafficking our young is commendable and makes a difference. This specialized team of civil attorneys are clearly top notch, but even more they are trust worthy and have the survivors best interest at heart. I recommend this team to anyone seeking compensation and justice."

"I would recommend it to anybody who has finally found their way out or is simply trying to find a way out and saw a sign somewhere looking for help. I would recommend that they take that step and definitely recommend you guys."

"I have bounced back and forth in and out of the life, but this is the first time I think I will get out and stay out. I know Pat’s team is looking out for me. Anyone in the recovery world will tell you, you can trust Pat’s team. If there is a way to get compensated, they will pursue it tirelessly."

"It wasn't all about the case. I had outside problems going on and they were very supportive and helpful."

"I've been promising my kids a better future for so long, and I can actually give that to them now."

"I felt very comfortable and very safe. I definitely recommend working with them. It has been a life-changing event for me."

"At age 17 I was arrested as a trafficker, when I was really a victim. Pat’s team has taken my case and is preparing a suit against the hotel where I was trafficked. Pat’s team is a life saver."

"Pat is a very good person to work with. At first, I was nervous, but now everything is fine—just a wonderful experience."

"Yes, it is life-changing. It has helped me a lot, and it has changed my life."

"In the beginning, it was very triggering, very scary, and emotional—like an emotional rollercoaster. I got great resources and great counseling."

"I really felt heard and listened to. I really felt like you guys cared."

"I would recommend Pat McDonough and his team. They absolutely went above and beyond for me during this case. They are kind, genuine, and they really have a heart for helping survivors."

"It was absolutely worth it. It was even more worth it because I'm able to get trauma treatment and to work through some of the traumas that I've been dealing with long before I met Pat and his team."

"I think it's important that everybody gets a voice, and that's what we did—we showed everyone has a voice. And I think that was the most important part."

"I was in the life for years. It never occurred to me I would even have a case. Susan Norris suggested I contact Pat. His team is great. They really understand the life. Their team is laser focused on suing hotels and web sites that profited off of people in the life. The team really cares. Everything is 100% confidential. If they file a lawsuit it is filed under Jane Doe. I trust them completely."

"Pat was introduced to me by others deeply committed to helping survivors of sex trafficking. After meeting with Pat and others on his team, I felt confident to introduce them to survivors we serve. While their mission is to go after those in the hospitality industry who have benefited from the trafficking of others, they have also assisted our survivors with court cases and other legal issues they have. It is wonderful to have them as a partner in the fight against sex trafficking."

“Ms. Hundredmark is the definition of prepared. For a DUI Case, she is already one step ahead by having attained her certifications in Standardized Field Sobriety Testing and DUI Detection. If you are facing a DUI, I would highly recommend Ms. Hundredmark.”

“Earlier this year I was charged with a DUI. The situation was stressful as anyone could imagine. A serious charge on my record, jail time, and license suspension was at stake. With Mr. McDonough and his teams experience and expertise throughout the process, I was able to avoid it all. My charge was reduced; I kept my license, did not receive points on my license, and did not serve additional jail time. With his hard work and knowledge, he was able to negotiate with the prosecutor with the odds stacked against me. I would highly recommend him if you are in need of legal assistance.”

“Thank you very much for all your hard work on my behalf. May God bless you and your firm for taking my case pro bono. I could have never had done this without your help.

Also, I wanted to thank you for your kindness to me, your supportive encouragement, and your consistency throughout this whole experience. I will never forget it.”

“My family wants to thank Pat & Trinity so much for all you have done to insure an outcome that resulted in my husband receiving a minimum sentence yesterday. Everyone we have met at ATC over the past two years has been friendly and courteous.”

“I had used Trinity and Pat in the past, and when my ex and I could not agree on a settlement matter, I knew I needed to hire them again. We were unable to get my ex to agree on a settlement, so this matter went in front of the judge. Trinity represented me in court. She was able to wade through a mountain of information I gave her, and narrow the case down to the core issue and argued it beautifully. I won my case handily thanks to her excellent vision and ability to cut to the heard of the matter and not get caught up in “red herring” arguments (What the judge said about the opposing lawyer.). I will definitely hire them again if the need arises.”

“Trinity was a god-send! I thank her for her and Pat’s strategic moves and patience throughout my case along the months. Specifically, Trinity’s attention to detail and analysis of facts cannot be denied. She made sure my 10 counts were reduced to 2 counts with probation for a year and community service. Without her, I could have gone to jail. She’s a very respectable attorney in this field and in this county and many should hire her! Trust me, she wont disappoint.”

“Thank you so much for all that you did for me with my citation. I honestly cannot thank you enough. After seeing what could’ve happened, I don’t plan on getting a ticket ever again!”

“After my daughter found herself in some legal trouble alongside her friends, we hired the legal counsel of Pat & Trinity to represent the entire group. They were extremely prepared and professional – but the most critical and beneficial aspect was how they explained everything to the girls in simple language that they could easily understand. They are extremely nice people and I highly recommend!”

“My husband and I had the opportunity to meet Pat & Trinity several years ago when our youngest son made a bad decision that could have had life long ramifications. Pat & Trinity worked with the case and all who were involved to resolve the matter. They are an amazing team to work and although though I don’t wish to have to use the team ever again, I would recommend Pat & Trinity to anyone who may find themselves in a difficult situation. They are the best at what they do, and I will always be grateful for their amazing knowledge and capabilities”

“Michael Hay has been closing commercial loans for Quantum National Bank for more than 15 years.   During this period, he has provided excellent service and assisted our customers to ensure that loan closings go smoothly.  Also, he has helped us resolve difficult legal matters that have arisen during the closing process. We have enjoyed our long term relationship with this firm and Michael’s team.  I would highly recommend Andersen Tate and Carr for commercial loan closings.”

“I have been working with Scotty for nearly three (3) years now, and what I appreciate most about him is the empathy he shows my clients.  While it is evident that he takes pride in his legal practice, he knows that it is the personal relationship that matters most.”

“I was facing two felony charges as well as three separate charges when I decided to hire Pat & Trinity to represent me in court. During my trial, I was arrested for a separate charge. Despite the complicated situation, Pat & Trinity were able to get every charge dropped, with the exception of one felony, which was lowered to a misdemeanor. After serving 12 months probation, all of my charges will be officially dropped! I am so fortunate to have found a great team who made this process go so smoothly. “

“After finding myself in a very intimidating situation, I reached out to Pat & Trinity for legal help. Due to their relentless attention to detail, every document and record used to support my case was dismissed- an outcome I initially did not think was possible! I am so thankful I chose them to oversee my case. “

“Our son was being charged with violation which could have ultimately landed him in jail for a very long time. After utilizing the legal help of Pat & Trinity, our son was releases very quickly, the case was dismissed, and his record was expunged. We would not have been able to do this without their tenacity and experience. “

“Pat & Trinity are experts in criminal law with outstanding relationships within the criminal justice community in Gwinnett County and the Atlanta area in general.

They have helped my family and friends on many occasions and I have referred people to him numerous times. Pat’s experience as a District Attorney and Prosecutor before becoming a Criminal Defense Attorney is instrumental in helping his clients.”

“Trinity came in and made me feel comfortable because she was so confident and knowledgeable. She had a strong presence and worked with the prosecutor to get me a deal that I didn’t know was possible. I would recommend hiring her because she will be able to navigate the system better than others can.”

“We will be forever grateful for all that Pat and Trinity have done for our boys. We are enthusiastic with the outcome and wish the ATC team very best in all that life offers.”

“Trinity is a very diligent attorney, relentless in her pursuit of justice for her clients. She does not hesitate to associate others to assist when needed. I have personal knowledge of many attorneys in the area, and can say without hesitation I would certainly feel safe and confident with her at my side in any legal situation!”

Anderson Tate and Carr have been our corporate and personal attorneys for close to 20 years. During that time we have come to rely on them for all of our legal needs. We had a case back in the earlier days of our business that could have destroyed our business we didn’t know where to begin or what questions to ask but from day one Jim Joedecke made us feel that everything would be okay. . We are fortunate that the case did go in our favor but we feel that it was only due to the hard work Jim and his team did for months. We completely trust all of the lawyers and staff at Anderson Tate and Car

“Trinity and her whole team were top notch on every level. She was always available to answer any questions that I had. Trinity definitely made this difficult time a lot easier with her professional knowledge on all of the different laws.”

“I cannot recommend Trinity enough. She helped me with a very stressful family situation. Trinity and her team were always timely in responses, very professional, and honest with me during the entire situation. She argued my case brilliantly and got me everything I was asking for. If you are having custody issues, hire Trinity and her team.”

“Trinity represented me through a very difficult time in my life. She was empathetic and provided steady guidance that resulted in the best possible outcome for me. I would not hesitate to recommend her. Trinity is professional, diligent and a very hard working attorney.”

“Trinity is an amazing attorney and handled my case in a professional manner. I was very impressed and extremely satisfied with all the hard work she put in. I highly recommend her.”

“Trinity represented me in court. She was able to wade through a mountain of information I gave her, and narrow the case down to the core issue and argued it beautifully.

“We hired Trinity to help us with a court case involving the Division of Family and Children Services. Obviously a very stressful situation for my entire family. My wife and I did an initial consultation with Trinity and knew immediately that we would hire her. She explored every aspect of our case and provided a clear explanation of our options. After reviewing each option with my wife and I, Trinity developed a concise strategy to move forward. Our decision to hire Trinity was further strengthened as we proceeded through the court process. We could not have done this on our own. Last week the court case was closed with the outcome we wanted. We are grateful for everything that Trinity has done for our family. I would highly recommend Trinity to anyone who finds themselves against the odds. She is the best!”

Michael Hay at Andersen Tate & Carr has been an essential business partner to Credit Union Business Services and to me. In my primary capacities as the loan officer structuring commercial mortgages and in managing our client relationships, it is critical to have legal counsel with thorough knowledge of real estate law and its practical application in mortgage transactions. No transaction is similar in the commercial space and Michael’s experience, common sense, and responsiveness helps to ensure we execute reliably on behalf of the credit unions and our borrowers. After leaving the closing table we have had many clients tell us what we already know, that Michael is an asset.

“Trinity was always up to date on the case and offered helpful strategies, was a very skillful negotiator. Nothing but the highest rating for this person.”

The odds were stacked against my son after refusing a breathalyzer test, which normally results in an automatic one-year license suspension. He also failed all other tests administered to him at the time of his arrest. Despite this, Pat & Trinity were able to dissect the tests and use their expertise to lower the charges to reckless driving with no points, no license suspension, and no probation. He only had to do community service, take a class and pay fines. Needless to say, we were very pleased with the outcome and would use their services again without hesitation.

“xxxx and I just want to thank you both so much for all you have done to insure an outcome that resulted in xxxx receiving a minimum sentence yesterday. We pray God bless you, that you would receive His favor this day and all days, that you live in health and prosperity. Everyone we have met at ATC over the past two years has been friendly and courteous.”

“Even with cases handled outside of the courtroom, Patrick McDonough and Trinity Hundredmark build their cases as if each was going to trial. With their dedication, perseverance and expertise, I would confidently recommend the ATC legal team to anyone facing criminal charges.”

“I went through a very traumatic domestic situation- resulting in a highly complicated case involving my children. After meeting with Pat & Trinity, I was immediately put at ease. They knew how to speak with my children and made them feel comfortable, which was important to me. Pat & Trinity are extremely experienced and represented me skillfully in the courtroom. Due to the unique circumstances of my case I have had the need to hire Pat & Trinity on two separate occasions, having great success both times and have been extremely satisfied both times. Due their dedication to their clients and their needs, it’s nice to know they are just a phone call away.”

“I went through a very traumatic domestic situation and then was surprised to be faced with a highly complicated case involving my children. I knew what I was up against and knew I needed someone good. I met with Trinity and was immediately put at ease. In an extremely difficult and unusual position she knew how to speak with my children and make them feel comfortable, which was of the utmost importance to me. I realized right away I was in good hands so I hired her on the spot. She knows her stuff and is highly effective both in dealing with me and in the courtroom. She doesn’t back down, will not be bullied and will fight for you and what is right. Due to the unique circumstances of my case I have had the need to hire Trinity on two separate occasions and have been extremely satisfied both times. What I appreciate most about Trinity is her accessablity. She answers all my questions and concerns in a very timely and thorough manner. She is always just an email or a phone call away. No one wants to need a lawyer but if you do Trinity is the one. I fully trust her and her knowledge of the law.”

“I was looking for the best family practice attorney in Gwinnett to help some good friends with a family situation. And, everyone I spoke with seemed to think Trinity was the best. So, we engaged her. And, of course, she listened to my friends and fully understood their problem then she competently and professionally did a GREAT job to resolve their issues! From my experience, Trinity really is the best!!”

“As a fellow attorney, I understand all too well that cheap attorneys are cheap for a reason. My divorce was highly contested and drug on for 2 years, and I obtained the best possible result because of Trinity Hundredmark and Andersen, Tate & Carr, P.C. Perhaps nothing is more important than your finances and how much time you get to spend with your children, and there is no better way to protect those things than by hiring an aggressive attorney like Trinity.”

“I engaged Trinity’s legal expertise on two separate occasions to provide assistance to two of my adult children. Trinity’s caring and knowledgeable approach resulted in unique and successful outcomes in both cases. I was impressed by Trinity’s compassion, her ability to listen carefully, and her determination to pursue a legal outcome customized to the needs of her clients. I highly recommend Trinity to anyone with family-related legal challenges.”

“Thank you so much! I heard my daughter laugh for the first time in ages!”

“Trinity represented my son in a traffic and minor-in-possession (MIP) charge recently. She was well-prepared, knowledgeable, and listened carefully to our concerns as she counseled us. She provided us excellent representation and negotiated the best possible plea and probation deal given our circumstances. We felt that she truly cared about us as clients and worked hard to arrive at the best outcome. I would recommend her without reservation.”

“Pat & Trinity represented my son recently, and they were nothing short of well-prepared knowledgeable, while at the same time receptive and compassionate to our. We were provided excellent representation, as Pat and Trinity negotiated the best possible plea and probation deal given our circumstances. We felt that they truly cared about us as clients and worked hard to arrive at the best outcome. I would recommend them without reservation.”

“I worked with Trinity on my personal family matter. This type of case is never easy and highly sensitive. She assured me from the very beginning that we would get through this and meet the end result that I needed. She was very responsive, thorough and professional. Since completing my case, I have recommended Trinity and her firm to numerous friends and colleagues. I have great trust in her abilities.”

“Scotty has always exceeded our expectations, whether it is problem solving an eleventh hour issue for an upcoming closing or figuring out how to paper up a hard deal, he is always one step ahead and makes everything flow seamlessly.  I have worked with him for several years and couldn’t image not having him on ‘our team’!”

“Pat & Trinity are excellent attorneys who does what it takes to get the job done. Their combined diligence and hard work provided the best outcome for my situation. I especially appreciate their candor throughout the process. Updates and options were more frequently than expected. I can honestly say my relationship with Pat & Trinity has impacted my family in a very positive manner, both financially and in other ways.”

“I was facing prison for something I did not do. However, the political climate was stacked up against me and a trial was risky. Pat & Trinity were able to get me a no contest plea & fine and it was over.”

“I would really like to thank you for taking my case & working on my case. I couldn’t have asked for better attorneys! I would not have wanted different attorneys. Thank you. My gratitude is more than I can say. I appreciate the energy and the time that you put into this. I wouldn’t change anything. I feel you are pretty much my family. You’re not just my attorneys & I won’t forget about you when this is over. No, I won’t. Why?! Because you helped me. You worked for me. You did more than you had to do. The first time I met you in those 45 minutes (give or take) you told me more than the attorney I had, previously, for 3 years. So, thank you.”

“When my family found itself in need of legal representation to handle an eminent domain case affecting long held family property, I engaged Mr. Tate to ensure the estate’s interests were protected. Mr. Tate immediately engaged, was thorough in his analysis, honest and informed legal guidance, and follow-through. At every step, Mr. Tate fought hard to defend my family’s interests and in the end, successfully negotiated the best possible outcome for our case saving us the headache, risk, and incremental expense we would have incurred taking the case to trial. As someone who has engaged ATC for all of my legal needs over the last few years, I can’t say enough good things about the firm, its partners and staff, and the superb legal representation you will receive when you engage Tom and his partners for legal representation.”

“We enjoyed our visit with Jim last Thursday when we went to pick up the check. Our heartfelt thanks go out to Jim for an incredible and difficult negotiation on our behalf. The final outcome has overwhelmed us, an award of all attorney’s fees and legal expenses. It has been to us, an answer to prayer. We are firm believers that things don’t happen by chance and that God is in control.

We thank you for meeting the challenges posed in this case, and bringing this matter to a just resolution. Your patience and professionalism were impressive, but your sincere caring and concern was what really set you apart from most attorneys.

Jim, you are a gifted attorney. With equal parts grit and finesse, you maneuvered through the complexity of tax appeal litigation, advocating hard against the opposition while at the same time protecting client interests—a warrior and friend by your side.

Thank you for so expertly representing us. You have been right on target with responses to opposing counsel throughout and we are so appreciative for all your hard work and efforts on our behalf. At the trial, you gave an accurate depiction of our property over assessment along with well-chosen examples contrasting the expert’s comps but there’s no doubt in our minds that what convinced the jury was the genuine conviction expressed in your voice. In other words, not only are words and facts used in a trial important but also the speaker’s tone and manner of delivery.

We can’t thank everyone enough for a job well done to you, Brittany, and your fine team members including receptionists and paralegals who put us at ease in this difficult process with their kindness, courtesy, and helpfulness. We wish you all the best and continued success in your practice.”

“I am thrilled to have had the opportunity to work with Trinity and the team at Andersen, Tate & Carr. They are a very professional, pleasant and hard-working group of folks. I was arrested for some pretty serious marijuana charges, but am now finally seeing some light at the end of the tunnel. I strongly recommend Trinity and her team to anyone who might want to avoid going to trial. I am happy that I chose Andersen, Tate & Carr to represent me and help me through this difficult time of my life.”

“Trinity joins her deep legal expertise with a focus on her client’s best interest. This combination serves her clients exceptionally well.”

“Tom did a great job for our church but more importantly is a wonderful person and his compassion and desire to have empathy with our situation was obvious to everyone who worked with Tom.”

“Thank you for all the time and help you put into my case’s success! Your work speaks for itself and you are now my go-to attorney, should I ever need one in the future!”

“I was more than satisfied how Trinity handled my Divorce. We had some difficult, to say the least, people to deal with. I always like to try & be one step ahead during situations such as this. We were always 5 steps ahead throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Trinity to anybody going through a similar situation. I also want to give a shout out to Becca, her paralegal. I worked with her on a couple of separate things over the last couple of years & she is phenomenal!”

“Kathleen does a terrific job for us and we are pleased to have her as an integral part of our legal team.

We are primarily a Software-as-a-Service company, but we also have significant Professional Services and Consulting businesses as well. The legal structures surrounding Software-as-a-Service offerings are still in flux, and, even though we are typically dealing with large Fortune 1000 companies, we find that our customers’ legal teams often struggle with Software-as-a-Service concepts, trying to fit them in a “packaged” software mold. We are continuously having to negotiate and resolve complex issues of liability, warranty, indemnification, and IP ownership. Kathleen brings extensive expertise on these topics and is a skilled front-line negotiator. We rely on her heavily in our biggest, most important deal negotiations.

Kathleen has also done a great job understanding our specific businesses and the nuances of our various positions. She is a trusted advisor on all of our general legal issues. And, she is extremely responsive. She will work with us in responding to tight negotiation deadlines and never lets us down.

We are very fortunate to have her as a member of our team. “

“After being pulled over for speeding, I was arrested for 2 misdemeanors and found myself facing three charges in court. Unoptimistic about my fate, I hired Pat & Trinity as a last hope. The team was very polite, informative, and respectful- always no more than an email/phone call away. Their consultation was very reassuring; after going to court, I was able to enter the Pre-Trial Diversion program even after completing it in my previous case. I already completed most of the requirements needed for probation, and due to Pat & Trinity’s insight and recommendations all that was required was 12 months of probation and a few seminars. I highly recommend using their unparalleled expertise!”

“Pat & Trinity did an amazing job of very quickly getting in touch with the right people in the prosecutor’s office to work out the best possible regarding my citation. Thanks to their help, I was able to avoid getting any points on my driving record, or having to report it to my insurance company.”

“Facing a politically motivated GBI investigation, 18 count indictment, and trial was one of the most stressful and difficult times in my life. I want to thank Pat & Trinity for their work ethic, attention to detail, legal argument and faith in me. Hearing the words not guilty gave me back my faith in the system.”

“If you are reading this review, there is a good chance you are in need of legal representation! I was recommended to Mrs. Hundredmark by a family friend, after finding myself in a burdening predicament. I was involved in a DUI case, and the outcome was looking rather grim. After my initial meeting with Mrs. Hundredmark and her law partner I felt a lot better about the situation. Of course there were no promises or guarantees made, but the confidence and integrity they both exuded assured me that I was in the right place. Everything about the case moved rather quickly, but the outcome cold not have been more uplifting. Their legal experience really shined thru, and at the end of the day I walked out of the courtroom completely relieved. I would definitely recommend the services of this law firm to any family, friend, or stranger on the street.”

“I didn’t realize how stressed I would be waiting for the outcome of our hearing. Finally, I was able to rest peacefully. I feel free. Thank you for your kindness, supportive encouragement and consistency throughout this entire experience. I will never forget it!”

“I have known Mr Tate for more than twenty years both as a friend and as legal counsel for my small business. He has helped me successfully navigate through many difficult legal obstacles and challenges as i have grown my company into a leader in its industry. He has consistently provided me with sound, sage and unbiased advice while always being extremely reasonable with fees and filings. Most importantly, he is an honest, moral and compassionate adviser/counselor who is unwaveringly zealous in his defense of his client’s best interests. I trust and recommend him without reservation in all legal business matters.”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Trinity for the past 2 years in the area of Domestic Relations. I have found her to be very professional and well respected by her clients, which primarily consist of high profile, high-asset clients who obviously put their faith in her abilities as I do. She is joy to know and work with.”

“The first lawyer I met with said my case was worth $3,000 – $6,000. I met with Tyler next, and he eventually recovered $100,000 for my case. Tyler did an outstanding job.”

“Tyler represented our lending and factoring company in a litigation matter adverse to a national surety company, local county government, and construction company. The areas of law at issue were complex, and the stakes for our business were high. Tyler provided us with thorough research and honest guidance on the potential problems we faced as well as thoughtful arguments on how we may overcome those. Ultimately, Tyler represented us at a mediation and helped us negotiate a settlement that secured our recovery of a substantial amount of money. We appreciated Tyler’s representation.”

“Tyler represented my Mom after she was injured at a major retail store. Tyler worked hard to get security camera footage and key documents that showed the store’s negligence. The store then paid up, and we were very happy with the amount of money my Mom received.”

“After I left my former employer, I was frivolously sued. My old company claimed that I had breached my employment agreement, violated computer protection laws, and stolen business.  All of it was untrue. Tyler represented me in defending against this. He requested that the Court dismiss all of the false claims and he sought to hold the other side accountable for their wrongful accusations. Tyler’s assertive approach proved to end the case before it ever really began. Before long, the other side agreed to completely drop their case against me. I was thankful Tyler helped me move on quickly.”

“My business was sued by a large franchisor and local franchisee. They were demanding more than $200,000 in damages and claiming that I had breached contracts, infringed on intellectual property, and owed them unpaid fees. I turned to Tyler after I was not satisfied with my first lawyer. Tyler represented me aggressively by amending my previous Answer and asserting new counterclaims. He then deposed the plaintiffs’ corporate officers and uncovered major problems with their claims. Afterwards, Tyler negotiated a settlement that was approximately 2% of what the Plaintiffs were originally requesting. Tyler listened to my concerns and worked hard on my case.”

“Tyler represented my husband and me at trial against a landscape and construction company that had done very faulty work in our backyard.  The defendants and their lawyer refused to admit they had done anything wrong and would not negotiate with us.  Tyler obtained a verdict against them and then collected all the money they owed us plus interests.  I recommend Tyler’s work.”

“After my employer wrongfully terminated me, Tyler brought FMLA and FLSA claims on my behalf.  Over the next three years, Tyler argued on multiple occasions in Federal Court, and after obtaining a favorable ruling from the Court, we were able to recover $105,000 for my claims.  I appreciated Tyler’s willingness to fight for me and my case.”

“Tyler represented me after I was injured in a car wreck. Although there wasn’t much damage to my vehicle, my shoulder was hurt and required surgery. I was happy that Tyler recovered a six-figure sum for me.”

“Tyler represented me in a multi-year legal battle against other family members in a company shareholder dispute. Eventually, Tyler helped negotiate a successful split of the company and the other shareholders dropped all of their claims. I was happy with Tyler’s representation and persistence in a difficult case.”

“Tyler represented my parents at trial after their neighbor trespassed and cut down their trees. Tyler received a verdict that included treble damages and punitive damages against the neighbor. Tyler exceeded our expectations with his professionalism and knowledge of the law.”

“Tom did a great job for our church but more importantly is a wonderful person and his compassion and desire to have empathy with our situation was obvious to everyone who worked with Tom.”

Our company was owed a substantial amount of money from a property owner who chose not to fully pay the subcontractors that built his project.  There were many subcontractors that were owed on the project along with Shumate.  Through vigorous pursuit of several avenues toward the property owner, the bank that had financed the project, and the Title Insurance company insuring the closing attorney of the construction loan,  Don helped us obtain a six figure settlement.  I believe our company was one of the few that were paid anything near what they were owed, and I attribute that success entirely to Don.
