Hired Attorney

When my husband said he wanted a divorce, I had been a stay at home mom with my three children for 11 years, and I was completely blindsided. I was scared, and didn't know how me or my children were going to survive. I hired Andee Hastings for my divorce and then again after it was final because my ex refused to abide by the terms of our agreement. She came very highly recommended, and she lived up to to that recommendation. She obtained an amazing results for me and my children in BOTH cases.

I found Andee after doing a lot of research for family law attorneys. From the beginning, Andee immediately understood things about my situation that I didn't even yet understand. She is intuitive, strategic, understanding, and highly attentive. I always knew that she cared for me and my children. She is very kind, truly knowledgable in the field of family law. I highly recommend her as a family law attorney.

Ms. Hastings is incredibly knowledgeable in Georgia family law. She always goes above and beyond in answering questions. Her compassion is extremely appreciated in this difficult area of the law. She has always given me excellent advice and direction. She doesn't sugarcoat things or tell me what I want to hear, but rather tells me what she believes based on the actual law. I would highly recommend her to anyone that needs family law assistance in Georgia.

Andee represented me in my divorce. She and her team worked very well on my case. The cards were stacked against me financially and with regards to custody, but I ended up with a fair and equitable settlement thanks to Andee's knowledge and those of her staff. She was very cost efficient as well. She was thoughtful, professional, and had a deep understanding of the law. I have spoke with other who wish they could have divorced with a result like the one I received. I strongly recommend Andee.

Ms. Hastings is the consummate professional. She is extremely knowledgeable and professional, yet makes you feel at ease immediately. She is very responsive and made me feel confident in her expertise. She is trustworthy and told me what she believed was best for the situation - not simply what I wanted to hear. That was so refreshing! I would highly recommend her to anyone needing help in any area of family law. She has integrity that is rare in this field.

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions
