Meet the Family Matters Law Group Team
THE MORE YOU KNOW OF OUR HISTORY, THE MORE CONFIDENT YOU ARE IN US
Our History
Founder and Owner Edidiong Essienumoh Aaron opened Family Matters Law Group, P.C. (“FMLG”) in 2012 with the intention of laying a foundation such that the firm would become synonymous with expertise and excellence. This intention is carried out by consistently fighting for people whose children, assets, and money are under attack. The entire FMLG team is dedicated to the desires of our clients, while simultaneously managing client expectations alongside the realities of the laws that govern family law. Our performance is carried out through the detail-specific attention that is given to every case and our insatiable drive to compete and perform in and out of court.
ATTRIBUTES
What Makes Us Different
RESPONSIVE
When you invest a considerable amount of your trust and money into hiring a law firm, you should expect that your firm and its staff will be responsive to your questions and concerns. At Family Matters Law Group, we integrate systematic procedures and the latest in technology to ensure that we are available when you call
or message, and that we are keeping you up-to-date on all relevant happenings in your case.
BEAST MODE
The saying is “if you’re going to be a monkey, then be a Gorilla.” The attorneys working for the firm you hire should always be equipped to enter into the courtroom with an eye towards victory. Our clients have often described our performance in court as “beast mode” or “beast like” because of the fierce, no
nonsense, and resilient efforts we embody in the courtroom. If you need a firm that will Fight to Protect Your Children, Assets and Money when they are Under Attack, you need Family Matters Law Group.
INSIGHT
When you hire a family law firm, you want that firm and its attorneys to have a high level of insight about the courts and the judges that your case will be in front of. If the firm you retained doesn’t know how a particular courthouse sets cases for final hearings or how a particular Judge feels about joint physical custody then you didn’t hire the right firm. Family Matte
didn’t hire the right firm. Family Matters Law Group has spent a considerable amount of time in the courtroom (we don not shy away from litigation) and in the courthouse. We believe its important to develop meaningful relationships with courthouse staff because after all, it is the staff that assist in moving your case to finality. We have positioned ourselves to litigate before a host of judges, in several metro Atlanta counties, about various family law issues; through this, we have gained an incredible amount of insight into the views, opinions, and rulings of these judges.
APPROACH
How We Do It
Before determining an approach to a specific legal matter, Family Matters Law Group wants to know where you see your case going and what you expect to accomplish as a result.
YOUR DESIRES. Some law firms and attorneys will immediately begin spewing out what they can do for you without first knowing if that is what you truly want them to do. When you are clear about what you wish to accomplish, that’s where we begin our approach.
MAKING YOU MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE. We don’t just pride ourselves on being knowledgeable about family law, we also pride ourselves on the way we educate our clients on family laws. We take the time to show you actual statutes and case law that relate to your case and discuss how your facts fit or do not fit. Your knowledge of the law will help guide you in the decisions that you make and the outcomes you desire.
MANAGING EXPECTATIONS. Unfortunately, there are so many other law firms that will tell you what you want to hear just to get you in the door, even though they are aware that the laws do not support what you may be seeking. We do not accept every case because we understand that hiring a firm to represent you requires a mutual connection between the firm and the client. Along with this connection comes the courage of that firm to properly manage the client’s expectations alongside the realities of the laws governing family. Put another way, our firm absolutely will not improperly lead you to believe what we know is not true simply to make you feel good or retain our services.
