I went blindly to Shelley Elder after a neighbor's recommendation, and I was definitely not disappointed. Their services were timely and affordable. Everyone on the staff was friendly and professional. When I visited the office, I felt as though the attention was on ME -- as a person, not a "number". I have since recommended them to others.

Elder Law Firm has been great through the entire process of helping me with my parents estate. I Really appreciate the level of personal service given by Shelly Elder, She was fare and didn't try to draw out the process for additional charges. Thank you Shelley and staff, Jack

Was looking for a family trust. Only needed to go into their office once. Draft was all done via email. Was quick, efficient and everyone was helpful and friendly.
Shelley and her staff are awesome. They will take care of you.

Mrs Elder, who prepared my mothers will, Wouldn't return my calls, I tried for 6 months. She isn't a nice person. Do not be fooled by the bots hired to leave 5 stars.

As a member of Kennesaw Business Association, I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Shelly and her team of professionals. Shelly is a doer, with has a heart for giving and supporting non profit organizations in Cobb County and the Atlanta area. She’s a person who has high integrity and professionalism. You can be sure her law firm will take care of your needs and over deliver. That’s the way she works.

Well I never write reviews but this time I am driven to write this review because of all the help and time Shelley and her staff have put into our situation. First of all from my past experiences, most lawyers are not very compassionate, they are like car salesman and about making money and do not really care about you. Shelley and her awesome staff at Elder Law firm are different. They truly care and want to help people with help them their Legal problems and/or bettering financial situations. I felt overwhelmed and didn't know what to do first, she helped so much and took a lot of that burden off me. I feel like they are my friends now and understand all the trials I am going through to help my father. I wish their were more Shelley's around! She is awesome and so is every person who works there! Their prices are more affordable too! I am not sure what I would have done with out her caring and compassionate personality. She is truly god sent. and I will forever be grateful to her and everyone at Elder Law firm, :) I wish I could give them 10 stars!

I was NOT hired to write a review, not a friend or family, nor an employee. I am a genuine paying client who can without a doubt most highly recommend Elder Law Firm for your estate planning, creating a Trust, a Last Will, and/or other legal documents. Shelley Elder is extraordinary, exceptional, wise and insightful, professionally thorough and top-notch, and she is a remarkable, admirable attorney and woman. Because of my health issues, I need to have my affairs in order--as we all should! I researched numerous local legal firms, interviewed other attorneys, sought advise from numerous people I respect, and attended a workshop on creating a Trust and other related documents. Upon meeting Shelley Elder, and I was promptly impressed by her wonderful demeanor, professionalism, the staff, and her ability to relate to me. She is extremely personable, genuinely pleasant, very accommodating, exudes sincerity, and demonstrated great competence and keen expertise in her field. Despite my fair amount of knowledge and recent research on Trusts and Wills (i.e., workshops, books, articles online, interviews with attorneys and meetings with various legal advisors or council, etc.), Shelley clearly and quickly understood my needs and provided important legal advise that was very helpful, relevant, and insightful. I learned a great deal from her, and she never disappointed! Shelley exhibits notable integrity, compassion, patience, and kindness. Further, her staff was exceptional: ready to help, knowledgeable, very pleasant, accommodating, and professional yet not stuffy or pretentious. All of these important traits led to my decision to entrust Ms. Elder with my numerous critical legal documents.
Ms. Elder is approachable, generous with her time and endless contributions to society, and is a delightful, intelligent, talented individual. She always made me feel comfortable and sincerely valued -- not just as a client, but as a person! I did matter; I do matter! Within a week or so she completed my various documents, spent considerable time reviewing every one with me, and enlightened me on numerous legal statements and inclusions that will prove to be immensely helpful to my Trustee, Executor, and beneficiaries. Not only did she consider my needs, Ms. Elder did not neglect the care of my dogs in the future! Now that speaks volumes!! In closing I want to express my 100% satisfaction with my choice to have Elder Law Firm assist me with my legal documents, and that I recommend her most highly. She has my upmost confidence, support, and admiration. Should you decide to hire Shelley for legal assistance, I firmly believe you, too, will be most impressed and pleased with your decision to hire her expertise. Sincerely, Beth Fitzgerald

My wife, Carolin, was very sick for 10 months and passed away in Jan. 2016. During that period Shelley helped me with some will and power of attorney adjustments. After my dear wife's passing, Shelley's office helped me with getting her will through the probate process. Shelley Elder gives lawyers a good name. She was recommended by friends and I have since recommended her to friends. She is very compassionate and is one of those people Lincoln would have referred to as an "Angel of Our Better Nature". Am sure I will need and use her services again. RS, Stan Jones

We were very thankful when we found Shelley. She handled our legal services in a kind and genuinely caring way in addition to giving us the best service and legal advice that was available. We were guided step-by-step in the legal process and were given encouragement and understanding along the way. We have already recommended her to all our family and friends for any legal assistance that they may have in the future. If you are looking for personal service in today's fast-paced, uncaring 'legal world', Shelley is the person you should choose.

I have just begun my experience with Shelley which was based soley upon a recommendation my trusted financial advisor. Immediately upon meeting Shelley, my mother and I were both put at ease and felt safe putting our legal needs in her care. Shelley was genuinely interested in our needs and goals, greatly informative answering our questions, and gently understanding with concerns and fears. Shelley is both personable and professional. Her wealth of knowledge of our legal needs was only matched by our lack of knowledge in the legal arena! Even so, Shelley had great patience with us when explaining each step. I'm looking forward to working more with Shelley and trusting her with other legal needs.

Shelley was a lifeline at a time where we really needed one. She immediately put us at ease and we are extremely pleased with our experience. She related so well to my whole family including my mom who had Alzheimers. We had been to several other lawyers before and they completely dismissed my mom even though at the time her Alzheimers was minimum. Shelley really listened and took our wishes guiding us to make the best choices. I honestly can not say enough positive things about our experience which was lengthy and at times complicated. Never once did she make us feel like we were a bother when I called or emailed with additional questions. She was patient, knowledgable, smart and easy to work with. We would highly recommend Shelley and the Elder Law Firm!

I have been a client of Shelley for several years. She helped me set up a new business, she updated my Living Trust and she has assisted me with legal advise for the past 5 plus years. She is an attorney that you can trust to always do the right thing. I consider Shelley to not only be my attorney but also a good friend. Tom.

We met Elder Law Firm in January of 2012 and were instantly put at ease. Their knowledge was evident from the beginning and compassion for folks in our situation. The Elder Firm put together the BEST package to present for bankruptcy including items and strategies we had not thought possible. The outcome could not have been more to our satisfaction and the impression of our case being +Job 1." the vibe made us very much at ease and we knew the outcome was just and fair. We are a same sex couple and The Elder Team was not put off. We were treated like any other couple. I hope to never have anyone need to go thru Bankruptcy but if they do - we hope they allow Elder Law to handle the legal parts.

Shelley and her team were excellent in settling our case. Her guidance throughout the process was invaluable to us. She is calm, cool and collected even in the face of some unusual challenges we had with a couple of aggressive creditors. I would highly recommend Shelley to represent you regardless of your circumstances.
