Beverly Bates - Atlanta Government Agencies Lawyer Reviews & Ratings

A favorite question asked by federal employees on an initial phone call, "Mr. Bates, Have you dealt with CDC [or some other federal agency] before?"  Answer is generally "Yes", based on my experience and Atlanta being nearly always the regional office for federal agencies. Beginning private practice in Atlanta in 1974, I represent federal employees and have had success in many cases.  I was listed in the first and later editions of Marquis' Who's Who in American Law first published in 1977-78.  Since 1981 I've received the "AV" rating by selection of attorneys, which is the highest rating issued by Martindale-Hubbell® Law Dictionary.. If you have a concern that needs legal attention, whether it is EEO, failure to obtain reasonable accommodation, retaliation for seeking an accommodation, assistance on a formal complaint, mediation, upcoming hearing or appeal, or dealing within hostile working environment, you may call me at for an introductory no charge telephone discussion of your concern.  Responding to calls is not delegated to non-professionals but handled directly by me.  My office is located in Buckhead, within Atlanta city limits, in a 2 story building with convenient no charge front door parking.
