I co-founded Meriwether & Tharp, LLC with Robert “Bob” Tharp in 1998. In the beginning, the firm was just two young lawyers who thought that they could make a difference by teaming up together. At present, we are the largest family law firm in the state of Georgia. The firm has over 40 lawyers dedicated to helping clients get through difficult times.. In 2009, we surveyed the family law landscape and decided to make a change. We began to develop a vision of a better way to practice family law. As our vision became a reality, the firm grew.. As the practice grew, our team honed our courtroom skills to zealously advocate for our clients. But, more importantly, we learned that lawyers should work to resolve most family law cases. In some respects, working to resolve cases is much more challenging than litigating the cases. It requires digging in to find out where the problems are and looking for solutions. Often solutions are found outside of the confines of the legal system.. In addition to working to resolve the case, we also help our clients perform a three step cost-benefit analysis of their situation to help them make wise decisions. First, we help the client understand the legal strengths and weaknesses of a their case. Next, we discuss with the client the financial repercussions and costs of pursuing a specific litigation plan. And finally, we explore the long term 'emotional' price of any particular plan. The emotional price can include the value of ending a case earlier so that the client can move on with their life. The emotional price can also include the toll protracted litigation can have on children.. We are here to help. Sometimes that help involves giving the clients certain tools to save their marriage and never hire us. We love it when that opportunity comes along.. When I am not helping someone with their divorce, or trying to save their marriage, you will find me with my wife and kids or in my woodworking shop.  On a personal level, I hold a Black Belt in Judo and was the State Champion in my division while in law school.  I was active in my sons’ Cub Scouts and Boy Scout activities.  I was also the den leader for both my sons and ran the Pack’s Cub Mobile Race (with 99 scouts) for five years in a row.  I have built my children’s bedroom furniture; our kitchen table; end tables; an entire suite of furniture on our back porch including a swing bed; and even my office desk out of Ambrosia Maple.  In my spare time, I also enjow using my woodworking skills to craft individualized and unique pens. Click here to see a link to my pen selection!  If that weren’t enough, I also have a podcast called The Avid Woodworker ().

Practice Areas: Adoption

I graduated from UGA Law School in 2014, and just launched my own solo practice! I handle all sorts of family law cases including divorce, custody and/or child support modifications, contempt, legitimation, adoption, and name change. I work exclusively on a flat fee basis, no hourly charges on your invoices! I do also offer sliding scale, "low bono" as well as a few pro bono cases at a time. I strongly believe that access to an attorney should be a right to all, not a privilege reserved for the wealthy. And the legal practice has gotten prohibitively expensive in recent years. My hope is to be able to offer assistance to those who need it but can't afford the traditional law firm.. If you need assistance with a family law matter, or know someone who does, please reach out to me at I am more than happy to chat with you to see if I can help!
