I had the privilege of representing a defendant in a civil action in the Superior Court of Spalding County. My client co-owned real property with another person (the Plaintiff). The real property at issue is my client's home.

The Plaintiff filed a lawsuit against my client seeking to force the sale of their jointly owned property and asking the court for a larger portion of the proceeds of the sale (in hopes that the Plaintiff would walk away with a lot of money and my client would walk away with very little money).

Based on some issues with the deed work related to the jointly owned real property, I filed a Motion to Dismiss the Plaintiff's lawsuit, arguing that the Plaintiff would not be able to prove their case given the way the property was titled. We were scheduled to argue this Motion before the Court last week; however, two days before the hearing, the Plaintiff's attorney decided to voluntarily dismiss the lawsuit.

I thoroughly enjoy making arguments before the Court to advocate for clients, but I won't complain if opposing counsel dismisses their case before I get the chance (...it saves my client money!).

I'm very happy for this client.

I had the privilege of representing five defendants in a civil defense matter. My clients consisted of a seller of real property, a realtor, a broker, and some individuals who were not proper parties.

The plaintiff made accusations of fraud, breach of contract, and more.

We filed a motion for summary judgment and argued our motion before the Spalding County Superior Court two weeks ago. I was happy to inform my clients today that the Court granted our motion and awarded my clients several thousand dollars in attorney’s fees.

I am very happy for these clients.

This morning I had the privilege of notifying my client that the Lamar County Superior Court granted our motion to dismiss a case filed against them. My client was facing claims of malicious prosecution, civil conspiracy, negligent and intentional infliction of emotional distress, and false imprisonment. I'm very happy for this client.

I had the privilege of representing a client in Dekalb County Magistrate Court this Wednesday for a bench trial. My client performed work for a homeowner who decided not to pay for the work. We filed suit, and the defendant filed a counterclaim. After a lengthy hearing, my client was awarded $11,894.38, which included the full contract amount, plus attorney's fees. The Court dismissed the defendant's counterclaims. I'm very happy for this client.

Over a year ago I helped two brothers become guardian and conservator over their mother after she experienced declining health. One factor that prompted the guardianship and conservatorship process was the fact that the mother had been taken advantage of by a "friend" for more than $150,000. After thoughtful consideration, my clients decided to pursue this "friend" and hold her liable for her conduct and the financial harm it caused their mother. The Spalding County Superior Court issued judgment in my clients' favor for just under $185,000 a few weeks ago on several counts, including fraud. I'm very happy for these clients. If Kendrick Law Office can do anything for you, please let me know.

The Superior Court of Henry County granted a motion for summary judgment in my client's favor last year. That judgment was appealed by the opposing party.

Kendrick Law Office had two interns over the summer, both from Pike County. Thank you Ashton & Ryan for your hard work. They were able to see a variety of matters come through the office. They sat in on court, attended client meetings, helped prepare adoption petitions, drafted reports, and assisted in the filing of a particularly large complaint. They have bright futures ahead of them.
