Testimonials

Stephen L.
“Because of Erik Broel’s dedication and professionalism, my family’s experience of unexpectedly losing a loved one was not made more emotionally traumatic. He lead and advised us at every step of the legal process, as well as outlining potential challenges. Erik also guided my family in making informed decisions during the case, avoiding unnecessary time and added expense.
Erik protected my family members from losing property, and money that was rightfully theirs. Additionally, he suggested that the settlement account for appropriate expenses (which had not occurred to me). Erik worked diligently ensuring that my family was in a position to succeed.
His sole purpose is achieving the best result for those he represents. Erik Broel literally takes the defense of his client’s interests personally.”

“My legal team at Georgia Probate Law Group communicated with me effectively and helped guide me through the probate of my late husband’s estate. I felt lost before I started working with this group, but they have helped me settle everything correctly and legally. Their support has been a blessing in a difficult time. Attorney Rogers and Dewey have been amazing through this process.”

Ursula Thiel
“I would highly recommend GPLG to anyone needing assistance dealing with a legal probate matter. Their team worked diligently to provide me with help in my time of need. My questions were answered in a timely manner and the legal procedures were explained to me in a way that I could easily understand.
I was treated with respect and patience in a time when I was not only grieving a loss, but also needed guidance navigating foreign territory. Their help was much appreciated.”

Hugh Bond
“Thank you. I appreciate your excellent work.”

Doug Black
“This is a group that really knows its way around the probate system. They care I worked with Dave Dupee and Dewey Vick. They have a number of years between them and they navigated me through everything. Be aware that you pay for their care, but good legal representation isn’t free. They don’t do anything that isn’t warranted. I have been thrilled with the care they have given.”

About Us
Single-Minded Dedication That Gets Results
Georgia Probate and Estate Law is our focus and passion.
It’s what we do, our bread and butter, day in and day out. This single-minded dedication is what makes us the best in this field.
We work in every county within the State of Georgia and help individuals and families from all over the United States. When a family member passes away, our team is there to help you through one of the most difficult times you will face.
Probate is complicated.
We believe in settling an estate or trust fairly and making the process as simple and easy to understand as possible.
Sometimes, that means helping administer and settle an estate or trust peacefully, while other times, it means aggressively litigating a situation in court. Other times, we help with estates and trusts that are somewhere in between those two extremes.
Our staff is friendly, helpful, and here for you. We care about our clients and help you understand your situation, make a plan, and ensure that things are done fairly and right.
