Attorney Farrey proudly holds a Florida state title and a national championship title as ‘Best Advocate’ for her performances in the courtroom.
Attorney Farrey has quickly developed a niche area of her family law practice that focuses on Father’s Rights. Although she represents both men and women, early in her career Attorney Farrey discovered that there was a need for Fathers to have more legal representation in the state of Georgia. The legitimation laws in Georgia require unmarried fathers to file a lawsuit against the mother to have any legal or parental rights to their own children. Historically, fathers have been the underdogs in the courtroom. However, it remains Attorney Farrey’s passion and goal to level the playing field for fathers as she aggressively advocates for their parental rights daily.
