Our Core Values
At the center of our philosophy are our core values, represented by the S.W.O.R.D. in our logo.
Strength, Wisdom, Objectivity, Reputation, & Dependability
Strength in Numbers – Many hands lighten the load. You have the best chances of success when you have an entire team working for you. The odds of success increase when you have many minds working together to ackomplish a common goal.
Wisdom through Practice – Striving to Master evolving Georgia laws. You learn to be a good lawyer, not in law school, but by practicing in the real world. Through such practice we gain wisdom. Each attorney takes a unique career path and picks up valuable skills over time. The best attorneys pool knowledge and learn from the experience of those around them. Laws are created and modified every year and we strive to master the practice of family law.
Objectivity fostering Understanding – Filter out the noise and speak truth. It can be difficult to think rationally when you are in a heightened emotional state. Feelings of love, anger, jealousy, depression, and frustration will hamper your ability to make objectivly good decisions. Because we are on the outside, looking at your life and guiding you, we can show you the big picture and help guide you. We guide you and filter out the emotions to find solutions.
Reputation reflecting Quality – Others' words speak loudly. The legal profession has a poor reputation as a whole. You can't trust what any lawyer says about themselves. When evaluating lawyers, you can rely only on what clients say about their lawyers. With reputation as one of our core values, you know that your opinion of us matters. You won't find a family law firm in any county in the entire state of Georgia with a better Google reputation than us.
Dependability of Communication – Informed at Every Step, Empowered in Every Decision. Nothing is worse than the feeling of being lost and not knowing what to do next. We promise to keep you up to date with constant monthly communication. If at any point you feel like you are in the dark, ask for a meeting with someone on our leadership team, Russell, Eugenia, or Shannon. We are here to hold our team accountable to our core values.

Our Family Law Services
At Daniels & Taylor, P.C., our family law attorneys in Gwinnett County stand by you during difficult times and help you make those difficult decisions.
Our family law practice includes the following:
- Uncontested divorce — While the process is more cooperative, you still need a family law attorney to help with all the details of your divorce. Just because your divorce is uncontested does not mean you should forsake protecting your rights.
- Family Violence/Temporary Protective Order— Domestic violence victims and those wrongly accused of violence can come to us for legal support. Whether we are protecting the safety of the abused or the rights of the alleged abuser, we aggressively pursue the facts and present them to the court in a clear manner.
- Contested divorce — Attorney Tony A. Taylor, a co-founder of our firm, has the experience to handle the most complicated and contentious of divorces. You need a strong and ethical advocate to fight for a favorable outcome.
- Child custody and modifications — Since child custody is considered by many parents to be the most important issue, our family law lawyers work diligently to look out for the best interests of the child.
- Child support — Money matters can turn a cooperative divorce into a courtroom battle. Our job is to gather all the facts and calculate child support to ensure your children's needs are met now and in the future.
- Enforcement/contempt — If your ex-spouse is not following the divorce decree or custody order, we can assert your rights.
- Alimony — Also known as spousal maintenance, we have the experience and knowledge to help you through questions regarding monetary payments to (or from) your ex-spouse to maintain your expenses after your divorce.
- Property division — As you divorce, all property you acquired during the marriage is subject to equitable division. Our family law attorneys can help you with a plan to divide marital property and advise you of your legal rights.
- Paternity - Paternity actions are brought to establish a biological father's duty to pay child support.
- Legitimation — Legitimation actions are brought to establish a father's right to custody and parenting time.
- Fathers' rights — The rights of fathers are becoming more prominent and accepted in our courts. In many cases, fathers can provide an equally supportive and nurturing environment for their children. Our family law attorneys will fight to tell your side of the story and protect your rights regarding custody, visitation, and support.
- Adoption — It is a joyous occasion to add a new child to a family. However, adoption can be a long and complicated road. Our team can help you navigate the adoption process and avoid legal pitfalls along the way.
- Grandparents' rights — Like fathers, the rights of grandparents in having custody and access to their grandchildren are increasingly recognized in Georgia courts. Our family law lawyers work diligently to have your story heard
- Qualified Domestic Relations Orders — As part of a property settlement, QDROs can be used to transfer or divide funds between pension plans and retirement plans.

Common Mistakes in Family Law Issues
When dealing with family law issues, many people make mistakes that can have long-lasting impacts on their lives. These mistakes often occur due to a lack of knowledge, emotional distress, and not seeking proper legal counsel. You need to be aware of these common pitfalls and understand how a Gwinnett County family lawyer can help you through them. Here are just a few of the mistakes we often see.
- Not Hiring a Lawyer: Without professional guidance, you might miss out on legal rights and remedies that could be crucial to your case. A Gwinnett County family law attorney can provide expert advice and legal representation, ensuring your rights are protected.
- Mishandling Custody Discussions: Emotions can cloud judgments, leading to unfavorable custody arrangements that don't serve your child's best interests. Family law attorneys can mediate custody agreements, keeping your child’s welfare as a top priority.
- Ignoring Legal Deadlines: Missing important deadlines can result in losing your case or facing legal penalties. Your family lawyer will keep track of all deadlines and help make sure you meet those deadlines.
- Underestimating Financial Implications: Failing to consider long-term financial impacts can lead to financially devastating settlements. Let us help you understand all financial aspects and work towards a fair settlement.
- Lack of Proper Documentation: Incomplete or inaccurate documentation can weaken your case significantly. Attorneys help gather, prepare, and present all necessary documents correctly.
- Communicating Poorly with Your Ex-Partner: Bad communication can escalate conflicts and make legal proceedings harder. Lawyers can handle communications on your behalf, so you do not have to talk directly to your ex. This can help reduce conflict and build a cooperative atmosphere.
- Rushing Through the Process: Hasty decisions can lead to unfavorable outcomes, including unfair custody or financial arrangements. An experienced Gwinnett County family law attorney will guide you, ensuring all aspects are carefully considered.
By consulting with a family lawyer in Gwinnett County, you can avoid these common mistakes and secure a more favorable outcome in your family law case. Trusting a seasoned attorney with your family’s future is a step toward protecting your rights and achieving a fair resolution.
