Family Law

Divorce
Child Support
Sam Edgar has been a practicing attorney in Alma, Georgia since 1984. During that time he has provided legal services to clients throughout Southeast Georgia with emphasis on personal injury cases -- such as car wrecks, premises liability and medical malpractice -- family law cases -- including divorce, custody and child support issues -- real estate -- workers' compensation, and criminal law. Sam Edgar also provides mediation services to other attorneys.
Child Custody and Visitation
Family law is often perceived as pertaining mainly to divorce and child custody matters. However, this is only part of the picture. In addition to divorce and custody, we also offer expertise in areas such as prenuptial agreements, paternity actions, and post-judgment proceedings.

Criminal Law

Criminal Defense
In criminal law, the suit is initiated by the state or federal government through a prosecutor rather than being initiated by the victim, as it is in civil law. Plaintiffs in a civil law suit only need to show by a preponderance of the evidence that a defendant is 51% or more liable (responsible) for the damages. But, the prosecutor in a criminal law case has to prove to the judge or jury 'beyond a reasonable doubt' that the defendant is guilty of the crime charged.
Traffic Violations
Unlike civil law, which involves private law suits between two or more private entities, criminal law attorneys represent clients who are being prosecuted by the state or federal government for an act that has been classified as a crime. Any act or failure to perform an act as designated by public law is considered a crime. With the exception of strict liability crimes, most crimes consist of three elements: an act (actus reus), a mental state (mens rea) and the intent to do social harm. Crimes are classified as 'misdemeanors' (less serious offenses that are normally punishable by a fine like some traffic violations, petty theft, or possession of a small amount of marijuana) and 'felonies' (more serious offenses that warrant imprisonment of one or more years, such as rape, grand theft, assault and battery, assault with a deadly weapon, or homicide/murder).

Business and Corporate Law

Business Transactions

Employment Law

Workers Compensation
Injuries occurring in the workplace are governed by specific laws in Georgia known as the Georgia Workers' Compensation Act. If you have been injured while you were working and the injury arose out of and in the course of your job, you may be entitled to compensation for loss wages, medical expenses, and any permanent or temporary disability

Property Law

Real Estate Litigation
Premises Liability
Real Estate Transactions
Today's business environment is one of constant change, of rethinking how business is conducted and how businesses can meet the challenges of a global economy. Traditional ways of conducting a business practice provide guidance, but they are only a starting point for creative development of business transactions. Similarly, whether the real estate market is in a 'boom' or 'bust' phase, there is substantial money to be made or lost. The objective of our business and real estate focus is to help our clients minimize risk and maximize opportunity, regardless of the cycle. Our lawyers have many years of experience in structuring purchases and sales of businesses, buy-sell agreements, and other corporate arrangements and real estate transactions.
Property Damage
Product liability law involves only items marketed for sale or lease and only injuries which occur as a result of a defect or deficiency in the quality or performance of the product. A products liability claim can be brought against anyone in the marketing chain, from the manufacturer to the retailer. While repair persons, installers, and inspectors may not be liable for the actual failure or defect of a product, they may be liable for negligence or breach of warranties for faulty repairs, installation, or inspection which causes personal injury or property damage.

Health Law

Personal Injury
Personal injuries not only cause physical pain, but also cause emotional and financial hardship through loss of work, medical bills and stress placed upon individuals and families. Whether caused by an automobile accident, a defective product, or other negligent, careless or reckless conduct, injuries alter lives forever. Dealing with insurance companies and their vast resources can be frustrating and intimidating to many individuals. Despite what insurance adjusters may tell you, insurance companies do not represent the interests of the injured party. We will aggressively fight for you to obtain a settlement or trial verdict that fairly reflects all your damages, including medical bills, lost wages, emotional stress, pain and suffering, and other damages.
Medical Malpractice
Malpractice occurs when one person is injured by the acts or admissions or a professional. Generally we think of malpractice being medical malpractice, but it also includes actions against attorneys, accountants, or any other person listed as a license professional under Georgia Law. Malpractice claims are generally more involved and specialized than any other types of litigation. As a result we will often associate another law firm that specializes in that type of practice.
Auto Accidents

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
What makes our business and real estate practice particularly well-suited to our clients' needs is our experience. We are able to act as business counselors in suggesting alternate ways of accomplishing goals, and in assisting our clients to achieve their goals in the optimum way. We can also provide assistance in all forms of business and real estate transactions, including loans and other financial arrangements, joint ventures, and strategic alliances. That is because we are large enough to have attorneys with practical expertise not only in business and real estate acquisitions and finance, but also in the critical allied fields of taxation, estate planning, bankruptcy, and commercial litigation. However, our firm is also small enough that we can communicate effectively with each other to solve our clients' problems. The result? Business and real estate problems are resolved efficiently and in their totality, resulting in significant savings for our clients. An important part of our business group involves planning to minimize state and local taxes such as sales and use tax, corporate net income tax, capital stock/foreign franchise tax, personal income tax, business privilege tax, use and occupancy tax, liabilities and real estate assessment and real estate exemption determinations. We assist business with restructuring activities in order to take advantage of existing tax law provisions. And if a state or local governments asserts that a business owes taxes, we are able to review the taxing authority's determination and, if appropriate, challenge the determination through an administrative appeal or, if necessary, in court. Simply put, we will provide the practical advice you need to make your next business or real estate venture as profitable as possible.
Wills
Estate planning is the attorney-assisted process that examines your needs and assets and helps you realize your goals. There are two major goals in most estate planning: to keep costs down and to make it as efficient as possible. By utilizing wills and trusts our firm prevents unfortunate probate situations and assists in creating a peaceful environment upon the passing of a loved one.
