In the context of domestic litigation, Atlanta divorce attorney Kevin M. Mammola said his experience is that persistence is a key component for achieving success.
“This success relies on the attorney’s persistence in negotiating and litigating the case, and also relies on the attorney’s role in ensuring the client remains persistent in achieving his ultimate goal,” he said.
Mr. Mammola has vast experience in the area of child support law, including stints assisting in the establishment, collection, and enforcement of child support.
“Practicing on a team with a heavy caseload involving all aspects of Georgia child support required that I stay on the cutting edge of recent legal decisions and changes in the law with respect to child support,” Mr. Mammola said.
