About Ms. Suzanne Temple Prescott

Suzanne T. Prescott is a founding partner of the family law firm Bivek Brubaker & Prescott LLC. In her words: “My partners and I share a belief that getting the best result for our clients does not always have to involve long, expensive, contentious Court battles. I view divorce as the new beginning in my clients’ lives, and I focus on obtaining the best starting point for them from all aspects – financially, emotionally, spiritually and structurally. I find purpose and joy in helping my clients and their families jump start their new possibilities from a position of strength.” In furtherance of her goals, Suzanne trained in Collaborative Law, which offers a structured, non-adversarial approach to divorce.

Following graduation from the University of Georgia School of Law, Suzanne has dedicated her entire career solely to practicing family law because “I don’t strive to be the best general attorney, I strive to be the best family law attorney so that my clients are assured that I provide exceptional representation, and that they can trust and count on me when I’m in their corner.” She is experienced in all aspects of family law, having represented all manners of clients – husband, wife, wealthy, underprivileged – in all manner of situations – contested divorce, uncontested divorce, custody, child support, agreement modification, adoption, negotiation of prenuptial agreements, and contempt actions.

Suzanne grew up in Connecticut, but headed south for college where she graduated cum laude from Emory University before conquering law school. When Suzanne is not advocating for her clients she is an avid runner with 2 marathons and countless half-marathons under her belt. She is a food and wine enthusiast who enjoys cooking, and she reserves her Fall Saturdays for Bulldog football and tailgating in Athens. Suzanne and her husband Ryan live in Smyrna, Georgia with their two children, Conner and Bronwyn, and their Chocolate Labradoodle named Penny.

Hired Attorney

I am one month out of the finalization of my divorce. By far the most hurtful experience I've been through.
However, through the quagmire, Suzanne communicated honestly and effectively with me, keeping me focused on the outcome I desired. She never led me to have a higher expectation given the situation, she actually exceeded the expectation of the results I had. She was direct yet compassionate with me and she worked effectively in my favor!
Thanks for everything Suzanne!
Happy happy happy!

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
