Arden GrayLegal
For Property Owners & Managers
Court-trained representation for Georgia landlords and management companies. High volume, handled efficiently, with a trial lawyer ready the moment a tenant fights back.
Why Landlords Choose Us
Most eviction shops are paperwork mills. Arden Gray Legal pairs that efficiency with a courtroom lawyer and a process you can actually see.
A trial lawyer on every file, ready for contested hearings and appeals, not just the filing.
Portfolios and turnovers handled at scale, with the same standard on case one and case fifty.
Filed right the first time and pushed through magistrate court as fast as the docket allows.
We adapt to your existing workflow. If your company uses a vendor portal, we work there; if not, we provide a structured intake and tracking system for your team.
Clear status on every case, so you always know what is filed, what is set, and what comes next.
Georgia dispossessory law done correctly, every notice, every filing, every appearance.
The Process
Files can be opened through your management platform or through our intake system. From there, we move the dispossessory through each stage and keep your team updated.
The demand for possession Georgia requires, documented so it cannot be challenged.
The dispossessory filed in the right county court, with the right grounds.
The tenant served by the marshal or sheriff, tracked so nothing stalls.
We appear if the tenant answers, or move for default if they do not.
A favorable judgment, the writ of possession, and any rent and damages available.
The set-out coordinated with the marshal so you get the unit back.
Workflow & Reporting
For larger operators, we can receive assignments, upload updates, and close out matters through the platform your team already uses. For owners without a system in place, we provide organized intake, case tracking, and status reporting.
One point of contact. Clear status. A process that works with your business, not against it.
The Difference
When a tenant answers, raises a defense, or appeals, a high-volume filing shop is often out of its depth, and that is when possession slips away from you. Arden Gray Legal is a trial firm. If your case is contested, you already have the litigator you need, with no scramble and no lost time.
What We Handle
Nonpayment, holdovers, term expirations, and lease violations, taken through to the writ of possession.
Commercial tenant defaults, lease enforcement, and holdover tenants handled with the same rigor.
When a tenant answers, counterclaims, or appeals, a trial lawyer is already on it. You are never left mid-case.
Owners and managers set up with one contact, one process, and consistent status across every county.
Avoid the Liability
Most landlord losses are self-inflicted. Self-help lockouts and utility shutoffs are illegal in Georgia and can cost you far more than the unpaid rent, and a defective notice or a DIY filing in the wrong court gets the case dismissed and resets the clock. We keep you clear of all of it.
Where We File
We cover the counties within roughly forty miles of Atlanta, so a portfolio spread across county lines still runs through one firm.
Have properties in a county not listed? Ask us. We will tell you straight whether we can cover it.
Questions
It depends on the county and on whether the tenant contests it. An uncontested dispossessory often moves through magistrate court in a matter of weeks. Contested cases take longer. We push every case as fast as the court allows.
Rates are set per file and negotiated by volume, so a management company sending steady work is not on the same terms as an owner with a single property. You will have your rate in writing before any work begins.
You get clear, regular status on each file, what has been filed, what is set, and what happens next, through a single point of contact. No chasing for answers.
Yes. We are a trial firm, so if a tenant answers, raises a defense, counterclaims, or appeals, we litigate it. You are never left to find another lawyer mid-case.
Yes. We set management companies and owners up with one point of contact and a consistent process across properties and counties, residential and commercial.
Become a Client
Tell us about your properties. We will set you up with one point of contact and a process that simply runs, so evictions stop being something you have to manage.
Messages go straight to the firm. This is not legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship.
