Jeanne brings a wealth of complex, commercial litigation experience to her clients’ legal issues, top-notch corporate experience, employment law advocacy, and a lengthy record of dispute resolution success. She has incomparable experience in representing both plaintiffs and defendants, both individuals and corporations of all sizes, from Mom and Pop to Fortune 100 multi-billion dollar corporations.Jeanne has developed and used her skills in multiple forums—mediation, arbitration, administrative hearings, bench trials, jury trials, appellate courts and settlement negotiations— both in Georgia and in other states, as well as abroad. She has lived in and understands the corporate world. Her breadth of experience has equipped her to “know the enemy” and conquer it. Yet her clients often comment that she has a rare sensitivity to and compassion for their circumstances, which makes her a good listener and easy to talk to and understand.In dealing with business clients, Jeanne recognizes that the individuals who run the business make the business, and she is skilled at listening to business executives as they explain their needs, be they individual or business needs. Jeanne is dedicated to giving her business executive clients excellent legal service, whether they are executives seeking employment with or severance from a corporation, or executives representing corporations seeking to hire or terminate individuals, resolve a contract dispute, fight against business fraud, theft or other torts, or develop necessary business and employment contracts. Both individual and Fortune 100 clients have found Jeanne to be responsive to their needs and a strong advocate for their interests.

Testimonial: In a recent legal action against my employer; I was struck by the very high level of professionalism exhibited by my attorney: Ms. Jeanne Bynum Hipes. While I must admit I did not do my due diligence to engage her, I was extremely lucky to have found her. All during the process, Ms. Hipes kept me constantly informed of our position and provided me with her keen insight as to the other party’s intentions, our position and my potential courses of action. I always felt we were in this thing together! When one considers outstanding attributes of an attorney, they would be well served to think of Ms. Hipes. Thus the following phrases come to mind: Extremely Professional Completely Ethical Totally conscious of our relevant position Absolutely competent Superb negotiator Exceedingly Effective Very pleasant to deal with Wonderful Hipes Law staff If one were to ask: “Who would you get to represent you in another employment case?” Then I would have to answer; “Unequivocally, Jeanne Bynum Hipes” Frankly, if ever I have the need for an attorney’s services… Jeanne will be my first call… Sincerely, George E. Holroyd, Jr.

Ms. Jeanne Hipes has helped me tremendously. I admire and revere her. She has been very professional and thorough in assisting me to understand and be able to cope with a very slippery slope that I was dealing with regarding unfair treatment by an unscrupulous employer. She has literally inspired me to want to study to be a paralegal and I feel that I have grown as a person by knowing her. She is so worth knowing! -Laura

I rarely leave reviews, but I felt the need to share the experience I had with Jeanne. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable and informed, but she is also deeply compassionate and dedicated to helping her clients. Unlike so many other attorneys, she is an attentive listener, thinks outside of the box, is thorough, and goes out of her way to make sure her clients understand and agree with what is required to move forward. Would highly recommend!

Ms. Hipes was the utmost professional and expert in my EEOC claim. She stuck to her promised timelines regarding preparation of our response, correspondences with the EEOC, and final submission. She was empathetic, considering the ordeal I had endured, and articulated it very effectively. The response she prepared was thorough, accurate, compelling, and extremely well written. Jeanne knew exactly what needed to happen when and so kindly guided me through the process. I would strongly recommend her for your legal needs. She was a bulldog with my case, but an absolute pleasure to work with.

Jeanne never missed a deadline in negotiating my separation from my employer. She ensured that some of the legalese in the agreement was not all one-sided and was able to help me garner some of my bonus that my employer wanted me sacrifice. Overall, the matter was handled expediently without long, drawn out back & forth or mudslinging. I would recommend Jeanne if you need to resolve a separation of employment and have never gone through this situation before. Most employer severance agreements are written with the employer, not the employee in mind. There is much to be sorted out that does not overly penalize the employee; Jeanne was helpful in sorting all of it.

Ms Hipes is clearly experienced in her field. This was obvious during conversations, case preparation and mediation. She has sound knowledge of employment law and best practices. I appreciated how Ms Hipes prepared me for mediation considering it is emotional and unchartered territory. She is honest and upfront with her assessment of your case throughout the process which is critical in my view. Ms Hipes has a grand network of colleagues from various aspects of the legal world...opposing counsel, mediators, etc. This is valuable as it helps with knowing the audience. Only experience and positive reputation can give you this advantage. Ms Hipes truly understands what her clients live as a result of being violated. Her actions demonstrate this through her involvement with clients and calculated representation with opposing counsel. She shines in mediations. I found strength through her unshakable but fair approach -- always backed with integrity. Ms Hipes is top in her field. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for representation willing to fight the good fight.

After researching attorneys specializing in employment law and litigation, I selected Jeanne Bynum Hipes to represent me in a breach of contract case against my former employer. I can state unequivovally hiring Mrs. Bynum Hipes was the best decision I could have made. I was so impressed with Mrs. Hipes after our initial meeting with her ability to sort through a tremendous amount of information and then write a demand letter capturing the facts with near precision. The letter Mrs. Hipes drafted was so powerful that it in itself clearly outlined to my former employer that Mrs. Hipes was a professional, skilled trial attorney. Although my former employer attempted to resist and continue their efforts of breaching the contract I had secured with them upon my resignation, Mrs. Hipes was quick and to the point in countering their arguments. Mrs. Hipes won my claim (in full plus attorney fees) without needing to file suit or enter an arbitration/mitigation scenario. Clearly, I would always recommend that a person attempt to work out differences prior to seaking legal representation because there is never a guarantee you will win, but if you find yourself in need of an experienced litigator or employment lawyer, Jeanne Bynum Hipes is the Georgia attorney you should be speaking with! I would describe Mrs. Hipes as calm, calculated, thoughtful, responsive, and honest. I was so impressed with Mrs. Hipes' calm demeanor during stressful responses from my former employer's attorney. Mrs. Hipes always thought the issue through, responded strongly with facts, and in each case shut down the other attoner's attempt to counter our claim. Also, I want to mention, although attorney fees are costly, I feel Mrs. Hipes was more than fair with her billings. In short, I can't recommend Mrs. Hipes high enough and should I ever need an attorney again in the future she is without doubt the attorney I will use.

After researching attorneys specializing in employment law and litigation, I selected Jeanne Bynum Hipes to represent me in a breach of contract case against my former employer. I can state unequivovally hiring Mrs. Bynum Hipes was the best decision I could have made. I was so impressed with Mrs. Hipes after our initial meeting with her ability to sort through a tremendous amount of information and then write a demand letter capturing the facts with near precision. The letter Mrs. Hipes drafted was so powerful that it in itself clearly outlined to my former employer that Mrs. Hipes was a professional, skilled trial attorney. Although my former employer attempted to resist and continue their efforts of breaching the contract I had secured with them upon my resignation, Mrs. Hipes was quick and to the point in countering their arguments. Mrs. Hipes won my claim (in full plus attorney fees) without needing to file suit or enter an arbitration/mitigation scenario. Clearly, I would always recommend that a person attempt to work out differences prior to seaking legal representation because there is never a guarantee you will win, but if you find yourself in need of an experienced litigator or employment lawyer, Jeanne Bynum Hipes is the Georgia attorney you should be speaking with! I would describe Mrs. Hipes as calm, calculated, thoughtful, responsive, and honest. I was so impressed with Mrs. Hipes' calm demeanor during stressful responses from my former employer's attorney. Mrs. Hipes always thought the issue through, responded strongly with facts, and in each case shut down the other attoner's attempt to counter our claim. Also, I want to mention, although attorney fees are costly, I feel Mrs. Hipes was more than fair with her billings. In short, I can't recommend Mrs. Hipes high enough and should I ever need an attorney again in the future she is without doubt the attorney I will use.

Testimonial: In a recent legal action against my employer; I was struck by the very high level of professionalism exhibited by my attorney: Ms. Jeanne Bynum Hipes. While I must admit I did not do my due diligence to engage her, I was extremely lucky to have found her. All during the process, Ms. Hipes kept me constantly informed of our position and provided me with her keen insight as to the other party’s intentions, our position and my potential courses of action. I always felt we were in this thing together! When one considers outstanding attributes of an attorney, they would be well served to think of Ms. Hipes. Thus the following phrases come to mind: Extremely Professional Completely Ethical Totally conscious of our relevant position Absolutely competent Superb negotiator Exceedingly Effective Very pleasant to deal with Wonderful Hipes Law staff If one were to ask: “Who would you get to represent you in another employment case?” Then I would have to answer; “Unequivocally, Jeanne Bynum Hipes” Frankly, if ever I have the need for an attorney’s services… Jeanne will be my first call… Sincerely, George E. Holroyd, Jr.

Ms. Jeanne Hipes has helped me tremendously. I admire and revere her. She has been very professional and thorough in assisting me to understand and be able to cope with a very slippery slope that I was dealing with regarding unfair treatment by an unscrupulous employer. She has literally inspired me to want to study to be a paralegal and I feel that I have grown as a person by knowing her. She is so worth knowing! -Laura

I rarely leave reviews, but I felt the need to share the experience I had with Jeanne. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable and informed, but she is also deeply compassionate and dedicated to helping her clients. Unlike so many other attorneys, she is an attentive listener, thinks outside of the box, is thorough, and goes out of her way to make sure her clients understand and agree with what is required to move forward. Would highly recommend!

Ms. Hipes was the utmost professional and expert in my EEOC claim. She stuck to her promised timelines regarding preparation of our response, correspondences with the EEOC, and final submission. She was empathetic, considering the ordeal I had endured, and articulated it very effectively. The response she prepared was thorough, accurate, compelling, and extremely well written. Jeanne knew exactly what needed to happen when and so kindly guided me through the process. I would strongly recommend her for your legal needs. She was a bulldog with my case, but an absolute pleasure to work with.

Jeanne never missed a deadline in negotiating my separation from my employer. She ensured that some of the legalese in the agreement was not all one-sided and was able to help me garner some of my bonus that my employer wanted me sacrifice. Overall, the matter was handled expediently without long, drawn out back & forth or mudslinging. I would recommend Jeanne if you need to resolve a separation of employment and have never gone through this situation before. Most employer severance agreements are written with the employer, not the employee in mind. There is much to be sorted out that does not overly penalize the employee; Jeanne was helpful in sorting all of it.

Ms Hipes is clearly experienced in her field. This was obvious during conversations, case preparation and mediation. She has sound knowledge of employment law and best practices. I appreciated how Ms Hipes prepared me for mediation considering it is emotional and unchartered territory. She is honest and upfront with her assessment of your case throughout the process which is critical in my view. Ms Hipes has a grand network of colleagues from various aspects of the legal world...opposing counsel, mediators, etc. This is valuable as it helps with knowing the audience. Only experience and positive reputation can give you this advantage. Ms Hipes truly understands what her clients live as a result of being violated. Her actions demonstrate this through her involvement with clients and calculated representation with opposing counsel. She shines in mediations. I found strength through her unshakable but fair approach -- always backed with integrity. Ms Hipes is top in her field. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for representation willing to fight the good fight.

Although my former employer attempted to resist and continue their efforts of breaching the contract I had secured with them upon my resignation, Mrs. Hipes was quick and to the point in countering their arguments. Mrs. Hipes won my claim (in full plus attorney fees) without needing to file suit or enter an arbitration/mitigation scenario. Clearly, I would always recommend that a person attempt to work out differences prior to seaking legal representation because there is never a guarantee you will win, but if you find yourself in need of an experienced litigator or employment lawyer, Jeanne Bynum Hipes is the Georgia attorney you should be speaking with! I would describe Mrs. Hipes as calm, calculated, thoughtful, responsive, and honest. I was so impressed with Mrs. Hipes' calm demeanor during stressful responses from my former employer's attorney. Mrs. Hipes always thought the issue through, responded strongly with facts, and in each case shut down the other attoner's attempt to counter our claim. Also, I want to mention, although attorney fees are costly, I feel Mrs. Hipes was more than fair with her billings. In short, I can't recommend Mrs. Hipes high enough and should I ever need an attorney again in the future she is without doubt the attorney I will use.

Testimonial: In a recent legal action against my employer; I was struck by the very high level of professionalism exhibited by my attorney: Ms. Jeanne Bynum Hipes. While I must admit I did not do my due diligence to engage her, I was extremely lucky to have found her. All during the process, Ms. Hipes kept me constantly informed of our position and provided me with her keen insight as to the other party’s intentions, our position and my potential courses of action. I always felt we were in this thing together! When one considers outstanding attributes of an attorney, they would be well served to think of Ms. Hipes. Thus the following phrases come to mind: Extremely Professional Completely Ethical Totally conscious of our relevant position Absolutely competent Superb negotiator Exceedingly Effective Very pleasant to deal with Wonderful Hipes Law staff If one were to ask: “Who would you get to represent you in another employment case?” Then I would have to answer; “Unequivocally, Jeanne Bynum Hipes” Frankly, if ever I have the need for an attorney’s services… Jeanne will be my first call… Sincerely, George E. Holroyd, Jr.

Ms. Jeanne Hipes has helped me tremendously. I admire and revere her. She has been very professional and thorough in assisting me to understand and be able to cope with a very slippery slope that I was dealing with regarding unfair treatment by an unscrupulous employer. She has literally inspired me to want to study to be a paralegal and I feel that I have grown as a person by knowing her. She is so worth knowing! -Laura

I rarely leave reviews, but I felt the need to share the experience I had with Jeanne. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable and informed, but she is also deeply compassionate and dedicated to helping her clients. Unlike so many other attorneys, she is an attentive listener, thinks outside of the box, is thorough, and goes out of her way to make sure her clients understand and agree with what is required to move forward. Would highly recommend!

Ms. Hipes was the utmost professional and expert in my EEOC claim. She stuck to her promised timelines regarding preparation of our response, correspondences with the EEOC, and final submission. She was empathetic, considering the ordeal I had endured, and articulated it very effectively. The response she prepared was thorough, accurate, compelling, and extremely well written. Jeanne knew exactly what needed to happen when and so kindly guided me through the process. I would strongly recommend her for your legal needs. She was a bulldog with my case, but an absolute pleasure to work with.

Jeanne never missed a deadline in negotiating my separation from my employer. She ensured that some of the legalese in the agreement was not all one-sided and was able to help me garner some of my bonus that my employer wanted me sacrifice. Overall, the matter was handled expediently without long, drawn out back & forth or mudslinging. I would recommend Jeanne if you need to resolve a separation of employment and have never gone through this situation before. Most employer severance agreements are written with the employer, not the employee in mind. There is much to be sorted out that does not overly penalize the employee; Jeanne was helpful in sorting all of it.

Ms Hipes is clearly experienced in her field. This was obvious during conversations, case preparation and mediation. She has sound knowledge of employment law and best practices. I appreciated how Ms Hipes prepared me for mediation considering it is emotional and unchartered territory. She is honest and upfront with her assessment of your case throughout the process which is critical in my view. Ms Hipes has a grand network of colleagues from various aspects of the legal world...opposing counsel, mediators, etc. This is valuable as it helps with knowing the audience. Only experience and positive reputation can give you this advantage. Ms Hipes truly understands what her clients live as a result of being violated. Her actions demonstrate this through her involvement with clients and calculated representation with opposing counsel. She shines in mediations. I found strength through her unshakable but fair approach -- always backed with integrity. Ms Hipes is top in her field. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for representation willing to fight the good fight.
