About
After a career as a Psychologist/Mental Health Counselor I decided to pursue a career in Law. I have found that my experience as a Counselor was good preparation for the practice of Law, particularly in Family Law Cases. The primary skill to be successful in either of these professions is to be a good listener. Lawyers are known for “talking” but unless you have first paid attention and listened to the Client, the Judge and Opposing Counsel it is difficult, if not impossible to say the right thing. I am married with three children and reside in Dekalb County, Georgia. I grew up in South Georgia and moved to Atlanta after graduating from the University of Georgia. I was heavily involved with the Boy Scouts of America through my son’s attainment of his Eagle rank. I also greatly enjoyed coaching my daughters’ recreational league soccer teams. My wife teaches school in the Dekalb County Public School System, which all of my children have attended. I enjoy my free time and love to fish and pursue wild life photography. If you find yourself in any kind of legal dispute, please do yourself a favor and obtain representation. While sometimes representing yourself may be the only possibility, if it is otherwise possible you need a qualified lawyer to represent you to ensure your interest are best protected. Please feel free to contact me via email or telephone for a free and confidential consultation.

Not only did Mr Hopkins answer my question 10 minutes on Avvo after I submitted it, but then he took 30 minuets out of his day to answers more questions that I had probono. He is a testament to his profession of helping those who need help, and if he were more local to the district where the hearing would be I would have him as my legal representation. Thank you Sir for all of your guidance and for helping me while asking nothing is return. I hope that I can find another attorney like who!
He is a patient and kind man you can trust with your life. Very knowledgeable and helpful in so many ways! It was truly a blessing to have him help guide me through my time in need!!
I approached Mr. Hopkins with a sticky tenancy problem where I was being abused by the landlord. Not only did Mr. Hopkins offer me good legal advice, he also took my mental health into consideration and recommended that walking away from the situation would be my best recourse rather than going to court. He took the time to answer both my emails and my phone call in my time of need, for which I am truly grateful! Unlike other lawyers I spoke with, Mr. Hopkins wasn't keen on taking my money, nor was he stingy with his time. If your case isn't worth the money, time or aggravation, he'll tell you so. Although unrelated, having gone through a hellish, dragged out divorce & custody battle myself, I can say with confidence that Mr. Hopkins is who you want to have representing you. I found him knowledgeable, compassionate, and above all, ethical!
I met Mr. Hopkins on Avvo after being FED UP with lack of progress on my case. I, like many people, was trying to get child support from an NCP who refused to pay a dime for years. I already had a case open with my local child support office but unfortunately, I don't live in Georgia where the NCP lived and therefore, trying to communicate between 2 child support offices in an interstate case was next to impossible. After a year of dealing with CSS, I had enough!! I found Mr. Hopkins through Avvo and couldn't have been happier. Not only was he able to expedite the process faster than I've ever seen with CSS but he is truly a breathe of fresh air. He's always been available to answer any questions I've had and even when he couldn't get back to me within a day, he always was there to let me know what was going on with my case. My only regret was that if I had Mr. Hopkins with me when my child support order was 1st set, I wouldn't have needed him later to clean up this mess later on. If I could give one piece of advice to anyone in a similar situation who thinks they can't afford an attorney, it would be: STOP WAITING FOR CSS!! In the time it takes for a local child support office to do NOTHING, you could've been already saving to hire someone like Mr. Hopkins by now.
Extreemly impressed by my consultation with Taylor Hopkins. He is very knowledgeable in regard to family law. He demonstrated more patience than I deserved (as I tend to get overly emotional as this case involves the wellbeing of my special needs grandson). He took the time to answer each of my questions, and most importantly he did not seem rushed or that he was giving generic answers. His answers were in depth and specific to my issue at hand. I suggest anyone going through a family law case, especially in regard to child custody, retain Taylor Hopkins services!!!
He’s give me a good advise and try to message me back thank you so much for help me I have a lot of ideas to get over this situation
He was good in explaining Georgia law about separation and whether or not I could take my daughter out of state while separated from my husband. He gave me a lot to think about so that I can make a final decision.
Very helpful and I will recommend him to my friends. He took time and explained my options, now I am more enlightened about my case than before.
I found John Taylor Hopkins very professional, reliable and straight forward. Highly recommend!
Attorney John Hopkins was very helpful and informative. Although I can not afford an attorney right now in my life, he was genuine and really seemed to care about my situation. He will definitely be my first pick if I ever could hire an attorney to represent me in the future.
