Georgia Wills and Trust: Crafting Legacies with Compassion

Estate planning is more than just documents; it is about peace of mind and protecting the people you love. Georgia Wills and Trust, located in the iconic 1100 Peachtree building in Midtown, is a firm dedicated to making this process accessible, affordable, and understandable. Founded in 2009 by Janelle Williams, a Spelman College and Howard University School of Law graduate, the firm was born from personal experience. After seeing the emotional and financial toll of a loved one passing without a plan, Janelle Williams dedicated her career to preventing that heartache for others. Today, the firm is a trusted resource, particularly within the African American community, known for its warm, educational approach and transparent pricing.

Landmark Midtown Location

The firm operates from 1100 Peachtree St NE, Suite 250. This address places them in the 1100 Peachtree building, one of the most recognizable skyscrapers in Atlanta's skyline. Known for its distinct ziggurat (stepped) roofline and curved glass facade, the building is a symbol of Midtown's prestige.

A Professional and Welcoming Space

Clients visiting Suite 250 are welcomed into a world-class environment. The 1100 Peachtree building features a grand, two-story lobby with marble finishes and 24-hour security. Visitors must check in at the security desk before proceeding to the elevators. Despite the high-end setting, the firm's office is designed to be a safe space where clients can ask questions without judgment and discuss sensitive family dynamics comfortably.

Parking Made Easy

Parking in Midtown is often a headache, but not here. The building features a massive, attached parking garage with entrances on both Peachtree Street and Crescent Avenue. Clients can park securely and take the elevator directly into the building. The firm's central location also makes it easy to reach via rideshare or taxi.

Transit Connectivity

The office is perfectly situated for public transit users. It is located just a few blocks north of the Midtown MARTA Station and south of the Arts Center MARTA Station. Clients can easily walk from either station, making the firm accessible via the Red and Gold rail lines from anywhere in the metro area.

Janelle Williams and her team operate with a mission to educate and empower. They are known for their flat-fee pricing model, which eliminates the fear of hourly billing. You will know exactly what your estate plan costs upfront. This transparency, combined with their compassionate 'bedside manner', has earned them a loyal following. Whether you need a simple will or a complex trust, Georgia Wills and Trust offers the expertise you need to leave a lasting legacy.
