About Us

Wakhisi-Douglas was founded in 2010 by a former judge who wanted to provide clients with strong advocacy that was grounded in real courtroom experience. From the beginning, our firm has focused on delivering practical legal guidance across a range of matters, including collection defense, criminal defense, civil litigation, and personal injury. Clients come to us for clarity, preparation, and a disciplined approach to protecting their interests at every stage of the legal process.

Call (762) 722-0248 today to schedule a free consultation. We can meet in-person at our Atlanta office or virtually, whichever you prefer.

A Thoughtful Approach to Every Case

Our approach is shaped by our experience on both sides of the bench. We understand how courts evaluate legal arguments, evidence, and credibility. That perspective informs how we prepare cases, from early analysis and motion practice to negotiation and trial presentation. Rather than relying on a single approach, we assess each case on its own facts, identifying procedural opportunities, evidentiary issues, and strategic paths forward.

This mindset is especially important in collection defense, where high-volume debt buyers and creditors often rely on standardized filings and assumptions about how defendants will respond. Our team examines documentation closely, challenges unsupported claims, and evaluates whether creditors can meet their burden under Georgia law. 

As a member of the National Association of Consumer Attorneys, we stay engaged with evolving consumer protection laws and apply that knowledge to help clients navigate complex financial disputes.
