In Our Clients Words

  • It is with our sincere appreciation to Robby Hughes and Enrique Morales in representing us through a very difficult probate case recently. Their professionalism and ethics are second to none. The end result of our case resulted in our total satisfaction. It has been our extreme pleasure working with this firm and highly recommend them to anyone needing legal services.

  • Robert has assembled a great team at Hughes and Associates. They are very good and have that personal touch.

  • Robby’s firm handled our wills/ estate planning documents. Was extremely pleased with the level of professionalism and service provided . Highly recommend.

  • After the death of my husband and not having a will, Robby was so kind and compassionate to guide me through my options. Everyone working at this firm was so helpful any time I had questions. I needed to move our property to my name due to credit card debt my husband encountered. Robby was a pleasure to work with during this difficult time. I would highly recommend this team for any probate issues.

  • I’m almost afraid to write this review, as I’m afraid that my words will not adequately convey the appreciation and respect my siblings and I have for him and his team. They are the best and what I consider anyone who is expecting professional service and advice, would want. They always provided sound advice, showed kindness and compassion in everything they did for us. Highly recommend to anyone!

Mark Stucky, Attorney at Law
Robert W. Hughes and Associates

To Whom it May Concern:
Attorney Mark Stucky
Highly Recommend
as a dedicated, knowledgeable, professional lawyer who treats each client as an individual.
In my case, I was unfamiliar with Georgia Law. Knowing ignorance of the law is unacceptable my immediate choice was to hire the best attorney for advise and help.
The Process
Mark and I did a zoom meeting, because I live several hours from Hughes Law Firm.
He needed information about the case. Mark accepted my case and informed me about my payment commitment which I accepted.
All communication Mark handled through the oppositions attorney per Georgia Law.

I Recommend Mark Stucky,
Attorney at Law.

Worst law firm I've ever encountered. Took my case on for money matters, in order to collect restitution from an auto accident claim and instead they "churned" by file, thus costing me thousands of dollars in their legal fees, while dragging my case out for 4 years, and then ultimately offering the insurance company a "low-ball" amount and literally held my settlement check for well over 7 months until it was no longer valid, then left me with NOTHING! Theses scumbags are still attempting to collect more monies from me. Let's do the math... I've given them about $14k plus, my vehicle repairs were about another $14k in total and they only settled (without my consent) a measly $19k and they're still after me for about $2,800. I had to hire a malpractice attorney in order to acquire my losses. Both Mr. Hughes and Mark Stuckey took full advantage of my case!

Enrique Morales handled my case as if I were family. He was very knowledgeable and even had prior work experience in DeKalb County Probate court that was invaluable to my unique circumstances. He was very thorough and thoughtful in his consultation with me. Should you ever find yourself in need of a probate attorney for whatever reason, please do not hesitate to call Enrique and tell him I sent you! I highly recommend this firm and express complete confidence in services rendered.

AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME
My wife and I have hired lawyers & law firms in the past for various reasons. When I hired Robert W. Hughes & Associates, I didn't realize I was hiring the best of the best. Robert W. Hughes & Associates went above and beyond anything I could have hoped for; FAR ABOVE.
I live out of state, which made it difficult for me to be present, in person, to take care of my dad's estate. Not only did Robert W. Hughes & Associates handle all of the legal necessities, they also even hired & supervised the clearing out, cleaning up, and junk removal necessary to put my dad's house up for sale.
Even though Mark Stuckey and Kristen Leone handled most of the legal details, Mr. Robert Hughes was always there to answer difficult questions, and put my worries to rest. Mr. Hughes, Mr Stuckey, Ms Leone and all the attorneys, legal clerks, and support staff were always professional, polite, courteous and made me feel they "had my back."
I could not be more pleased and thankful to everyone there at Robert W. Hughes & Associates. They are a wonderful group of professionals.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Let me start by say that Attorney Hughes and his team did an amazing job in fighting to make sure that my son got what his father worked so hard for prior to his passing. Amy Macrina was great. She was very informative and kept me on the loop every step of the way. Please please please choose this team to represent you.
