Tori K White
Atlanta Volunteer Lawyers Foundation
Tori White, a family law attorney based in Marietta, Georgia, recognizes that the approach to resolving family disputes can vary depending on each family's situation. She works with families to explore different options for alternative dispute resolution, aiming to achieve outcomes that focus on their needs and priorities. White believes in the importance of families making their own decisions about their children and future.
As a registered neutral in Georgia with a focus on domestic legal matters, White helps individuals manage their conflicts through mediation and arbitration. This method allows families to resolve disputes outside of court, which can be beneficial for maintaining family relationships. In her role, she leads parties through negotiations, helps draft mediated agreements, and, when acting as an arbitrator, makes decisions considering the parties' stated positions.
When disputes require court intervention, White has a broad background in handling various aspects of family and matrimonial law in metro Atlanta. Her practice areas include divorce, custody, domestic violence, property division, parenting plans, child support, and legitimation.
Despite the often adversarial nature of litigation, White prioritizes the interests of her clients, especially concerning their children. She serves as both a court-appointed and private Guardian ad Litem (GAL) to represent the best interests of child clients. Additionally, she is a certified parent coordinator, helping parents in high-conflict situations shift their focus back to their children and away from the costly aspects of litigation.
