Atlanta Attorney for Gay & Lesbian Legal Issues

Gay Atlanta Attorney Jeffery Cleghorn has made it a mission in his legal career to support the rights and defend the issues unique to the LGBT community.  From his stance on ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ and DOMA to local issues that affect Atlanta LGBT couples and individuals, Mr. Cleghorn’s support and passion for LGBT-related topics have been widely  acknowledged.  In 2011 the Atlanta Chapter of the Human Rights Campaign recognized Mr. Cleghorn’s efforts by awarding him the Dan Bradley Humanitarian Award, awarded yearly to an individual or organization that demonstrates a tradition of service and activism to the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community.

Attorney Cleghorn’s advocacy for Atlanta’s gay & lesbian community coupled with his career in Litigation and Family Law makes him well suited to resolve issues affecting gay and lesbian individuals.  From Domestic Partnership Agreements to Adoptions, Child Custody Disputes to Gay Divorces, Attorney Cleghorn offers the knowledge and perspective that only someone with his background and experience can provide.
