Our Experience
Attorney James C. Warnes has more than 35 years of legal experience. Jim has served as chairman of the Athens Board of Zoning Appeals. Currently, he serves as president of the Downtown Athens Property Owners Association. Jim is joined by attorney Cecilia P. Mercer, who focuses on residential and commercial real estate transactions.
In addition to our experience assisting individuals and businesses in home closings and commercial real estate transactions, we have extensive experience in dispute resolution. Litigation is sometimes necessary, but often expensive and time-consuming. When we handle a real estate dispute, we work to resolve the matter in a creative and cost-effective fashion, without sacrificing your best interests in the process.
