As a family law attorney, Ms. Pittman has earned a reputation for delivering positive, compassionate counsel to her clients during their difficult times.

Devoted to both her legal and local communities, Ms. Swofford maintains active memberships in several professional legal organizations, and she gives back to her local community through her involvement with the Junior Service League of Forsyth County, where she once served as president, and the Rotary Club of Alpharetta, where she served on the board for several years.
