Jenkins & Bowen, P.C., has a solid reputation for defending and protecting the interests of local governments. Our firm has represented government entities not only in Cartersville and Bartow County, but all throughout the state of Georgia. Our attorneys possess sophisticated local government litigation experience. We routinely analyze city ordinances, zoning issues and business contracts. It is our goal to provide litigation strategies that best protect the civil interests of Georgia's local governments.
Ordinance Issues
