About Hotard & Hise

In 2012, T. Gabriel Hotard Jr. and Tricia L. Hise combined their individual law practices to form Hotard & Hise. Together with attorney Tara Simmons and our team of paralegals and other staff, we provide a broad range of legal services to our clients in northern Georgia. We protect our clients’ interests in matters related to divorce and family law, auto accidents and serious personal injury, commercial litigation, real estate transactions and litigation, and more.

We are attorneys who will actually listen to you and take the time to provide the personalized service you need and deserve. Our clients are more than cases to us. They are our friends and neighbors. In addition to our law practice, we serve northeast Georgia communities by donating countless hours to the Circle of Hope, FAITH (Fight Abuse in the Home), North Georgia Soccer Association, and a variety of civic organizations and events.

Our attorneys bring more than 50 years of experience to your legal matter. Learn more about our credentials and backgrounds:
