For nearly four decades, Gentry Law Firm has helped individuals and families throughout Marietta and Metro Atlanta work through divorce, custody, and other difficult family transitions. Today we are sharing news about the next stage of that work.
The family law team from Gentry Law Firm has joined Petrelli Previtera, LLC, a firm dedicated exclusively to divorce and family law. Founder William C. “Bill” Gentry has joined the firm as a partner, and our Marietta office continues to serve clients as Gentry Law Firm LLC, a Petrelli Previtera Family Law Office.
What Has Not Changed
The attorneys you know are still here. William C. “Bill” Gentry, Bradley Weidemann, and Colleen Warley continue representing clients from the same office near Marietta Square and the Cobb County Courthouse with the same approach to client service.
“Since 1986, we’ve been guiding people through the divorce process with compassion and expertise in family law. By understanding your unique situation and strategizing to secure your future, the Gentry Law Firm can help you make a smooth transition into the next chapter of your life.”
William C. “Bill” Gentry, Founder
That philosophy is the reason this relationship made sense. Petrelli Previtera shares the same focus on preparation, clear communication, and building a strategy around each client’s specific circumstances rather than applying a standard template to every case.
What This Means for Clients
For current and future clients, the transition brings continuity along with additional depth:
- The same local attorneys and office. No change in your legal team, your case, or where you meet with us.
- Deep Georgia experience. Our attorneys continue to handle matters in Cobb County and surrounding courts, with experience in Georgia trial and appellate courts including the Georgia Supreme Court and the Georgia Court of Appeals.
- A larger family law team. As a Petrelli Previtera office, and with Bill Gentry serving as a partner in the firm, our Marietta attorneys collaborate with a broader group of attorneys focused exclusively on divorce, custody, support, property division, and complex family law matters.
- The same commitments. Listening before recommending a course of action, explaining options clearly, preparing carefully for negotiation, mediation, or court, and helping clients protect what matters and plan for what comes next.
Growing Family Law Access Across Metro Atlanta
The Marietta office is Petrelli Previtera’s second location in Georgia, joining the firm’s Covington office and expanding access to experienced family law representation for families across the greater Atlanta area.
For Cobb County and the surrounding communities of Cherokee, Fulton, DeKalb, Gwinnett, Bartow, Douglas, Forsyth, and Paulding counties, that means local attorneys who know the courts, backed by the resources of a firm built entirely around family law.
Looking Ahead
Bill Gentry was installed as the 64th President of the State Bar of Georgia in June 2026, and he continues serving clients from the Marietta office while leading the State Bar during its 2026 to 2027 term. It is a fitting moment for this next step: a firm rooted in Cobb County for nearly forty years, now part of a practice built entirely around family law.
What has not changed since 1986 is the reason clients come to us. They need someone who will listen carefully, tell them the truth about their situation, and prepare thoroughly for whatever comes next. That is still the work.
