We are thrilled to announce that our amazing Office Manager, Courtney Shepard, has been named “Young Professional of the Year” by the Rome Floyd Chamber!
At yesterday’s packed annual Chamber meeting, Courtney was recognized for her outstanding contributions to the community. Her dedication, professionalism, and leadership make her truly deserving of this prestigious honor.
We are incredibly proud to celebrate our very own Virginia Harman, who was honored this past Saturday by the Heart of the Community Foundation with the 2025 Award of Honor for her outstanding service to the community and unwavering dedication to justice.
Throughout her career, Virginia has demonstrated a deep commitment to serving others—both inside and outside the courtroom. She has dedicated countless hours to pro bono work, particularly focused on protecting the cleanliness of our rivers and ensuring access to justice for all in Rome and Floyd County. Her passion for community extends far beyond her legal work, as seen in her leadership role in conservancy of Georgia’s natrual resources, her dedication to cancer support initiatives, and her tireless work in animal rescue.
Virginia’s legacy is one of compassion, leadership, and unwavering commitment to justice and community. Her late husband, Tracy, and her loving family—Ginni, Kate, Billy, Evan, and Ella—are no doubt proud of all that she has achieved.
McRae, Smith, Peek, Harman & Monroe, LLP is happy to announce the successful settlement of 24 nuisance lawsuits in federal court addressing noise and vibration disturbances allegedly caused by a privately owned power plant recently constructed in northeast Georgia.
Over the past few years, our litigation team, led by Partner Jason Sanker, has represented local residents who claimed to experience significant disruptions due to nuisances caused by excessive noise and vibrations from the plant. The residents claimed the nuisances not only disrupted their daily lives but also raised serious concerns about reduction of the value of their properties.
Our team worked tirelessly to ensure each homeowner’s concerns were heard and addressed. We successfully negotiated settlements, the terms of which are confidential, that provided our clients with the compensation they deserved.
This achievement highlights our commitment to protecting the rights and well-being of the citizens of Georgia. We are proud to have supported our clients and achieved justice on their behalf.
