Atlanta-based real estate law firm Cook & James has added attorney Frances Suarez McKinney to its team, the company announced.
The company said McKinney’s focus will be purchase closings, title reviews and leading marketing initiatives.
“Frances brings a unique vitality and depth of experience to Cook & James,” said Kara Cook, co-founding partner at Cook & James. “We’ve worked with Frances in the past and it’s safe to say our entire team is thrilled to have the ability now to work with her on a daily basis.”
Cook & James launched a rebranding initiative in 2018 and has added members to its business development and marketing team since.
“We couldn’t be more excited to bring Frances on board,” said Heather James, co-founding partner at Cook & James. “She commands a high degree of respect in legal circles and fits in perfectly with our culture. Everybody loves working with Frances, clients and colleagues alike.”
McKinney most recently served as an attorney with Weissman, PC. She has worked at both large and small firms, owned her own firm, and been a consultant.
