Why this is illegal in Georgia

'AI lawyer' apps that write your motion, tell you what to file, or auto-generate court arguments are practicing law without a license. Consumers who paid can be made whole.

Georgia's UPL statute: O.C.G.A. § 15-19-51 to -58

Georgia makes UPL a misdemeanor and empowers the State Bar to seek injunctions and civil penalties. Notaries are separately prohibited from providing legal advice or immigration services.

Penalties in Georgia

Misdemeanor (up to 1 year and $1,000); civil penalties up to $5,000 per violation.

What you can recover

  • A full refund of every dollar you paid.
  • Statutory or civil damages under Georgia's consumer-protection laws.
  • Attorneys' fees in most cases — often no out-of-pocket cost.
  • Referral to a licensed Georgia attorney to try to fix the underlying case.
