About Kate
Kate Karassik took a steady path through higher education before entering the bar. She earned a Bachelor of Arts from Georgia State University in 2004 and later completed her J.D. at Atlanta's John Marshall Law School in 2019. Those formal milestones bookend a period of professional and personal development that preceded her law practice.
Her legal training at Atlanta's John Marshall Law School overlapped an era of change in the legal profession. She left law school with a degree in hand and the credentials to practice in Georgia. The record shows her admitted to the Georgia bar and practicing under that jurisdiction.
Karassik practices at Van Sant Law LLC. Her work there involves counseling clients and managing the practical steps that a case requires. She handles client interviews, prepares filings and briefs, and appears where necessary to advocate on behalf of those she represents. The daily work demands both attention to detail and the ability to explain complex issues in plain language.
Colleagues say Karassik brings a methodical approach to problem solving. She breaks down issues into manageable parts, identifies options, and communicates potential outcomes so clients can make informed decisions. That methodical stance shows up in how she prepares matters for filing and in how she parses opposing arguments.
Within the Georgia legal community she is known for steady courtroom presence and for thorough preparation. She draws on her education and hands-on experience at the firm to manage cases from intake through resolution. Those tasks include negotiating settlements, drafting pleadings, and coordinating with experts when cases require technical analysis.
Outside of casework, Karassik maintains ties to the local legal scene through continuing education and professional contacts. She keeps current on changes to state law and procedure and applies that information to everyday client problems. Her practice reflects an emphasis on practical solutions rather than on novelty.
Today she is an attorney at Van Sant Law LLC, where she represents clients under Georgia law. Her current practice focuses on serving individuals and entities through her work at Van Sant Law LLC.
