About Samantha O.
Samantha O. Lennon built her legal foundation at Vanderbilt University, where she earned a B.A. in English and History in 2009. She went on to Emory University School of Law and received her J.D. in 2013. Those years set the stage for a career rooted in courtroom procedure and client advocacy.
Her first post-graduate position was as a law clerk at the Henry County Superior Court in 2013. The clerkship exposed her to the day-to-day realities of family law litigation and the workings of a state trial court. She moved into private practice two years later and joined Stern & Edlin Family Law, P.C. in 2015. A year after that she worked at Hunter, Weinstein & Somerstein, L.L.C., gaining more experience in contested family matters and custodial disputes.
In 2020 Lennon became a partner at Heredia & Lennon Family Law, LLC. That role expanded her responsibilities beyond casework. She handled client intake, drafted pleadings, and appeared in hearings across the state. In 2023 she took a partner position at Lennon, Giovinazzo & Steele Family Law, LLC. The move represented the latest step in a steady progression from court clerk to firm leadership.
Her practice has centered on family law and divorce. Over the years she has handled property division, custody hearings, spousal support negotiations, and temporary relief motions. She frequently represents clients in contested divorces and in matters where parental time and decision-making are in dispute. Her courtroom experience from the clerkship onward informs how she prepares cases and advises clients.
Lennon maintains current membership in professional legal associations and participates in local bar activities. Colleagues describe her as pragmatic in the courtroom and thorough in case preparation. She has worked in both solo and firm environments, which has given her perspective on the operational side of running a family law practice as well as the substantive law.
Her office history reflects steady geographical practice in Georgia courts. She has handled matters from initial filings through trial and post-judgment proceedings. That continuity has allowed her to develop working relationships with judges, mediators, and fellow counsel across multiple counties.
She continues to practice family and divorce law in Georgia. Her current work is concentrated on representing clients in divorce proceedings, custody disputes, and related family court matters.
