About Susan Schmeidler
Susan Schmeidler Blum built an education that crosses politics, public policy and law. She earned a B.A. in political science from Columbia University, followed by a J.D. from Georgia State University College of Law. She also holds a Master of Public Administration in public policy from New York University. The mix of schools and disciplines gave her a broad view of how law and policy intersect in everyday life.
She began her legal career in Georgia after completing law school. Over the years she worked at Ginsberg Law Offices and later at Blum Law Office, LLC. Those roles put her in the middle of routine and complex matters that come before state courts and administrative agencies. Colleagues describe her as pragmatic and steady; clients have relied on her to explain options and next steps in clear terms.
Her professional associations reflect an interest in bankruptcy practice. She is a current member of NACBA, listed as the National Association of Bankruptcy Lawyers on her membership record. That affiliation keeps her connected to peers who handle insolvency, consumer relief and related litigation across the country. She has used those contacts to stay current on developments in bankruptcy procedure and consumer protections.
Blum’s practice has often involved client counseling, case management and courtroom appearances. She has handled filings and courtroom work typical of solo and small-firm practices, carrying cases from intake through disposition. Her background in public policy informs how she assesses the broader consequences of individual cases, especially where regulation or government programs play a part.
In the office she balances paperwork and client calls with the kind of legal research that underpins litigation and filings. Her academic training in political science and public administration surfaces when cases touch on statutory or administrative issues, and it shapes how she frames arguments for judges and opposing counsel. She is comfortable drafting pleadings, working with trustees and navigating local court procedures.
She practices in Georgia and has built a local network of court clerks, trustees and fellow attorneys. That network supports the practical work of resolving cases efficiently. She currently practices in Georgia, handling bankruptcy-related matters and consumer insolvency cases.
