About Valerie
Valerie Long earned a B.B.A. in Business Administration and Finance from Augusta State University, completing her degree in 1989 after beginning studies there in 1986. Her academic training combined business and finance courses with practical coursework aimed at preparing students for professional roles outside the classroom.
She entered the legal profession in 1994 and has practiced in Georgia since that time. Early in her career she moved into private practice and eventually established a practice under her own name. That decision shaped the next decades of her work and anchored her in the local legal community.
Long’s career has been steady. She maintains current professional memberships and remains active in the networks that support practice in the state. Over the years she has handled a variety of client matters, representing individuals and businesses on issues that arise in a state court setting and in related transactional work. Her approach is pragmatic: she assesses the facts, explains the options, and pursues the course a client chooses.
Her office is listed as Valerie Long, Lawyer at Law. She manages the operations of that office and coordinates client intake, case preparation, and representation. Colleagues and clients who work with an attorney operating a small or solo practice often describe a hands-on style, where the attorney handles many aspects of a matter directly rather than passing them through layers of staff.
Long’s professional life reflects continuity rather than frequent moves. She has kept a practice in Georgia since the mid-1990s and has built relationships that support casework across the state. She continues to accept new matters and to provide counsel and representation through her office. She currently practices at Valerie Long, Lawyer at Law, handling client matters throughout Georgia.
