Common assignments

  • Pro hac vice coordination and local-counsel requirements
  • Georgia filings and procedural support tied to an accepted engagement
  • Local appearances, scheduling conferences, or approved litigation tasks
  • Exhibit, document, vendor, and courthouse coordination
  • Travel-intensive assignments requiring one accountable logistics channel
  • Out-of-state firms needing Georgia venue familiarity without transferring control of the case

What Peach needs to evaluate the request

  • Court, county, case number, parties, assigned judge, and complete docket posture
  • Upcoming deadlines, hearing notices, standing orders, and local requirements already identified
  • Out-of-state counsel admission status and anticipated pro hac vice materials
  • Defined responsibility for drafting, signing, filing, service, and monitoring
  • Exhibit, witness, technology, interpreter, and document-delivery requirements
  • Approved travel, lodging, parking, vendor, and expense parameters
Before you submit

Send enough nonconfidential information to identify the parties, venue, proceeding, date, expected role, urgency, and experience required. Do not send privileged strategy or sensitive personal information until conflicts and secure-transfer instructions are addressed.

Scope and expectations

Know what counsel can handle—and what still requires your direction.

Within an approved engagement

  • Coordinating accepted local-counsel and appearance responsibilities
  • Assisting with Georgia procedure and venue-specific logistics within the engagement
  • Tracking agreed filing, service, scheduling, and document-delivery tasks
  • Coordinating travel, access, exhibits, vendors, and courthouse requirements
  • Returning confirmations, receipts, outcomes, and newly created deadlines

Important limitations

  • Local counsel obligations vary by court and may create duties beyond a single appearance
  • Peach cannot guarantee admission, filing acceptance, hearing access, or judicial scheduling
  • The written engagement must allocate responsibility between local and lead counsel
  • Court rules and professional duties control if client or lead-counsel instructions conflict with counsel’s obligations

After the assignment

What the requesting firm receives

The firm receives a clear responsibility map, confirmed logistics, status updates on accepted procedural tasks, and a closing report with filings, receipts, appearance results, deadlines, and unresolved local requirements.
