Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Georgia

So I was recently banned from a mall by security guards for not showing them my ID to show I was over 18 for their "youth escort policy" on the weekends(i am over 18). I didn't show the id because I left it at a store one I work and have worked for around half a year.

Now I cannot return to work because of this. I have had problems with these security persons before as have other people I work with. I went to talk to attorney but he just brushed me off telling me there was he could do.

Is this really right I can't go back to work because some of their employees have some kind of personal grudge with me ? Talked to their boss about it but its obvious he is going to believe them over me.

You talked to a lawyer, presumably in detail, so a website based on a few sentences won't get you better advice. We also don't know the real, whole story you are leaving out. You also fail to tell us why you can't go to work, but if it was truly an ongoing problem with security, any employer in the mall would handle it on behalf of the employees. Again, a missing part of the story. Since many facts are missing, most likely for a reason, you'll have to accept that there is no general right to go on private property when told you are banned.
