Depending on details we don't have from your post, you may be able to file in Georgia. A lawyer needs to examine two things - where you CAN file, and whether either jurisdiction would pose problems as to a paticular case. Feel free to contact me with details at 404-768-3509 as to what would be involved in filing in Georgia.
