Firm History

McCurdy & Candler was formed in 1951 by the late Julius A. McCurdy and the late Scott Candler, Jr. In 1955 the firm name was changed to McCurdy, Candler and Harris with the addition of J. Robin Harris as a partner. The firm name reverted to McCurdy & Candler in 1974 when Mr. Harris became President and later Chairman of Decatur Federal Savings and Loan Association, a long-time and major client of the firm prior to its merger with First Union National Bank.

McCurdy & Candler, LLC conducts a general business practice law firm with an emphasis in real estate and mortgage banking law. Aside from traditional services such as civil litigation, corporate law, estate planning and probate, and business transactions, the firm conducts a comprehensive mortgage default practice (from foreclosure to REO closings, as well as title curative services) for its clients throughout the entire states of Georgia and Tennessee. The Firm maintains an "AV" rating in the Martindale-Hubbell legal directory. Our attorneys not only maintain the minimum continuing legal education requirements of bar membership, but each attorney also attends mortgage banking, business and real estate related conferences and seminars to keep on top of current trends and developments in the law. Members of the firm are frequent speakers in their fields of practice, active leaders in local and state bar associations and active participants and leaders in civic and governmental organizations.
