Biography
Shea Evans Roberts is a Democratic member of the Georgia House of Representatives representing District 52, which includes parts of Sandy Springs, Buckhead, Brookhaven, and Dunwoody in Fulton and DeKalb counties. A Georgia native who split her childhood between Dalton and farm towns in California, she is an attorney, small business owner, licensed Realtor, and mother of three children in a blended family. She started her own law firm in 2002, later merging it into a boutique practice focused on land use and real estate issues.
Education and Political Experience
Specific educational details are not detailed in available records. Roberts was first elected in 2020, narrowly flipping the Fulton County district blue by 377 votes—its first Democratic win since 2004—and reelected in 2022 after redistricting made it more favorable to Democrats.
She serves on the Judiciary Non-Civil, Governmental Affairs, and State Planning and Community Affairs Committees, and was elected Treasurer of the Georgia House Democratic Caucus for the 2023-2025 term. Notable achievements include passing bipartisan legislation in her first term to reduce litigation costs for local governments in land use cases. She advocates for fair elections, reproductive freedom, gun safety, healthcare access, education, economic growth, criminal justice reform, and climate responsibility, while working across the aisle where possible.
