Has anyone in and around Atlanta used Car Charger Specialists for their NEMA and charger mount install? Do you have a recommendation on who to use for this? Thank you!

Pretty much any electrician ought to be able to install. Especially if you are simply putting in, for example, a NEMA 14-50 plug (that you plug your "charger" into). Just ask the electrician to be sure to use an EV rated plug such as a Hubbard (a little heavier duty). To be honest, you don't even have to use the words "EV charger" w/ the electrician: just say NEMA 14-50 heavy duty. A good locale is near the garage door so you have the option to charge outside as well as inside with a 25 foot cord

Agreed. Any electrician is able to perform the work and you don't need a "charger specialist". Probably the biggest challenges/questions are:
* Do you have room in your panel for the 50 Amp breaker?
* How far is it from the panel to the place where you need the charger?

Depending your situation, if you're doing a garage install, I would recommend putting the NEMA 14-50 *and* charger on the ceiling. It keeps the cord up off the floor and can more easily reach all corners of car, in case you want to charge something other than a Taycan someday.
