Default Recommend shop for brakes

Hi all,

Have 2006 IS 250, where the car shakes softly (like almost in a back and forth motion, but I'm sure just feels that way) when braking. Much more noticeable on higher speeds.

Want to go check it out and get new brakes if needed.

Can anyone recommend a shop in Atlanta, GA area? For brakes and also for any future maintenance work - dealer seems expensive, and always seems to tell me to do work that doesn't really seem like I need to...

Thanks.
