Fighting All Types of Criminal Charges
Both of our attorneys are former public defenders with experience defending clients against a wide range of criminal charges. If you've been charged with any Georgia criminal offense, we can help. Among the charges we handle most often are:
- DUI / drunk driving: If you've been charged with DUI, you have 10 days to request a hearing to protect your driver's license. We can get your case on the right track.
- Drug possession: Our attorneys are familiar with all the strategies for defending clients against charges of simple drug possession and possession with intent to distribute.
- Traffic violations: Paying a traffic ticket to make it go away can result in serious fines and insurance rate increases. You have options when it comes to fighting traffic charges.
- Violent crimes: If you've been charged with assault, battery, domestic violence, armed robbery or any other violent crime, it is important to call a defense attorney right away.
- Theft and property crimes: We defend clients against charges such as theft, burglary and robbery. We understand the law and the defenses that exist.
We also represent clients at bond hearings. If you have a family member or associate in jail, we can ask the court to set bond or reduce the bail amount.
Prepared to Do Whatever Is Best for You
Our experienced trial lawyers are fully prepared to stand up for your rights in court. At the same time, we will explain all of your options to you, including the possibility of negotiating for reduced charges and other plea bargain agreements.
Sometimes, fighting a criminal charge can be more costly and stressful than making a plea bargain. We will give you accurate advice, but ultimately, your decisions belong to you.
