DUI Defense
DUIs are some of the most common yet devastating criminal charges in Georgia. Not only can you face jail time and probation if convicted, your license can be suspended for up to one year for refusing the state-administered testing.
Although DUIs are very serious offenses and carry with them stiff penalties and sentences in Georgia, there are several ways our competent attorney can advocate for you and help save you from a possible license suspension, and conviction. If you are charged with a DUI, it’s imperative that you consult with an experienced DUI attorney.
Defense of Traffic Citations
Traffic citations can have serious consequences, ranging from fines to loss or suspension of a driver’s license, to an increase in insurance premiums and sometimes incarceration. Traffic violations in Georgia are usually considered to be a misdemeanor. Unfortunately, many people will plead guilty to these misdemeanors even when they are innocent because they feel it is easier and quicker to just pay the fine. It is important to remember that in addition to a fine, for every traffic violation for which you are found guilty there is the likely possibility of an increase in insurance premiums as well as points being assessed against your license. Points add up quickly, and if enough are accumulated, it can result in your license being suspended or revoked.
We help Georgia motorists with legal representation with the following types of traffic tickets and violations:
- Commercial Driver Licenses-CDL
- Drivers Under the Age of 21
- Speeding Tickets
- Georgia Super Speeder
- Red light violations
- Stop sign violations
- No insurance
- Suspended License
- Suspended registration
- Failure to appear and Warrants.
Shoplifting and Theft Defense
Georgia prosecutors take shoplifting and theft charges seriously. If you are convicted, you could face jail time and steep fines. If you have been accused of theft it is critical you understand your rights before speaking with law enforcement. Whether or not the act of shoplifting is considered a misdemeanor or felony depends on the value of the item(s) stolen. Working with a defense lawyer on your theft or shoplifting charge can help minimize the negative impact of the crime on your life, including lessening the opportunity for conviction.
