Our young college student client made a serious mistake one night. But, we believe a young person's bad judgement doesn't have to mean life-altering, career-damaging legal consequences, even while being held accountable. Though it wasn't easy, in the end, we got our client a second chance - not only will they avoid a DUI conviction, but they have a chance to avoid any conviction altogether. Read On

The decision whether to try and suppress evidence of Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus, or let a jury watch a skilled defense attorney cross-up the investigating officer, is one of trial strategy and not always easy to make. Our most recent case was an instance where it was better to get this otherwise problematic evidence out of the way before trial. Read On

Our client was arrested for DUI and Hit and Run. But she claimed her drink had been spiked. We had her blood tested and sure enough, the presence of Gamma Hydroxybutyrate (GHB) was indicated. We acquired her medical records, took the affidavits of two emergency room doctors, and got her case dismissed and her record expunged. This saved her the humiliation, stress, and cost of a jury trial. Read On

There's more to getting a DUI reduced or dismissed than picking apart the facts of the case, or hunting for favorable case law. We can do that. But sometimes a person needs a lawyer who can persuade a prosecutor or judge of the equities of the case - that some people are deserving of another chance. We can do that, too. And that's just what we did in this recent case in Smyrna, Georgia. Read On

It's not scary this Halloween when you have us by your side. We worked this case long and hard to get our client's DUI charge reduced to a NO POINT violation and NO PROBATION. Granted, we had help from a police officer who was overly aggressive and wrong on the law. But we made sure to educate the prosecution on the law as they related to the facts of our client's case. And it was all treat - no trick - when we were through. Read On

COBB COUNTY, GEORGIA - We started working on this case before the COVID-19 crisis. And, as soon as the Court started hearing non-essential cases again, we were ready. Of course, this matter was hardly non-essential to our client. And on their behalf, we filed and successfully obtained a modification of their prior felony sentence. Their conditions have been changed in a way that is fair, just, and makes their life a bit better and easier. Read On

One key factor to getting a good result in a Georgia Administrative License Suspension (ALS) hearing before the Office of State Administrative Hearings, even on a DUI Refusal with an accident, is being proactive and communicating with the arresting officers. Even during the novel coronavirus pandemic, we worked hard to lay the groundwork for this hearing and it paid off with a favorable result. Read On

When we sifted through the evidence in this case, it appeared the stop was problematic.
