After fighting on behalf of indigent clients as a Public Defender early in my career, I am currently working alongside attorney George Creal in all matters criminal and civil.  Though only 34 years old, I've have already tried dozens of criminal cases, felony and misdemeanor alike.  My felony cases tried before a jury consist of murder charges, armed burglary, armed robbery, and drug trafficking.  Additionally, I have tried assault and battery cases plus smaller level felony drug and property offense cases.  Most of my misdemeanor cases consist of DUI charges, some with a breath test and some without.  I have also tried felony and misdemeanor cases before various judges in juveniles courts.  An overwhelming majority of my cases have resulted in either an outright acquittal or a guilty to a lesser charge.  Additionally, I have filed and/or argued over 200 motions to suppress in felony and misdemeanor cases.  A number of these motions resulted in the dismissal of my client's case, including a dismissal for trafficking in cocaine and a dismissal of an armed robbery case.  Lastly, I have taken over 1,300 depositions of state witnesses in different types of felony and misdemeanor cases.  In addition to police officers and detectives, these have ranged from eye witnesses to expert witnesses.  I have deposed expert witnesses the fields of  DUI, drug recognition, ballistics, fingerprints, and DNA.  My goal is to make sure I am more informed than the judge, prosecutor, and witnesses about the facts of my case each time I step into a courtroom.  I will always allow for a free consultation, so please don't hesitate to call me if you are in need a defense attorney who will bend over backwards for you.

After being raised in Roswell, Georgia, I attended Hofstra University in New York.  While at Hofstra I majored in Political Science and during my final year had the opportunity to work for The United States Attorney's Office in Washington D.C.  It was there, while working in the Homicide/Major Crimes Division, that my interest and passion for Law was born.  In those early days I learned imperative skills and tools when not only attacking a criminal case, but also claim handling that I still use in practice today.. After graduation, I returned home and attended Mercer where I obtained my Law degree.  While at Mercer I worked for The Witterman Firm, a small Roswell firm with a specialty in Business and Construction Law.  I also clerked for Hill, Kertscher, and Wharton, where I worked on specialized civil matters in the areas of Intellectual Property, Employment, Corporate Shareholder disputes, and Workers Compensation.. I was also provided a "behind the scenes" look at the operation of both the criminal and civil systems when I had the opportunity to work for The Honorable Judge Ben Studdard at Henry County State Court.  While there, I was able to view and participate in the interworkings of everything from DUI's to speeding tickets, to landlord tenant disputes to breach of contract from the Judge's chambers!. For 7 years I  worked as an Insurance Defense attorney where I became an expert in both insurance defense and workplace injuries, while fine tuning my Criminal Law practice.. In 2013 Benzine Law Group, LLC was born.  We specialize in all types of workers compensation accidents and criminal arrests. When you call Benzine Law Group, you will not be diverted to a paralegal or assistant.  Experience has proven that the fastest and best results come when the client works directly with thier attorney.. Whether you have had the unfortunate event of an arrest and need criminal representation or have been injured at work, I am here to help.  Call me today for a free consultation.

A family law case impacts the most personal and fundamental aspects of a client’s life. A person’s life savings, children, and future are all affected by how their case is managed and resolved. As a result, it is imperative that an attorney carefully considers a client’s legal and personal interests throughout representation. Striking this balance is central to Amanda Roy’s approach to the practice of family law.. Amanda Roy graduated magna cum laude from Georgia State University College of Law and cum laude from the University of North Georgia with a Bachelor of Arts degree in history and minors in Spanish and political science. Amanda also gained valuable hands-on experience interning with the Honorable Alison Toller of Hall County Juvenile Court, mediating cases in Fulton County Landlord-Tenant Court, and researching children’s rights with Professor Jonathan Todres. Prior to law school, Amanda acted as a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA), where she advocated in court for the best interests of abused and neglected children.

She has assisted clients with issues involving family and juvenile law since 2014 – first as file clerk, then as a legal assistant, and now as an attorney.. Amanda approaches every case with the goal of helping clients reach their desired resolution in a manner that best suits each client’s needs. She is acutely aware how that a client’s life frequently involves the opposing party long after a case ends – such as co-parents sharing graduations, weddings, and even grandchildren in the future. Above all, Amanda’s goal is to minimize a client’s stress by handling the legal side of a case while a client can focus on the important transition within their family.. In her free time, Amanda enjoys spending time in the mountains with her husband, hiking with her Australian Shepherd, and cooking.

25 years practicing, licensed in New York and Georgia.. After a long stint in prosecution, I started my law practice a short time after my grandmother passed away without a will.  She died of dementia, Alzheimer's Disease, which is the 6th leading cause of death for seniors claiming more lives than breast cancer and prostate cancer combined.  I was called to educate the community and help families avoid the tension and turmoil that ebbs from not planning the inevitable. Estate planning is not for you but for the loved ones you leave behind.  Give your loved ones the gift of a lifetime legacy and peace of mind by preparing your estate plan before it is too late.. My role is to guide you in designing your personalized Love Legacy.  I will help you protect your assets while you are alive and transfer them to your loved ones when you are gone.  I prepare all Estate Planning documents including Last Wills & Testaments, Living Wills, Ethical Wills or Letters of Intent, Revocable and Irrevocable Trusts, Health care Directives & Powers of Attorney as well as provide assistance in obtaining Guardianship and Letters of Administration to probate the estate of your loved ones who died without a will.  My probate litigation experience is an added bonus...I don't have to refer you to another attorney like other estate lawyers do.

.. I worked multiple jobs while putting myself through college and law school.  Looking back, it was the best experience I could have had.  There were plenty of opportunities to interact and befriend people from all walks of life and that has molded me into the person - and attorney - that I am today.. The experience of working and going to school led me to ultimately decide to start my own practice because I am comfortable handling a great deal of responsibilty.. Now that my focus is on building my practice, I am excited about the endless possibilities to set myself apart from other firms, especially in the areas of client contact and being hands on. My existing clients have seen the difference and they have given me the appreciation and encouragement which has enabled me to strike out on my own and I could not be more grateful.. At the Law Office of Tammy M. Holcomb, LLC, helping clients is about more than one a time interaction. It's about relationship building.
