Top best E Lawyers in Roswell | 340 available

I specialize in criminal defense. I have never practiced any other type of law and, honestly, I don’t think I ever will. My mom always tells me that ever since I was young, I hated seeing anyone being picked on and I would immediately jump to their defense. My disdain for bullies has turned into my passion for protecting people’s rights and fighting for justice. Regardless of guilt or innocence, in my opinion, each person deserves to be treated with decency and respect. Nothing is more upsetting to me than watching prosecutors take advantage of vulnerable people. Which is why I believe it is my job to make sure that police and prosecutors are lawfully doing their jobs.. My clients trust me because they know I am 100% on their side and I am dedicated to getting the best possible outcome for them. My practice is to keep my clients informed of the status of their cases. I like to discuss defense strategies and get input from my clients because I want my clients to be involved in their defense and be comfortable with the way their case is being handled. I’m not the kind of attorney that does what I think is best, regardless of how my client feels. I take my job very seriously because being responsible for someone else’s freedom is no joke. If you are looking for an experienced criminal defense attorney, who will protect you and fight for your freedom, your search is over. I am here to help.

I offer experience, professionalism, and satisfactory results. As a former prosecutor of felonies and misdemeanors, I have worked as lead counsel on thousands of criminal cases and trained with police officers and prosecutors across the State. I am well equipped to handle all cases on your behalf. I am experienced in DUIs, drug possession cases, domestic violence, and traffic cases.

I have had a successful general, family oriented, sole-practice for over 25 years where I have represented thousands of clients charged with criminal misdemeanor and felony charges (including Murder). In the last 5 years though, I have broadened my areas of practice to include more personal injury cases, and family law cases (divorce and child custody/support), contract disputes, and some collections work. With that said, civil litigation (domestic and personal injury) is the direction that I am most interested in going, but I will always have a strong criminal defense background should the need arise.. In a nutshell, I am a passionate and intense, intuitive but realistic, case strategist with a gift of insight which allows me to find creative and often unique ways to either “win” or at least positively “benefit” my clients in plea negotiations, at trial, and/or on appeal. I have strong research and writing skills, a background in psychology, mediation, negotiation, and over 25 years of litigation and appellate experience. In court, I present a well-prepared, organized, confident, professional, and common-sense demeanor that gives me a certain credibility that jurors easily relate to and/or identify with. Out of court, I am a more light-hearted, relaxed, fun-loving and devoted friend, husband, and father of 4 children between the ages of 5 and 16 years of age.

I have dedicated myself entirely to the practice of criminal defense.  My first job was with the Public Defender's Office.  There is no better place to start for someone that wants to be a skilled criminal trial lawyer.. I spent almost two years in Lumpkin, Towns, Union and White Counties defending people in Superior Court.  I defended people charged with simple misdemeanors, DUIs, drugs offenses, and serious felony matters.. After my time in Enotah I was recruited by the Public Defender's Office in the Northeastern Circuit.  I represented clients in that circuit for drug crimes, probation violations, felony matters, and misdeeanors.  During my time as a Assistant Public Defender I represented hundres of clients in all tyes of cases.  I was able to learn how to defend a case and I was able to help people at the same time.. I have now moved to private practice but I bring the same zeal and passion to criminal defense as I always have.  I am proud to help people during crisis, and helping people when they need it is as fufilling as ever.

I am an attorney committed to providing aggressive, compassionate and efficient legal representation to individuals throughout Georgia facing criminal actions. I have successfully defended many clients facing a variety of charges including felonies such as drug and sex offenses and misdemeanors such as DUI's, theft, and traffic citations.  I believe that just because you are charged with a crime, does not mean you are guilty.  I strive to ensure my clients' rights are protected and that their voice is heard.. Facing criminal charges can be the most stressful and daunting experience of anyone's life. It doesn't matter where you come from, what you do, or what has happened - my firm and I are here to help. Every client is special and requires special attention. At Chehimi Law, we are dedicated to providing you with custom representation - that fits what you and your case need. We strive to be the light at the end of the tunnel for all of our clients regardless of what you are facing; we are in this together to get you through it.

I am a technology attorney skilled in the art of patent and trademark prosecution, design-around analysis, infringement, non-infringement and invalidity analysis, and drafting and negotiating complex technology agreements, license agreements, supply agreements and software and service agreements. Beyond my extensive conventional IP experience, I attained degrees in both engineering and accounting. In connection with the latter, I extended my education with graduate work and successfully obtained a CPA designation. I started my working career as a practicing engineer. Later, I worked with management to consult on tax matters and conduct financial audits while working at large accounting firms. These experiences not only allowed me to work closely with corporate management, but also to examine complex legal issues with a more complete business perspective. In sum, I am able to assist corporate management in making business decisions in light of legal issues, instead of merely making legal recommendations in light of business issues.Specialties:IP Portfolio Management, IP enforcement and defense, patent and trademark prosecution, intellectual property counseling, complex contract drafting and negotiating, invalidity and infringement analysis and general legal and technology counseling.

I am a pure criminal defense attorney and I take great pride in that fact. Even before law school, my goal was to become one of the best criminal defense attorneys of my time. I realized that goal was achievable the very first time I stepped into a courtroom because advocating for my client gave me a true sense of purpose. Since then, my passion for helping people and defending them against the government continues to grow every day. To me, standing up for a person, who is being prosecuted by the government, is the most honorable act. I truly care about my clients and I’m not afraid to let prosecutors and judges know that.. My number one rule is that each person deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. And that is how I treat all of my clients. I will never make a client feel like they don’t matter. My clients and I review all the evidence and discuss defense strategies together because it is important to me that my clients are well informed and involved in their defense. Having a great relationship with my clients is extremely important to me, which is why I take the time to talk to my clients and build a trusting relationship from the very beginning. My clients trust me with their lives because they know that I will do everything in my power to protect them.
