Practice Areas: DUI & DWI

Although my practice consists of both criminal trial work and Civil trial Work our firm focuses on DUI defense as evidenced by my focus and training below. I began my apprenticeship under the family law firm in Dunwoody, Georgia. Initially, that law firm familiarized me with concepts under Debt Collection, Contracts and Agreements, Family Law and Real Estate. After working at the family firm for 20 years, as first a legal assistant and then an attorney, I decided to go out on my own. I obtained a position with the City of Atlanta Municipal Court and that foray into criminal law led to my criminal expertise including almost exclusively traffic, DUI and drug cases. As a legal assistant, former prosecutor and now a defense attorney I have spent alot of time in the courtroom. As a Defense attorney I am extremely dedicated to my clients which makes my practice so unique and sought after (including a 24 hour contact line).            Both before and after completing law school and passing the bar I received a lot of experience first hand as a legal assistant and then defense attorney. During that time I obtained my Standardized Field Sobriety training and my Advanced Roadside impaired driving enforcement training from the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration.  After spending 3 years fighting for people's rights I thought that I should learn how the other side works their cases so that I could better prepare as a defense attorney. At that point, I spent the next 3 years with the City of Atlanta Solicitor's/Prosecutor office in the special DUI Courtroom where I prosecuted DUI and Drug offenses. As a prosecutor I learned how the other side prepares for prosecuting their cases. This is extremely helpful and useful for my clients as I have the ability to interpret what the other side is considering and thinking in regards to my clients case.. After excelling in the courtroom, I trained at the Georgia Public Safety and Training Center (GPSTC). By training at this location I was able to learn exactly what both the police and State Troopers learn to make their DUI cases. In fact, the Georgia Public Safety and Training Center is where State Troopers receive their training and where all police officers supplement their training. While training there at the police training ground I received certifications in DUI Field Sobriety Testing, and various other programs for speeding, accident and basic moving violations. After completing this training, I was invited by other county prosecutors to be a guest instructor for a DUI courses at both the Georgia Public Safety and Training Center and county locations. I also had the opportunity to design and teach a class at the Atlanta Police Department Training Center. I also assisted in redesigning the current DUI court system with the City of Atlanta Municipal Court.. Now my time is spent using my knowledge gained in defending the innocent in court against wrongful prosecution. If you’re faced with a DUI, drug, or other traffic charge it’s very important that you hire a lawyer. While you can hire any attorney wouldn’t you rather hire one who knows both sides of prosecution and defense? Wouldn’t you rather hire an attorney who not only knows the cops, but has also trained them? Wouldn’t you rather hire an attorney who has spent all night on the road working with the officers in your case? Wouldn’t you rather hire an attorney who has worked with and trained the prosecutor in your case?

We are a DUI defense law firm.  We represent drivers charged with DUI. DUI defense is one of the most complex areas of law.  Most DUI cases involve scientific evidence and questions of constitutional law.  It can be a mistake to assume you have no defense to a DUI arrest and plead guilty before speaking with an attorney.  Many DUI cases can be dismissed or reduced even before trial with the help of a knowledgeable DUI defense attorney.  In other cases, a jury trial may be your best and sometimes only option to beat a DUI.  In all cases, your attorney should prepare the case for trial to ensure the best possible outcome.. You should meet with several attorneys.  It is important you have confidence in the knowledge, skill and experience of the attorney you choose to represent you.  Keep in mind that cost, while important, should not be the determinative factor in hiring an attorney.  The cheapest attorney is usually not the least expensive attorney in the long run.. During your consultation, you should ask the following questions:. Have you tried DUI jury trials before this court?. Often attorneys take cases in courts they are unfamiliar with or in areas of law that they have little or no experience in.  A defense attorney unfamilar with a perticular court or area of law is at a disadvantage and that may affect the outcome in your case.  The defense attorney may not know of specific defenses applicable to your facts, or know about specific procedures unique to the judge who is hearing your case.  Your defense will be stronger if the prosecutor and the judge already know and respect your attorney.. What can you tell me about the arresting officer?. …the judge? …the prosecutor?. Knowing the “players” in your case will significantly increases the chance of beating a DUI.  An attorney who knows everyone involved can better gage what issues will be determinative and more accurately predict the outcome.. Have you ever won a DUI case similar to mine?. Ask about case specifics such as, if you gave a breath sample, ask if the attorney has won a breath test case?  If you have a DUI drugs case with blood test results, ask if the attorney has won a DUI drugs case with blood test results.  It is important your attorney know what it takes to win a case with your particular issues.  Be sure to ask for the court and court case number of any case cited as an example so you can confirm what you have been told.. What practice areas does your law firm handle?. To be fair, an attorney does not have to “just” practice DUI defense to be a strong DUI defense attorney, but if a large percentage of the attorney’s practice is not devoted to DUI defense, it is unlikely the attorney has the DUI specific knowledge, skill and experience necessary to win your case.. Will you be the attorney actually representing me in court?. Bait and switch is never a good thing!  Not when buying a product or retaining professional services.  You are selecting an attorney based upon your impressions during the consultation.  Make sure you are retaining the attorney who impressed you and not someone you’ll meet for the first time when they introduce themselves to you in the courtroom.. What DUI specific training do you have?. Ask the attorney to explain the standardized field sobriety evaluations, the Intoxilyzer 9000, the H.P. Gas Chromatograph (if a blood test is involved), the metabolism of alcohol in the human body, the elements of the offense(s) you are charged with, and the case law involved in the defenses available to you.  While you’re at it, consider asking why the attorney represents driver’s accused of DUI.. How do you expect to win my case?. Before you retain counsel, you should know how the attorney expects to win or resolve your case.  You should have a very clear idea of the issues, risks and likelihood of success.  If you were hiring a contractor to repair your home or a mechanic to fix your car, you would expect no less.  A DUI conviction is a serious matter.  Don’t be less careful hiring your attorney than you would be in choosing a mechanic or contractor.
