Finding yourself on the wrong side of the law can occur very easily in today’s climate. We understand that good people sometimes find themselves in difficult situations. Facing a criminal charge is one of the most difficult things you will ever deal with. You do not know where to turn or what to do. The punishment for many crimes can change your life, leaving you with a criminal record or worse, deportation if you are an immigrant. Even minor charges can have a grave impact on your life. If you are facing criminal charges, do not procrastinate and do nothing at all. Hiring an experienced criminal defense attorney as early in the process as possible often leads to the best resolution of the case. If you or a loved one has been accused of a crime, call us today to evaluate your options. We can assist with:
A few offenses falling under this classification include, but are not limited to:
Aggravated Assault:
A person commits aggravated assault when they attempt to cause violent injury upon another or engage in conduct that produces this result; a conviction may result in 1 to 20 years in prison.
Aggravated Battery:
This offense occurs when a person maliciously causes another to lose a body part or render it useless or they seriously disfigure someone. If they are convicted, a court can sentence them to a maximum of 20 years in prison.
Aggravated Stalking:
Anyone who, in violation of an order or bond, follows another to harass or intimidate them may be charged with this crime. A conviction can result in imprisonment for 1 to 10 years and a maximum fine of $10,000.
Burglary:
This crime is committed when a person unlawfully enters or remains in a structure with the intent to commit a felony or theft therein. A person convicted of first-degree burglary may be sentenced to 1 to 20 years in prison. A second-degree burglary conviction may result in imprisonment for 1 to 5 years.
Possession of a Schedule I or II Drug:
Anyone who has on their person a Schedule I or II controlled substance may be charged with a crime. Depending on the amount of the drug, they could face anywhere from 1 to 15 years in prison.
DUI:
Penalties for DUI convictions can be life-changing. First- and second-time DUI convictions include mandatory jail time, fines up to $1,000 plus court costs, mandatory community service and suspension of your driver’s license. Penalties for a third DUI conviction include even higher fines and increased jail time, suspension of your driver’s license for five years and being declared a habitual violator (HV). Simply driving with HV status in Georgia is a felony. A DUI arrest for a driver with HV status can result in prison time, substantial fines and lifelong status as a convicted felon.
Traffic:
Traffic tickets are no small matter. Depending on the severity of the violation, a traffic citation can cost you thousands of dollars over the course of a few years. Fighting a traffic ticket can save you significant money in fines and increased insurance rates while keeping points off of your Georgia driver’s license. In some cases, you can also have your license suspended.
Other Cases Types:
- Probation
- Warrants
- Post Convictions
- Appeals
