Facing a Georgia Criminal or DUI charge?
Faced with criminal or DUI charge in the greater Atlanta area is a serious issue. The potential consequences of a criminal or DUI charge are often life-changing and far reaching. Criminal prosecutors are aggressive, and have extensive resources at their disposal. For example the average State Attorney’s Office is essentially a law firm with over 600 attorneys, plus investigators and staff. Whether you face misdemeanor or felony criminal charges in Atlanta and the surrounding areas or face a charge of DUI in Atlanta or the suburbs, you need a highly trained Georgia criminal lawyer on your side to protect your rights at all times and aggressively defend you at every turn. You can start getting your questions about Georgia area criminal defense and DUI defense right now by contacting us anytime.
Consequences of a Criminal Conviction
A conviction for virtually any criminal offense, whether classified as a misdemeanor or a felony, may have disastrous effects. Depending on the particular offense, you may face imprisonment in a county or state correctional facility, heavy fines, restitution to the victim, probation, community service, driver’s license suspension, court-ordered counseling, drug or alcohol treatment, sex offender registration, and possibly more. These penalties alone can result in financial ruin, an irreparably damaged reputation and years spent away from friends and family.
A defendant convicted of a criminal offense also faces a difficult future due to his or her criminal record. Finding and maintaining employment is a challenge, and a criminal record may also limit housing and financial opportunities, as well as interfere with basic civil rights such as the right to vote, own or legally possess a firearm, and even may require lifetime registration as a sex offender.
In view of these disastrous consequences, it is easy to see why a knowledgeable legal counselor is so important to the outcome of your case and your future. You must discuss your charges and concerns with a legal professional capable of an honest, no-nonsense assessment. You can find that help at The Awad Law Firm, P.C.
But why choose The Awad Law Firm, P.C.?
It’s about you, not us. Yes, we do a great job for our clients and take great pride in our work in Atlanta area criminal and DUI cases. Yes, we have worked on the other side, and have the experience prosecuting cases. But our philosophy is manifest by defending the accused and not prosecuting them. By understanding how the prosecution works, we excel in defending people just like you against even the toughest charges throughout various counties in the Georgia courts.
But the truth is, our practice is focused on you – working to achieve your goals, make sure you are cared for and that your problems are resolved with an eye towards dealing with the consequences that keep you up at night. We live to hear the words “not guilty”, but with every case, we tailor our approach carefully to meet the needs of our clients. After all, in our office, your needs and objectives come first. Even better, we have a first rate reception staff that is friendly, knowledgable and helpful. Your calls will always be returned, usually within one hour, but never more than 24 hours later.
Expungement and Record Restriction
The law about expungement, now called Record Restriction, has recently changed, and we at The Awad Law Firm, P.C. are all over it. Since July 1, 2013, we have been able to expunge/restrict several cases for our clients. Clients who have been falsely arrested and had their case dismissed are still harmed when employers can still pull up their arrest records. With our knowledge of the law, we can remove that arrest cycle and ultimately help you in the process of applying for a job or getting housing.
