Our advice as to who you decide who to hire as your Cobb County DUI Attorney:  1) Don’t hire an Attorney based solely on price; Sometimes the cheapest lawyer can be the most expensive especially if a lawyer charges only $1000 but only spends an hour on your case-we spend an average of 10 hours on every DUI case without a jury - cost per hour is the best way to compare lawyers; 2)  Ask any attorney that you speak with whether he/she has tried any DUI jury trials and how many not guilty verdicts he/she has received in the past 2 years; 3)  Ask any attorney that you speak with whether he/she has the police field sobriety training manuals so the police officer can be questioned properly on the witness stand; and (4) Ask if the lawyer has ever tried and won a breath test case and if he has the breath test operator and Area Supervisor Breath Test Training manuals.  A DUI lawyer who can't answer these questions is not ready for a real DUI jury trial.

We are here to help.  Call TODAY (770) 961-5511 or email us at firm@georgialawyer.com to review your case.
