I represent people. I don't represent banks or insurance companies or corporations. My typical client is a person that has been involved in some type of accident or collision or has been arrested and charged with DUI or other crimes.

I'm the only attorney in my office. I am independent, hard working, persistent, and determined. I attack legal problems with a sense of urgency. If I take your case, I know what needs to be done, I know how to do it, and I get it done. I've represented thousands of people over the last 28 years. I know what I'm doing. If an unfamiliar issue comes up in a case, I don't pretend to know what I'm doing; I get a specialist involved.

My staff and I are obsessed with having unparalleled communication skills. At least once a week, every week, someone from my office calls every single client to give her/him an update on the case and to address any questions or concerns. Every single client has my personal mobile number and my email address, and every single client knows he/she can call me or text me or email me anytime, any day, seven days a week.

My representation is fully transparent. Upon request, every single client has online access to everything in her/his file 24/7. My fee structure is in writing and is fully transparent. There are no hidden fees or expenses. I treat people like I would want to be treated.

I represent every person with the goal of exceeding his/her expectations. I am the antithesis of the greedy, gimmicky, mega law firm that spends millions of dollars on billboard and TV commercial advertisements. I believe that law is an honorable profession, not a circus side show.

I love what I do. I cannot imagine spending my time any differently that the way I spend it now, practicing law and helping people.

Top 100 Criminal Defense Lawyers in Georgia

American Society of Legal Advocates

2016

ASLA’s exclusive membership comprises less than 1.5% of all licensed lawyers nationwide. ASLA is both highly selective in extending invitations and in determining which specialties to include for a given state. Because many specialties typically include listings for Top 100 Lawyers and Top 40 Lawyers Under 40, in order to remain selective we ensure that each specialty in a state has a sufficient number of practicing lawyers to merit inclusion. Those states with relatively low populations of practicing lawyers often will support only one or two specialties. ASLA monitors practice trends from year to year prior to extending invitations in each state.

Q. I rear-ended somebody. Other driver took off. My car is totalled. I was cited for FTC. Can I have charge dismissed?

June 24, 2016

A: There is no way to answer your specific question with any degree of certainty because we do not have enough information. If there were no other witnesses besides you and the other driver, and assuming you have not incriminated yourself, the prosecutor will not be able to prove your guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. In that event, you would be acquitted, which is not the same as the case being dismissed but is effectively a win nonetheless. I disagree with Ms. Rice that the damage to your car should be covered under your uninsured motorists coverage. Uninsured motorist insurance is a matter of contract between you and your insurer and applies when the tortfeasor (the AT-FAULT motorist) is uninsured or underinsured. Here, you were the at-fault driver, so your uninsured motorist insurance will not apply. However, if you had no liability insurance and the other driver had uninsured motorist insurance, the other driver could make a claim for uninsured motorist insurance benefits. Think of uninsured motorist insurance like you are buying liability insurance for the uninsured driver. My website is www.statesboroaccidentlawyer.com. ... Read More

Q. I am seeking advice on specific case regarding a serious injury and first time offense of a car wreck.

June 24, 2016

A: Serious injury by vehicle is a felony. Your boyfriend needs to hire the best criminal defense lawyer he can afford, and follow that lawyer's advice. Quickly. The criminal case against your boyfriend is the state of Georgia versus your boyfriend, and the state of Georgia (through the District Attorney) is the one who gets to decide who to charge, which charges to file, and which charges not to file. If he hasn't already notified his liability insurer, he needs to do so IMMEDIATELY.

Q. My gf got in a wreck while driving on suspended license but was cited for not having license on her. She paid ticket..

June 24, 2016

A: By "report," I am assuming that you mean the accident report prepared by the investigating officer. If my assumption is correct, then what the officer wrote on the accident report is irrelevant. What matters is what the officer charged your girlfriend with and what she paid the ticket for. If the charge was driving without license on person, and she paid the fine for that offense, she may not have to go to court. However, some offenses carry a mandatory court appearance, so she needs to verify that fact by calling the Clerk, whose number should be on the back of the ticket.
