Criminal Defense Attorney in Atlanta

Question: I'm going to have an open house party. What legal steps can I make to not be charged with furnishing alcohol to minors if people show up that's under 21 years of age and I don't know it? I heard that if I put a sign on the door saying must be 21 to drink I cannot be charged with furnishing alcohol to minors.

Answer: A sign will not releave you of responsibility. If you cannot control the party, you need to rethink the party.

About Me

I hung a shingle in February 2000, because I saw that individuals charged with criminal offenses were being underserved by the attorneys practicing criminal law. Since February 2000, I have represented more than two thousand criminal clients. I only practice criminal law, but I do everything from violations of probation to Supreme Court appeals. There are few attorneys under the age of sixty that have my level of experience. I have tried more than two hundred major felony jury trials. I have tried more than fifty misdemeanor jury trials. In Philadelphia as a prosecutor, I tried more than two thousand bench trials. I have conducted more than three thousand preliminary hearings and bond hearings. Yet, I still have the energy at forty-five to serve my current clients. There is nothing that will occur in a courtroom that I have not experienced before. When you are looking for an attorney, experience is everything.
