Drug Offenses Lawyer in Atlanta

Question: I'm on felony probation for drugs and have violated once for non report. Then i violated with a new misdemeanor theft by taken. Now i have a warrant for the new arrest, what is my max penalty?

Answer: Your max penalty depends on how much time you have left on probation. If you have three years left on probation, then the judge can take three years. UNLESS you plead first offender, which may allow the judge to re-sentence you to even more time.

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.
