Rates, Retainers and Additional Information
Free Consultation Initial appointment and lawyer consultation are FREE. Our law office requires a fee to give a second opinion on a criminal case for which another criminal attorney is presently representing you. Our Georgia lawyers do not handle the Georgia DDS appeal or ignition interlock paperwork, except for clients who have retained our law office. Traffic lawyer cost varies, depending on felony vs misdemeanor charges and court location. DUI attorney cost varies depending on complexity of the case. Traffic attorney cost is less than DUI and other serious traffic ticket offenses. DUI lawyer cost can be paid in monthly increments. Issues like family violence (domestic violence) can start out as a felony or misdemeanor, so these are on a case-by-case basis. Criminal case fees are “flat” fees, but paid in segments as the case progresses from arraignment, to motions, to trial (if needed). Initial appointment given in person or via Facetime or other virtual meeting technology.
