Felonies and Misdemeanors

Georgia Felony and Misdemeanor Defense

Several things can happen after you have been arrested and charged with committing a crime. The case could be dropped by the prosecutor’s office for lack of evidence. It could be dismissed by a judge because of a procedural mistake. A plea bargain might be worked out with the prosecutor. You could be acquitted of all charges. You could also be convicted.

Regardless of how your case is resolved in the end, the best thing you can do for yourself right now is to hire an experienced criminal defense attorney to protect your rights.

For smart, aggressive and proven criminal defense representation in the Atlanta metro area or anywhere in Georgia — contact us and put 32 years of criminal law experience on your side.

At The Law Offices of Howard J. Weintraub, P.C., we believe that anyone who is under investigation or who has been arrested and charged with a crime — no matter what that crime is — deserves to have a lawyer willing to fight passionately to protect his/her rights as vigorously as the law permits.

Although much of our firm's Georgia criminal defense practice is devoted to DUI cases, we also defend people who have been arrested and charged with many other kinds of criminal offenses, including:

  • Drug possession
  • Drug sales, distribution, manufacturing or trafficking
  • Conspiracy
  • Assault and battery
  • Theft/identity theft
  • Sexual assault, abuse or child molestation
  • Fraud, embezzlement and other white collar crimes
  • Murder/homicide
  • Domestic Violence

Very few Georgia criminal defense lawyers can claim experience as a former Assistant United States Attorney with more than 32 years of experience. But we believe that the way we treat and interact with our clients every day is the real strength of this firm and the primary reason for our success.

Whatever you have been charged with, we will sit down with you and review what happened, explain the law and go over your options. You will decide what direction to take, and we will keep you informed about what to expect as things progress.
