Criminal Law
As trial lawyers, the attorneys at The Federal Firm enjoy going to court. But going to court is a very expensive and very dangerous place for Clients - especially in criminal cases. It may sound strange coming from a criminal defense lawyer, but the truth is that the most important thing a criminal defense lawyer can do for a Client is to get the Client out of the criminal justice system.
Therefore, in each and every case where our Client is threatened or actually charged with a crime, whether that crime be a D.U.I. or a murder, our primary goal is to move as quickly as possible to get the charges dismissed, to get the case dead-docketed, to negotiate a nol prosse with the prosecution, to get the Client into an alternative program that avoids court entirely, to plea bargain for a probated sentence, etc; and if and when we can achieve a quick and relatively painless resolution, which avoids any jail time and prevents any conviction from appearing on the Client's record, then we have done our Client a great service. As a last resort, of course, when the prosecution demands a trial, we are fully prepared to present our best case to the court and jury to obtain an acquittal and full exoneration for our Client.
The Federal Firm has a former Superior Court Judge, a former Felony Prosecutor, and a former Public Defender - perhaps the only law firm in Atlanta with this level of experience in the criminal justice system. We know how it really works!
