Frequently Asked Questions
Don't see your question? Call 770-240-1014.
What should I do right after an arrest in Cobb County?
Stay calm, be polite, and say as little as possible beyond identifying yourself. Don't explain, argue, or consent to searches. Ask for a lawyer and then stop talking. Call TT Attorney as soon as you're able - the first 30 days after a DUI arrest in Georgia include a license-suspension deadline that can't be missed.
Will I lose my license after a DUI arrest in Georgia?
Not automatically, but the clock starts immediately. You have 30 days to request an administrative hearing or install an ignition interlock device; miss it and the suspension takes effect. We handle that filing as part of your defense so your driving privileges are protected while the criminal case proceeds.
Can a DUI charge be reduced?
Often, yes. Depending on the stop, the testing, and your record, a DUI may be reduced to reckless driving or another lesser charge, or dismissed outright if the evidence doesn't hold up. We review the arrest video, field sobriety tests, and breath or blood results before advising you on the strongest path.
Do I need a local lawyer for a Marietta case?
It helps. A Cobb County attorney knows the judges, prosecutors, and procedures in Marietta Municipal Court, State Court, and Superior Court, and can often resolve matters faster because of it. Our office is on Marietta Square, a short walk from the courthouse complex.
How much does a criminal defense lawyer cost?
Most criminal cases are handled on a flat fee that depends on the charge and the court, so you know the cost up front. Payment plans are available. Your first consultation is free and includes a frank discussion of fees before you commit to anything.
What types of criminal cases do you handle?
DUI, drug possession, assault and simple battery, reckless driving, traffic tickets, and probation matters, including early termination. We also help clients clear eligible arrests from their record through Georgia's record restriction process. If your charge isn't listed, call — we'll tell you honestly whether we're the right fit.
How do personal injury fees work?
Injury cases are handled on contingency: no fee unless we recover compensation for you. The fee is a percentage of the recovery, agreed in writing before we begin, and case costs are explained up front. Your consultation is free, and there's no obligation to hire us afterward.
What injury cases do you take in Cobb County?
Car, motorcycle, truck, and commercial vehicle accidents, dog bites, and slip-and-fall injuries. We handle claims against insurers from the first call through settlement or trial, and we pursue both economic damages (medical bills, lost wages) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering) where Georgia law allows.
