Biography

I have been practicing law for nearly 30 years and am licensed to practice in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Georgia. My practice is centered on Criminal Defense, handling cases that range from traffic violations to serious charges like murder. I take pride in assisting individuals who come to me during what is often one of the most challenging times in their lives.

I firmly believe that everyone deserves a strong legal defense, and my goal is to provide that to each of my clients. While it may sound old-fashioned, I make it a priority to treat everyone I encounter with kindness and respect, approaching every case with the same care and consideration I would hope to receive myself.

I represent clients in both State and Federal Courts throughout the Greater Atlanta area. Feel free to reach out to me for a free consultation.

Legal Answers
4 Questions Answered
Q. (Subpoena for Attendance of Witnesses) 1) Can you decline a subpoena in Georgia? 2) Can you testify in secret?
A: No, you cannot disregard a subpoena. The court can and will hold a witness in contempt for violating a court order or subpoena to attend.

Also, pursuant to the Constitution, a defendant has the right confront or to look a testifying witness in the eye and cross exam him or her, so no you may not testify in secret. There is one caveat, however, witnesses who testify before a grand jury do so in a closed hearing which means the defendant and his attorney shall not be present. Grand jury proceedings are also closed to the public.
Q. How likely is the defendant to get Probation?
A: In order to completely answer this question, I would need to know exactly what the charges are. However, I can tell you that there are mandatory minimum terms of incarceration for certain types of aggravated assault. That means , he would not be eligible for probation if convicted.

For example if he were convicted for violating O.C.G.A. 16-5-21(c)(3)(I), where the “offense is committed between parents of the same child”, then the punishment shall be no less than 3, but no more than 20 years incarceration.
Q. Can you get a dui if you’re in your house and there is no proof of your driving the car under the influence
A: Although you maybe charged on a DUI based on circumstantial evidence and perhaps eyewitness testimony, you may have defenses to help avoid an actual conviction.

Without knowing all the facts, I can not say definitively whether this is true in your particular case.
