This man is an angel saving me from multiple felony convictions and an illegal traffic stop. I would recommend David koontz to anyone who asks for a professional criminal defense lawyer. He is very communicative, clear, and knowledgeable in the law and what can be done best to help you! He helped me keep my record clean through all that he can help you. Thank you koontz! -B

Rob Schnatmeier, is the real deal. His professional background is very essential in figuring out the best possible defense for your situation. All you have to do is pray and let Rob do the footwork. He turned a messy situation around for me and I can forever be grateful for that. I needed a criminal defense lawyer and he was the perfect fit. And if he turned around that situation in “COBB COUNTY” of all places then I know for any services rendered he’ll dominate with a level of professionalism that you’ll be glad to spend money on. His paralegal Brittani will keep you informed and will always answer call or text. They will not leave you wondering. Personal injury, DUI, or whatever I would most definitely call this firm. I would give the 1000 stars but can only give 5. I appreciate the hard work from you guys from the bottom of my heart❤️

Every interaction with the firm was amazing. No one wants to be in a situation like ours, but we were readily assisted, without judgment. Our attorney was knowledgeable, direct, and kind. I hope to never be in need of these services again, but won’t hesitate to call if needed. Thank you!!

Both Mr. Alday and Mr. Johnson do a great job of answering all your legal questions in a timely manner. They actually call you themselves so you get the chance to speak to lawyers versus other offices who may use paralegals and office staff.

I received a consultation with Bobby Johnson and was impressed by his ability to break down and add context to the questions I had about workers' compensation law.
Bobby too time to mention the numerous workers' compensation committees he's part of, which made it clear that he's a specialist by choice. Hearing that his office chooses not to accept certain payments because they feel that an injured person needs that money in full - when his office, like any other workers' comp office, is lawfully entitled to that money - made a great impression.
Based on my consultation, I'd absolutely seek representation from Johnson and Alday.

My experience with this law firm, and Bobby Johnson in particular was very beneficial. Mr. Johnson took the time to review my questions and thoroughly answer them, giving me the caveats and pros/cons of initiating a workers compensation case. It was very clear to me based on his credentials, his 18 years of experience in workers compensation cases, and his well thought out answers that he knows this area of law very well and made me comfortable in pursuing my case. Thank you!

Attorney Goldberg was amazing and one of the best lawyers I could ever find. He truly went beyond to help me resolve my case successfully, he did everything he could by going the extra mile to communicate with the prosecutor to get my case resolved without having a hearing. Throughout the process, he kept me updated and discussed all the steps necessary to achieve the outcome that I’d expected. I’d highly recommend Attorney Goldberg to anybody for his great work and dedication!

Mr. Goldberg was successful in my case, & in fact brought me the best possible outcome on two occasions. He is extremely knowledgeable, was thorough in his work on my cases, & is someone I have no hesitation recommending you hire. He also remained in communication with me throughout the process. He expertly instructed & prepared me, regarding whatever was in my best interests to accomplish. I appreciate his desire, & following through, to fully advocate for me as his client. If you need an attorney who will absolutely fight for your rights, hire Mr. Goldberg! I am so relieved, and am extremely fortunate to have him represent me. With much gratitude, I can say he is outstanding!!

Bill is AMAZING at what he does. I was involved in a t-bone car crash that left me with a fractured leg. He fought with the other driver's insurance company and got me highest pay out they offered for my bodily injury. He also diligently negotiated a fair price to take care of the pending medical bills, which were lowered by 60%. He always kepted me updated on the status of the case and made himself available if I had questions or concerns. Bill is down to earth, and knows how to make someone smile in there time of need! Highly recommended!!!! He is my lawyer for life!

I have had the privilege of working with Lawrence on two occasions over the past 10yrs. Both cases ended in very favorable terms for myself.

He and his colleagues are highly responsible, respected, and effective legal counsel for anyone who ends up on the wrong side of the law. 10/10

Mr. Zimmerman goes above and beyond when he takes a case. He helped me when I was accused of sexual exploitation over the internet. He doesn’t judge and just deals with the facts. He’s very responsive and works very hard to win your case, while keeping you updated throughout the process. He is very knowledgeable about dealing with sex crimes. He was able to get me the best possible outcome in my situation. I highly recommend him.
It’s easy to feel like there’s nowhere to turn when you’re accused of sexual crimes, like the whole world is against you, but don’t give up. Mr Zimmerman and his team can help.

Promptly secured bond to release our child from jail. Provided expert guidance about next steps and potential outcomes. Wisely recommended appropriate counseling and safe guards during the 'probationary' period. Adeptly navigated the legal process and effectively engaged with the district attorney on behalf of our child. Ultimately, secured a dismissal of all charges. We were/are thrilled with how Lawrence handled our case. And highly recommend him to anyone in need of such representation!

I hired David on two different cases that other lawyers were trying to get me to plea out to. They said they couldn’t beat my cases. I talked to David and he said he couldn’t promise me anything. But he would not sell me out and he would fight for my rights all the way. And he won both cases for me and i would not be a free man now if it wasn’t for David west. Thank you again David. You are by far the best lawyer I ever hired. And if I ever need a high powered attorney again I sure hope you are available. Best attorney around.

David West and associates, I can't thank you enough for the professionalism, your supreme knowledge of the law and representation in my case. You not only fought for my truth to be heard, you fought for my life and all that I would have lost! Though it may have seemed like you were unreachable, un attainable and didn't give much feed back,....you have demonstrated that not only you were more attentive to cases you represent while in action but also help your clients strengthen their "walk by faith and not by sight" approach to how you operate. You are truly a DAVID to your clients Goliaths, a SHEPHERD to sheep's who has wolves looking to devour their lives, and a person who shows how the WEST was won through your performance in a court room! My family will be forever grateful for your services and I will always recommend you to anyone in need. May God continue to bless you in your feild of work and your family and staff members.

Lisa is the best criminal defense attorney I've had the pleasure of working with in the state of Georgia. I had other prior representation that charged more and accomplished a fifth of what her and her team did. After she had helped (and won by all accounts) with my step brother on an alleged DUI charge, I was referred. She was able to quickly resolve all of the probation problems that my other attorney either lacked the skill or discipline to. She was also able to gain EARLY termination of probation. Lisa and her assistant Danielle provided absolute first class communication throughout the entirety of my case work. Lisa took the time on multiple occasions to truly get to know me and my case, and expressed genuine concern. If you're looking for your Harvey Specter look no further. Lisa and Danielle are winners, through and through, and they will win for you.

Throughout the entire process, Lisa Wells was always available to answer my questions, explain complex legal terms in a way that was easy to understand, and provide sound advice. Her dedication and attention to detail were evident in every step of my case.
Thanks to Lisa Wells’ expertise and hard work, my case was resolved successfully. I highly recommend Lisa Wells to anyone in need of legal assistance. She is truly a top-notch attorney who goes above and beyond for her clients.

We wanted to express our utmost gratitude to Joel Pugh and Associates in defending our 12-year-old daughter during an unexpected legal matter. Their professionalism, dedication, and community connections made a significant difference in our experience and led to a just outcome.
From our initial consultation, it was clear that Joel possessed extensive knowledge of juvenile law. His deep understanding of the legal issues at hand was complemented by strong connections within the community, which proved invaluable. These relationships allowed him to navigate our case effectively and advocate for our daughter with authority.
Throughout this difficult time, Joel and his team exhibited remarkable patience and kindness. They understood that this was an emotional journey for our family and treated us with respect and empathy. Their attentive listening and willingness to address our concerns helped alleviate much of our anxiety.
We highly recommend Joel Pugh and Associates for anyone seeking legal representation, especially in matters involving children. Their combination of professional expertise, compassionate support, effective communication, community connections, and successful outcomes sets them apart as an exceptional law firm. We are incredibly grateful for their assistance during this challenging chapter in our lives.

First and foremost I would like to thank Frye Law Group for accepting me as a client. Secondly, I would like to thank Michael for representing me. It was short notice but he made sure that he was more than prepared. He understood what mattered to me most and was able to execute without hesitation and got my case dismissed. I may be quiet but I knew in this situation I would have to stand up for myself. I’m just glad I didn’t have to face this alone. Now I can get back to being the best dad that I know that I am. Thank you again. I will definitely be recommending Frye Law Group to anyone in need.

I will leave this review to those that want the honest truth and unfortunately, I need to leave this review vague enough so that her office doesn’t try and discredit my comments (I would challenge you to look at her responses to other negative reviews…some are obviously warranted) I don’t play.
Several years ago, I was going through the most challenging time of my young adult life. I had made some mistakes years prior and unfortunately found myself in a predicament, which lead me to an admission of guilt to my misdemeanor charge…per my council (Ms. Frye directly) I accepted a deal that was inaccurately presented to me in court. While dealing with the aftermath of my case, it was brought to my attention that Ms. Frye had given me an inaccurate and false narrative of my obligations to the court. I can’t go into extreme detail, but I can tell you, I have more than enough evidence of malpractice. I do not and will not take this lightly. As a working class medical professional, anyone that wants to partner with Ms. Frye I would recommend you head my warning.
I have a case worker overlooking my complaint to the Georgia board. As a criminal defense attorney, Ms. Frye does not want these facts to become public, but unfortunately this is the direction she would like to move forward with. She is unwilling to admit to the mistakes she made to the court (and myself), which the court has graciously provided me and my current attorneys (several years later, after the incident) with enough proof and evidence of said malpractice.
There are so many attorneys out there. This one will overcharge you and make it feel normal…and in my case, give you the worst outcome possible (with sprinkles of nasty, disrespectful and condescending attitude) while verbally giving you the wrong outcome of your case after the trial. I can’t make this up. I know I sound like someone recently hurt by the outcome of my case…that is incorrect. I advise any and everyone to challenge any potential attorney that you might be interested in to ask adequate questions and understand the realm of possibilities regarding your case. This was one of the worst mistakes I’ve made in my entire life, and I have really been struggling with it for years. I would not recommend Ms. Frye to my worst enemy.

I cannot recommend Lance highly enough. From the moment I first consulted with him, I felt confident that my case was in the best hands. Lance demonstrated exceptional professionalism, compassion, and expertise throughout the entire process.
He took the time to understand my situation fully and worked tirelessly to ensure the best possible outcome for my family. Lance always kept me informed, explaining every step in a way that was easy to understand and made sure I was comfortable with the decisions being made.
He went above and beyond to advocate for my rights and the needs of my children, making a very stressful process much more manageable. I am incredibly grateful for Lance’s dedication and hard work. If you’re looking for a family/ child support attorney who truly cares about their clients and delivers results, look no further!

I can’t express my deepest appreciation for my attorney and his staff. I am new to Georgia and when I was accused in a new state, I felt lost. I had consults with a couple of attornies that wanted to do no work with high fees. My attorney listened to me and talked to me like a human and not a dollar sign. He checked on me and kept me informed of every decision through out the entire process. This is an experience that can’t be matched. I am happy to report that my case was dismissed with no record thanks to Awad Legal Team! Myself and my family are beyond grateful for your hard work and compassion! Thank you again!

I advise any and everyone to challenge any potential attorney that you might be interested in to ask adequate questions and understand the realm of possibilities regarding your case. This was one of the worst mistakes I’ve made in my entire life, and I have really been struggling with it for years. I would not recommend Ms. Frye to my worst enemy.

I recently settled my case with this law firm…and let’s just say I will NEVER use them again for ANYTHING . I was dissatisfied with the services and disgusted with the amount I’ve received for my car accident.. it was ridiculous how I had to constantly call in and upon doing so it was times new people were brought on to my case, and I would have to explain from start. They don’t care! And they received far more money than me as a client in the end… I wish my case was NEVER handed to them by Great Trial which is another company I would NEVER trust to do any other case for me… you are better off going to well known attorneys than this small new inexperienced office. Never again!

What a Criminal Defense Lawyer Can Do for You
A criminal defense lawyer provides legal representation to individuals or organizations accused of criminal conduct. If you're facing criminal charges, a defense lawyer will work to protect your rights, build a defense strategy, and ensure you receive a fair trial. Their primary goal is to reduce or dismiss charges, secure an acquittal, or negotiate a favorable plea deal.
Criminal defense lawyers have extensive knowledge of criminal law and court procedures. They investigate your case, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's evidence, and represent you in court, ensuring that you have the best possible defense.
When Should I Hire a Criminal Defense Lawyer?
It’s crucial to hire a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible if you are facing any criminal charges. Some situations in which you should seek legal representation include:
- Arrest or police questioning: If you've been arrested or are under investigation, hiring a lawyer early on can prevent self-incrimination and protect your rights during police questioning.
- Felony charges: Crimes such as murder, assault, drug trafficking, or robbery carry severe penalties, including long prison sentences. A defense lawyer is essential in these cases.
- Misdemeanor charges: Even for less serious offenses like DUI, theft, or simple assault, a lawyer can help reduce penalties, negotiate alternatives to jail, or get charges dismissed.
- Plea negotiations: If you’re considering a plea bargain, a lawyer can evaluate the deal, advise you on its consequences, and negotiate for more favorable terms.
- Probation or parole violations: If you’ve been accused of violating probation or parole, a lawyer can defend you against additional penalties or revocation.
- Juvenile offenses: For minors charged with criminal acts, a criminal defense lawyer can protect their future by minimizing legal repercussions or keeping the case in juvenile court.
What Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?
Criminal defense lawyers provide comprehensive legal services to protect their clients’ rights throughout the criminal justice process. Their duties include:
- Case evaluation and investigation: Reviewing the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and investigating the facts to develop a strong defense strategy.
- Legal advice: Advising you on your rights, the charges you’re facing, and potential defense strategies, including whether to take a plea deal or go to trial.
- Negotiating plea bargains: Working with prosecutors to negotiate a plea deal that could reduce charges or minimize penalties.
- Court representation: Representing you in all court hearings, including bail hearings, pretrial motions, trials, and sentencing hearings.
- Filing motions: Filing motions to dismiss charges, suppress evidence, or reduce bail, depending on the specifics of your case.
- Trial preparation and defense: Preparing a defense strategy and presenting arguments, evidence, and witnesses during trial to contest the prosecution's case.
- Appeals: If you are convicted, a defense lawyer can appeal the conviction or sentence, arguing errors in the trial process or legal rulings.
How Are Criminal Defense Lawyers Paid?
Criminal defense lawyers generally charge clients in one of three ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Payment structures include:
- Flat fee: For straightforward cases (e.g., minor misdemeanors), some lawyers charge a one-time flat fee that covers all aspects of the defense.
- Hourly rate: For more complex or ongoing cases, lawyers may charge by the hour, with rates varying based on the lawyer’s experience and geographic location.
- Retainer fee: In cases where extensive work is expected, the client may pay a retainer fee upfront. The lawyer then bills against that retainer for their work on the case.
The cost of criminal defense services can vary greatly, so it’s important to discuss fees during your initial consultation.
How Much Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a criminal defense lawyer depends on several factors, including the severity of the charges, the complexity of the case, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost guidelines are:
- Misdemeanor cases: For relatively minor offenses, such as a DUI or petty theft, a flat fee may range from $1,500 to $5,000.
- Felony cases: More serious charges, such as assault or drug trafficking, can range from $10,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on the complexity and duration of the case.
- Hourly rates: For cases billed by the hour, lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on their expertise and the case's location.
- Additional expenses: You may also be responsible for other costs, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, or the cost of private investigators.
Be sure to clarify the lawyer’s fee structure and any potential additional costs during your consultation.
Top Questions to Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer
Before hiring a criminal defense lawyer, you’ll want to ensure that they’re a good fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has a strong track record with the specific type of criminal charges you’re facing, whether it’s DUI, drug offenses, or violent crimes. -
What is your fee structure?
Ask how the lawyer charges for their services and whether you’ll be responsible for any additional costs. -
What are the potential outcomes of my case?
A good lawyer should provide an honest assessment of your case and the likelihood of dismissal, a plea bargain, or conviction. -
How many cases have you taken to trial?
While many criminal cases settle with a plea deal, it’s important to hire a lawyer with courtroom experience in case your case goes to trial. -
Who will handle my case?
Ask if the lawyer will be personally involved or if other attorneys in the firm will handle most of the work. -
How do you communicate with your clients?
Be clear on how often and through what channels you can expect updates on your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Criminal Defense Lawyer
To verify the credibility of a criminal defense lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check their standing with the state bar: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any past disciplinary actions or complaints.
- Read online reviews and testimonials: Platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google can provide insights from previous clients about the lawyer’s communication, professionalism, and case outcomes.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should have past clients or other professionals who can speak to their competence and work ethic.
- Review their case history: Look at the lawyer’s website or professional profile to see their experience with criminal cases, including high-profile or complex cases.
- Look for trial experience: If your case might go to trial, make sure the lawyer has a strong history of courtroom advocacy and success.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most of your first consultation with a criminal defense lawyer, bring the following:
- Details of your case: Be prepared to provide a detailed account of the charges against you, including any documents related to your arrest, police reports, and court dates.
- Criminal history: If you have any prior criminal convictions, inform your lawyer so they can understand how that may affect your current case.
- List of witnesses or evidence: If there are any potential witnesses or evidence that may support your defense, share this information during the consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare questions about their experience, legal strategy, and fees to ensure you understand how they will handle your case.
- Bail or release documents: If you’ve been released on bail, bring any paperwork related to your release conditions or restrictions.
By being well-prepared, you can help your lawyer quickly assess your situation and begin building an effective defense strategy.
