Attorney Nagel worked for me for 20 months on a complicated DUI case. I live in CT and the charges were in GA and it complicated things greatly. He was able to work with the prosecutor and have a plea bargain worked out for me ahead of time so that when I flew down I knew what to expect.

Carter is an outstanding and passionate attorney. I was arrested a couple years back on Halloween at a road block by State Patrol for a "DUI" after passing all the field sobriety tests. I was driving a friend home, but State Patrol arrested me anyway. I contacted Carter after I was bailed out. He quickly took my case, reviewed the evidence, police tapes, and was determined to prove I was truly innocent and should not have been arrested that night. My case was presented at the state level where they agreed I was not to be charged with a DUI due to the lack of evidence. Since the case was brought to the state court, Carter was able to arrange a plea bargain to reduce to reckless driving with no probation or nonsense alcohol and drug evaluation/classes.
Carter fought for my case and was able to make the best of the situation and prove me innocent. The case took multiple years to close, however, he kept me informed of what was happening and what to expect the entire time. He is patient and will answer any questions you have and fight for what you. I highly recommend Carter. He is very passionate about his job and is truly on the defendants side.

A few months ago I was arrested on several serious charges. After initially consulting with Carter, I decided he would be the best person to represent me based on his clear understanding of my situation, and his ability to explain what was happening in layman's terms. I’m pretty ignorant when it comes to legal processes, but Carter was very patient in explaining my options to me, and answered all of my questions completely - regardless of how silly or paranoid they were. He was attentive and professional through the entire process, which reassured me I had made the right decision in hiring him. Ultimately, Carter was able to negotiate a reasonable plea agreement with the prosecutor, which was really the best possible outcome for my case. I hope I’ll never require this type of legal service again, but I would certainly rehire Carter if I did.

My wife and I had a terrible accident, that threw us into a panic. We had no emergency fund, and now without a car and riddled with pain and injuries from the wreck. Once we gave him a call, he had us taken care of. He helped us navigate the confusing legal side of all of this. It was a pleasure to have him on our side, and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal counsel, advice, or representation.

Michael is the real deal in a world of pretend lawyers. I am living proof because I hired a “big firm” years ago and the settlement was small. This time I hired Michael and he fought them intensely until they settled for a large six figure number, 20x more than the first offer. WOW is all I can say. Even when they blamed my injuries on my old accident, Michael filed a lawsuit and did not stop until they paid me what was fair. TOP LAWYER IN GEORGIA is right here… I’m already sending referrals!!

I hired Mr. Gumprecht after my husband was killed while crossing the road. After calling several lawyers who were incapable of taking my case Mr.Gumprecht did. He continuously fought for me. I cannot recommend him enough. If you need an excellent lawyer, do not hesitate to call him first.
Thank you!

Atty. Brussert made power moves in my case on my behalf; there’s no way I would have known the strategies he used had I gone solo. I truly believe that he made the difference in my divorce case…which by the way, was awarded in my favor. I’m so glad I retained him. You will be, too.

I got a traffic recently and I am under 21 years of age. I am getting ready to leave for college out of state and was worried this would become a bigger problem than it was.

Being the first time in a situation like that, Attorney Wilson really put me at ease. He really took an almost impossible situation and turned it favorable. No matter what the situation is, he will be my attorney.

I was first time offender in the state of Georgia. I was referred to Mr. Wilson's firm where he accepted my case and made me feel as if I were a priority. This was new experience for me, but I trusted Mr.Wilson as he guided me through the process. He provided me with step-by-step possible scenarios, but ultimately allowed me to make a decision in which I felt comfortable. He was honest with me, and I was able to manage ALL of my legal obligations within 6 months. I strongly recommend Markeith Wilson for legal advice or support.

Attorney Hughes is awesome!
I initially hired and attorney from a big name Law Firm to represent me in a child custody case. The attorney sold me a dream, got paid then basically told me the best she could do for me is get me standard visitation with a very high monthly child support payment. I replaced that attorney and hired Attorney Hughes, now I have custody and the mother has standard visitation.
Your case is only as strong as your representation . If you're looking for a attorney that will fight for you, Attorney Hughes is your lady. The little lady with big standing.

Attorney Hughes is wonderful, great! A perfect example of our great judicial system. While handling my case, she went above and beyond to adhere to and make sure that the appropriate justice was served. She made me feel very comfortable and took the time out to listen to each and every detail to assure that my rights were protected. I've already taken the liberty to refer her to my friends and associates for legal consultation and representation.

Attorney Proctor is simply the best. Not only is he knowledgeable, he and his team took the time to educate me every step of the way. I was treated with dignity and respect every step of the way. If there was ever a change that needed to happen, I was notified promptly and given options. Every email and phone call I sent was responded to in a timely manner. I was blessed to have Attorney Proctor and his team work with me. I could not have asked for better representation in court. He and his team truly went above and beyond my child and I and I’m forever grateful.
Ryan considered me as a person, not just another case. I can’t thank this team enough.

I was caught red handed, irrefutable evidence that I had made some poor decisions. Instead of fitting a losing battle Mr. Lail proposed a solution that would accomplish the best results. I was blinded by fear and thinking that I knew best but I trusted Mr. Lail and was home and safe in a fraction of the time I was deserving of. I doubted Mr. Lail for a moment and ended up looking like a fool when it all worked out like he said it would.
Look, Mr. Lail is not a magician and cannot guarantee you will get off without any consequence. However if you are smart, (well you wouldn’t actually need him, but when you do!) you will get a straight shooting level headed lawyer like Mr. Lail to be your pathfinder back to freedom. He will tell you the truth.

I WISH I would have hired her sooner! I wasted so much time with a previous attorney, and the Hinkson Firm came in and got to business! I can guarantee, without a shadow of a doubt, that I will use her, for anything, that may arise in the future. Straight to the point, no problem explaining anything, and fights for you!

Ms. Britt seems like a nice person . Unfortunately nice does not win you over in court. She represented me on a family law matter and had NO exhibits. None. No evidence was presented on my behalf and she relied solely on my testimony. She was also not knowledgeable family law , but some how worked at a family law firm. My case was not studied properly which led to her only knowing initial information about my case. I had to inform her about what had been going on during my case on my COURT DATE at the last minute. In the end , the Judge chewed her up and spit her out and we looked stupid and unprepared, which ultimately caused me to lose my case. It's not worth it.

My traffic infractions have been pretty straightforward over the years but for the first time, I was faced with a potential Jury trial.
Ms. Britt was recommended to me by a colleague and she did not disappoint. She was very responsive (within 30 mins). Paid great attention to the details of my case and put me at ease.
My case was dismissed before I even made it into the courtroom.
Highly recommended!!!

What a Juvenile Law Lawyer Can Do for You
A juvenile law lawyer specializes in legal issues involving minors, including those facing criminal charges, child welfare matters, or status offenses (like truancy or curfew violations). Juvenile law lawyers aim to protect the rights of minors and advocate for rehabilitation rather than punishment in criminal cases. They also help families navigate child custody, abuse, neglect cases, and other legal matters involving children.
If your child is facing criminal charges, or you are involved in a child welfare case, a juvenile law lawyer can help protect your child’s rights and work toward the most favorable outcome.
When Should I Hire a Juvenile Law Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a juvenile law lawyer in the following situations where minors are involved in legal matters:
- Juvenile criminal charges: If your child is accused of a crime, such as theft, assault, or drug offenses, a juvenile lawyer can represent them in juvenile court, advocating for leniency and alternatives to detention.
- Delinquency proceedings: A lawyer can help navigate delinquency charges, defending your child’s rights and seeking rehabilitative outcomes like counseling, probation, or diversion programs instead of incarceration.
- Status offenses: If your child has committed a status offense, such as truancy, running away, or underage drinking, a lawyer can help you resolve these issues in juvenile court, often focusing on rehabilitation rather than punishment.
- School disciplinary issues: If your child is facing school suspensions, expulsions, or other disciplinary actions, a lawyer can help protect their educational rights and challenge any unfair or unlawful school policies.
- Child protective services (CPS) investigations: If your family is being investigated by CPS for alleged abuse, neglect, or dependency, a lawyer can represent you and protect your child’s rights throughout the investigation.
- Custody disputes: A lawyer can help in cases involving child custody or guardianship disputes, ensuring the child’s best interests are prioritized and advocating for the child’s rights.
- Emancipation: If your child seeks legal emancipation from their parents or guardians, a lawyer can assist in navigating the legal process and help the child understand their rights and responsibilities.
Hiring a lawyer early in the legal process ensures that your child’s rights are protected and that the best possible outcomes are pursued.
What Does a Juvenile Law Lawyer Do?
A juvenile law lawyer provides various services to help minors and their families navigate the legal system. Their responsibilities often include:
- Representing minors in court: A lawyer will represent your child in juvenile court, advocating for their rights and seeking rehabilitative outcomes rather than punitive measures.
- Filing motions and legal paperwork: The lawyer handles all necessary legal filings, including petitions, responses, and motions to dismiss charges or suppress evidence.
- Negotiating with prosecutors: In some cases, a lawyer can negotiate plea deals or diversion programs that prevent the child from having a permanent criminal record or serving time in detention.
- Advising on rehabilitation programs: Juvenile law lawyers often focus on alternatives to incarceration, such as counseling, community service, or probation, helping minors avoid long-term legal consequences.
- Handling CPS and child welfare cases: If your family is involved in a CPS investigation or child welfare case, the lawyer can advocate for your child’s safety and well-being, ensuring that their rights are upheld.
- Defending minors against school discipline: A lawyer can help challenge unfair or excessive disciplinary actions taken by schools, ensuring that your child’s educational rights are protected.
- Advising families on legal options: A lawyer will explain the juvenile legal process to families, offering advice on the best legal strategies and what to expect during the case.
How Are Juvenile Law Lawyers Paid?
Juvenile law lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the time involved. Common payment structures include:
- Hourly rate: Many juvenile law lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Flat fee: For simpler cases, such as status offenses or school disciplinary hearings, a lawyer may charge a flat fee that covers all legal services related to the case.
- Retainer: In more complex cases, such as defending against serious criminal charges or handling a long-term CPS investigation, a lawyer may require a retainer, which is an upfront payment billed against as they work on the case.
- Sliding scale or pro bono services: Some juvenile law lawyers offer sliding scale fees based on income or may provide pro bono (free) services for families who cannot afford to pay full legal fees, especially in cases involving child welfare or delinquency.
Discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to understand the total cost and payment options.
How Much Does a Juvenile Law Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a juvenile law lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the time involved. General cost estimates include:
- Juvenile criminal cases: Legal fees for defending a minor in juvenile criminal cases can range from $2,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the severity of the charges and whether the case goes to trial.
- Status offenses: For cases involving minor offenses such as truancy or underage drinking, legal fees typically range from $1,500 to $5,000.
- CPS or child welfare cases: Legal fees for representing families in CPS investigations or child welfare cases can range from $2,000 to $8,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the case.
- School disciplinary hearings: Legal fees for representing students in school-related issues may range from $1,000 to $3,500, depending on the legal work required.
Make sure to get a clear estimate of costs during your initial consultation to ensure you understand the full scope of fees and services.
Top Questions to Ask a Juvenile Law Lawyer
Before hiring a juvenile law lawyer, it’s important to ask key questions to ensure they have the experience and expertise to handle your child’s case effectively. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with juvenile law cases?
Make sure the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, whether it’s juvenile delinquency, child custody, or CPS investigations. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, offers flat fees, or requires a retainer. Ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost. -
What is the likelihood of success in my child’s case?
Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of the case, including potential challenges and likely outcomes. -
How long will the process take?
Juvenile cases can vary in duration, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last and what factors might affect the timeline. -
Will you personally handle my child’s case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing the case and representing your child in court. -
What rights does my child have?
Ask the lawyer to explain your child’s legal rights, including their rights during police questioning, school disciplinary actions, and court proceedings.
How to Check the Credibility of a Juvenile Law Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable juvenile law lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and experience:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice law and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for juvenile law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in juvenile law and have successfully handled cases similar to yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate in juvenile cases.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on juvenile law matters.
- Check for certifications or memberships: Look for memberships in organizations like the National Juvenile Defender Center (NJDC) or certifications in juvenile law, which can indicate a lawyer’s dedication to representing minors.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a juvenile law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Court documents: Bring any legal documents related to your child’s case, such as summons, complaints, or court orders.
- School records: Provide any relevant school records, including disciplinary reports, attendance records, and communications from school officials.
- CPS or investigation reports: If your case involves child welfare, bring any reports or documentation from CPS or other investigating agencies.
- Timeline of events: Prepare a detailed timeline of events related to your child’s legal issue, including interactions with authorities or school officials.
- Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions about the legal process, your child’s rights, and potential outcomes for the case.
Being well-prepared will help the lawyer assess your child’s situation more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice tailored to your needs.
