Don't Let Your Georgia DUI Ruin Your Life

We Will Fight To Save Your License . . . and Your Freedom

FREE CASE EVALUATION

      When you've been arrested for a DUI and you don't think it's fair, you need a lawyer who can protect your rights...make sure you're treated fairly...and who knows how to get results. You've just found that law firm.

      We understand that you're probably feeling confused, angry, or somewhat fearful about what's happened to you. The process of being arrested, taken to jail, fingerprinted, and photographed was probably very dehumanizing to you. We sincerely sympathize with that.

      Let me begin by saying that a DUI has terrible consequences. It may involve license suspensions, probation--and even on a first lifetime DUI there is at least 24 hours of jail time.

      Plus, it doesn't end there. A conviction is something that could haunt you for many years to come, even hurting you when you apply for a job.

      You see, Georgia takes DUI very seriously. And so do we.

      Let me explain.

      First , we have the largest DUI law firm in Georgia. We have over 80 years of experience fighting DUI . . . which means we've seen all the tactics that the prosecutor is going to use. And we know how to combat them.

      We also lecture and teach other lawyers how to handle DUI cases.

      We are trained on field sobriety tests, so we know how to challenge their results (which. are wrong more frequently than you might expect).

      Plus, we have a full time investigator who is a former police officer.

      In other words, we have the knowledge and expertise to help you and your case.

We'll Help You Keep Your License and Your Freedom

FREE CASE EVALUATION

      You'll probably appreciate knowing that there are a number of possible challenges that can be made to the charges you are facing. A lawyer in our officer will raise applicable challenges for you so your case is as strong as possible.

      In fact, Head, Thomas, Webb, and Willis, is nationally known for fighting and winning DUI cases.

      We seek to keep your record clean and to prevent you from losing your freedom and your license to drive. No matter what else we do, we'll make sure that you're being treated fairly. The prosecutor handles these types of cases all day. He knows--and is willing to use against you--all of the fine legal points that are available to him. The law says that he only needs to prove that after drinking you were less safe to drive as a result of consuming alcohol or that your blood alcohol level was above .02 if you are under 21, .04 if you were driving a commercial vehicle, or .08 if you were over the age of 21.

      But it's not that simple.

      You see, if challenged, the prosecutor must show that the arresting officer made the arrest properly, that you were properly advised of your rights, that the equipment he used to test you was working accurately, and even that the person operating that equipment was certified to operate it.

Get The Legal Help You Need

FREE CASE EVALUATION

      That's where we come in.

      If you want to find out how you can be helped we'll be glad to talk with you. It costs nothing to speak to our office. You will find our staff incredibly knowledgeable and willing to help.

      We can't promise a successful outcome because each case is unique. Maybe the judge assigned to your case is more lenient on drunk driving cases, or maybe he is harsher on them. Maybe there are some things distinctive to your case which are important. However, all things being equal, we're confident that you'll be impressed with our firm and what we may be able to do for you.

      . When you retain our office you'll get expert legal help from an attorney who knows how to guide your case through the complexities of the legal system because we have handled thousands of DUI cases . . . with many being resolved to a non-DUI disposition.

      To make sure you are being treated fairly by the judicial system we will insist:

  • that the State's Attorney provide us with the name and address of anyone he plans to call as a witness, as well as copies of every written or recorded statements of their testimony. This will allow us to prepare the kind of questions that can weaken the State's case against you;
  • that the State provide us with any information or material he has which would show that you are not guilty of the charges against you, or which may help you get a lighter sentence.
  • on receiving copies of records showing that the equipment used for tests was functioning properly, and that the person giving the tests was properly certified.
  • on proof that you were advised of all of your rights. If you weren't, the State's case may be weakened.

      We speak with the District Attorney beforehand to get him to produce his proof and let him know that we will be contesting in court all these points we mentioned. When his case is challenged he has to take a lot of time producing this material and witnesses.

      As you can see, what looks simple gets pretty complex. As your attorney a member of our firm will look into all of these things for you so that you will have the best possible case.

      Actually, there is more, but we don't have space here to tell you all of it.

      The Attorneys of Head, Thomas, Webb, and Willis

      P.S. In case you're still undecided about who, if anyone, to go to, let me tell you one final thing--it may be important. There is no extra fee for handling any other charges on the Complaint against you, as long as it is no more serious than a misdemeanor.
