Criminal Defense
Putting Experienced Criminal Defense Representation On Your Side
In addition to our family law practice, The Law Office of Ashley McCartney, LLC, in Atlanta, Georgia, also provides skilled handling of criminal defense cases, including traffic offenses, DUI, misdemeanors and felonies.
The Kind Of Criminal Defense Representation We Provide
Attorney Ashley McCartney will provide representation regarding the following areas:
- Traffic offenses. When you receive a traffic citation and are required to appear in court or are unsatisfied with the fine, The Law Office of Ashley McCartney, LLC, can assist you through the process. Often, penalties for these types of offenses can be negotiated with the prosecutor during a pretrial conference. Some traffic courts offer pretrial intervention programs for these offenses. Call today to discuss what options you may have.
- Driving under the influence. If you have been arrested for DUI, you need to act quickly. There are basically two cases pending against you — one criminal and one administrative. You have 10 days to appeal the administrative suspension of your license with the Georgia Department of Driver Services if you refused testing or if you tested and blew over the legal limit. If you do not act within 10 days, your license will be automatically suspended. You are also subject to the criminal system, which can include penalties such as license suspension, jail time, fines, probation and others. The Law Office of Ashley McCartney, LLC, can help you navigate this system and get the best result possible under the circumstances. Call today for a consultation.
- Misdemeanors and felonies. If you have been charged with a felony or a misdemeanor, you can be subject to penalties, including jail time, fines, probation and others, some of which can have a negative impact on your future. You will be required to appear in court, sometimes multiple times, to resolve your case.
