Our lawyers represent people in Albany and other parts of Southwest Georgia who have been charged with committing serious crimes, injured by someone else's negligence or defrauded through deceptive business practices. Our firm has also been exceptionally successful in helping victims of crimes in the Albany area and all over Georgia. We have been successfully advocating for clients in Southwest Georgia for many years.

In one recent Southwest Georgia criminal case, our trial lawyers convinced state prosecutors to dismiss false child molestation charges against our client. We hired an investigator to uncover significant information about the complainant and presented that information to the DA's office prior to trial. The client was facing 20 years in prison, but the case was dismissed. We have also successfully resolved other serious criminal charges in the Albany area, and have helped injured victims recover substantial damages.

Albany is the center of our practice in Southwest Georgia. The city was founded in 1836 by Nelson Tift and named after New York's capital. The city sits at the head of the Flint River and has endured a long history of flooding and displacement. Today, the city boasts a population of nearly 77,000 people making it the ninth largest in Georgia. Perhaps the most notable Albanian was singer and pianist Ray Charles who was born there. Over the past thirty years, Albany has grown extensively employing most of its residents in health care, manufacturing and education. The city is also home to a nearby Marine Corps base which primarily repairs combat equipment. We have represented some Marines and former Marines from that base in several different types of cases.

The Superior Court of Dougherty County is located in Albany and handles state criminal allegations and civil suits. The court is currently comprised of three judges. Albany also has a federal courthouse and a division office for the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Georgia where federal cases in that district are resolved. The U.S. Attorney for the Middle District is responsible for the prosecution of all federal criminal cases and also has an office in the Albany federal courthouse.

Our attorneys know Albany. We have been practicing law in the Albany area for years and have made strong ties with local prosecutors, attorneys and court personnel. Although we do not have a physical office in Albany, our firm's Macon office provides a convenient meeting place for our Southwest Georgia clients.

We also help clients pursue justice in many other cities and towns in Southwest Georgia, including Thomasville, Moultrie, Bainbridge, Americus, Tifton, Cordele and Valdosta.
