Virtual Consultation Available
When someone is arrested or gets a ticket, having to deal with the legal system can be a difficult experience to go through. I have dedicated my adult life to helping people get through that experience successfully.
As a Harvard Law graduate and local criminal defense attorney with 19 years of experience practicing in Georgia, my "back yard" is primarily Cobb, Douglas, Paulding, and Cherokee counties.
I am dedicated to working hard to resolve criminal cases, ranging from felonies to misdemeanors and traffic court. While I respect that some attorneys specialize in certain specific charges only, I have always embraced the idea of being "cross-trained" and gaining valuable experience by handling and trying different kinds of criminal cases.
No matter the situation, I have a passion for defending individuals' rights, and for making sure you have an advocate in your corner at the courthouse. I offer free consultation, personal service, and reasonable fees.
I believe you should insist on hiring a local attorney who:
In your free consultation, we can discuss your situation thoroughly and privately. The best way to reach me is on my cell phone or by email. I will return your message promptly, and I will provide you with the high level of personal service that you deserve.
Please do not hestiate to contact me and see how we can resolve your matter successfully. I look forward to hearing from you!

HIGHLY recommend!!!
I was charged with a DUI less safe and Mr. Koontz fought for me to get it reduced to reckless driving! He was very responsive and answered all of my questions. It was my first offense and he held my hand through the entire process. I would HIGHLY recommend Mr. Koontz to anyone in need of lawyer!

Review
He was very caring. However, I did not feel like he gave it his all. He depended on his relationship with prosecutor to get my dui reduced instead of actually fighting for potential evidence. I feel let down and pushed to the side. I had to reach out to find out court dates and updates on footage. As...
While I have had many DUI cases reduced or dismissed, no lawyer can guarantee that kind of result. I am very up front with prospective clients that DUI cases are different, even for first-time offenders. The First Offender Act does not apply to DUIs, and diversion programs will not accept them. If the evidence is strong and the prosecutor will not agree to reduce or dismiss, and the client does not want to go to trial, the plea deal for a first-time DUI is the bare minimum conditions required by Georgia law, including no further jail time and a limited permit to drive. And I do appreciate the client saying that I am very caring, which is why I’m puzzled that she didn’t come to me with these concerns before. I gave my all on this case as I do for all of my clients. I treat everyone the way I would want to be treated, so I will take this to heart and be sure going forward that my clients know that I’m working as hard as I can for them to get the best result.
