Rebecca Kozycki is the best there is!!

I was in serious trouble after getting a DUI. The police, in their incident report, exaggerated greatly and made me out to be totally incapacitated- which was not the case! I was very worried about losing my job. The case dragged on for two years; and during that whole time she kept me informed an...d up-to-date on all the details of my case. Whenever I would call (daytime, night time & weekends), Rebecca was always willing to discuss the details and advise me. When we did finally get into court, that's when Rebecca really shined. Rebecca did an amazing job cross-examining the police officers and using the video to refute their police report and testimony. When the case ended, the jury wasted little time in coming back with a Not Guilty verdict. I was so relieved and thankful!!!

Not Guilty

Rebecca represented me for my case (DUI and failure to maintain lane). I had no interest in a plea deal, so we ended up going to trial. This turned out to be a good decision as I was found not guilty on both charges. Rebecca was professional and pleasant. She remained positive while also keeping expe...ctations realistic. Ultimately it comes down to results and Rebecca came through for me. It's hard to express how grateful I am for having her by my side in court.

DEDICATED-Knowlegeable-DUI Attorney

I am a trucker and was in jeopardy of losing my CDL due to a DUI charge. I contacted Rebecca due to her excellent ratings as a DUI attorney as I was seeking only the best. She did NOT disappoint. Rebecca is TRULY the best DUI attorney a client could be represented by. She is extremely knowledgeable,... dedicated, communicates well and cares about her clients. Rebecca filed motions to reduce the charge to reckless driving, but ultimately was able to have my case DISMISSED. I highly recommend Rebecca Kozycki-Kozycki Law if you are facing the same issue. Thanks again Rebecca!

Aggressive and experienced DUI litigator

After an evening of celebrating my birthday with friends, I was stopped at a road block in the city. The officer asked about my level of alcohol consumption for the evening - I shared with him two glasses of wine. I didn't feel intoxicated, but was detained by the officer as I admitted to having two... glasses of wine. I refused field sobriety tests, and consented to breath test. I was booked, released, etc. I run a successful business and I also hold a professional license in Georgia, so I was terrified at how this would impact my career - among other things. How would I tell my family? How would I tell my staff? That same evening, I got online and did a tremendous amount of research - somehow it lead me to this website - I read so many of the attorney's profiles (including Rebecca's) and made a list of attorneys to contact the next day - Rebecca was at the top of the list. I called Rebecca, she answered promptly and professionally - we quickly scheduled a meeting in her office. From the very moment that I met her, I knew that I had found my match - articulate, experienced, compassionate, and right to the point. Without question, I hired her on the spot. She handled everything, and did exactly what she said that she would - she kept me informed, shared with me best and worse case scenarios, and ultimately achieved an exceptional outcome. She appeared in court for the arraignment, was successful in winning the ALS hearing (a big worry of mine was losing my driver's license) - she knew the officer and had a rapport with him. She had the case transferred from City of Atlanta Court to State Court - and the case lingered for quite a while. She filed motions to challenge the State's evidence, and other items. The day prior to the Motions Hearing, Rebecca called me to answer any questions, and was again direct - answering all questions - and assuring me that she was prepared. The morning of the Motions Hearing, she was absolutely prepared - prior to our court time, she shared with me her winning strategy - she had thorough notes, knew all of the aspects of my case, and was ready to "go get them". She knew all of the players involved in my case on the morning of court (including the judge), and I felt far more confident facing this stressful situation with her by my side. The bottom line is that the officer did not show up, she immediately initiated a motion to dismiss to the judge - the judge agreed - and CASE DISMISSED!!!!! The bottom line: if you are facing this same terrible situation as I did, do yourself a favor and stop your search now. Contact Rebecca immediately, and get her on your side to turn the tables around. Oh, and if you ever think of drinking and driving again, don't.

"Rebecca is a phenomenal DUI lawyer who I would recommend to anyone looking for an attorney that has the ability to fight and win a DUI charge. She works tirelessly investigating her cases, and that work translates into exceptional results for her clients. Rebecca has repeatedly shown her willingness to fight for clients that other lawyers would have simply given up on. For example, within our practice area, cases in which the breath test is admissible at trial are regarded by many to be the most difficult to win. Consequently, many lawyers are afraid or simply unwilling to try those cases. Rebecca regularly goes to trial on these very difficult cases, and she has produced some exceptional results. If you need a lawyer with the skill to win your DUI case, Rebecca Kozycki is an excellent choice. I cannot say enough positive things about her."

"I cannot say enough great things about Rebecca Kozycki. She has the passion and ability to effectively defend her clients and to obtain FANTASTIC results. She has the saavy to negotiate great deals and the tenacity to take a prosecutor to the mat during trial. Rebecca recently won her client a not-guilty verdict in Fulton county on a case where her client blew well above the legal limit. Think about this for a minute...her client, according to the State Admininstered breath test on the Intox 5000, was intoxicated and well-above the legal limit BUT Rebecca still walked her client out of the courtroom with a not guilty verdict!! Good attorneys win cases they should, Great attorneys win cases they shouldn't. This is a case that most experienced DUI lawyers would not have been able to win, however, Rebecca, with the ability that she has, won the case. She is a great attorney!"
