About Mickey

Mickey Roberts has been practicing law since 1980 and is a member of the State Bar of Georgia as well as the Gwinnett County Bar. A native of Gwinnett County, a suburb of Atlanta, GA., he graduated from Mercer University cum laude, attended Woodrow Wilson College of Law, and at the age of 23, established his law firm. He was the Judge for the City of Lilburn for 15 years before retiring in 1997. Mickey Roberts was also the Judge for the City of Suwanee for 14 years before retiring in December, 2000.

Since 1995, his law practice has been limited to aggressively defending persons wrongly accused of driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol or drugs, vehicular homicide, and other traffic related crimes.

Mickey Roberts is recognized by judges and his peers as a leading DUI Defense lawyer in the State of Georgia, and counties within the metropolitan Atlanta area. Mickey Roberts obtained one of the most favorable defense appellate decisions in Georgia, State v. Tousley (involving the admission of the HGN field test). He is a member of the National College for DUI Defense (NCDD), as well as Defense of Drinking Drivers (DODD), an exclusive invitation-only association of DUI Defense Attorneys. Mr. Roberts is also a regular speaker at DUI Defense Seminars, and the author of several DUI Defense articles.

Since January 1996, his record shows more than 90% of the contested DUI’s Mickey Roberts has handled have resulted in a not guilty verdict, a dismissal, or a plea to a lesser offense.

Review Mickey Grady Roberts

My Recommendation for Mickey Roberts

Mickey was recommended to me by a friend who is an attorney. I liked Mickey immediately after meeting him in his office. He is friendly, down to earth, and easy to understand. Afterwards, I never had a problem reaching Mickey and if leaving a message, he returned my call in a timely manner - even once when he was on vacation. This attorney helped me during a tough time after my daughter received 2 DUI's. I cannot say enough good things about Mickey. I highly recommend him.

I had a traffic case that could have had a serious outcome. I was referred to Mickey by another attorney I trust. Mickey handled my case swiftly and professionally and was able to settle the case to my satisfaction. His years of experience and relationships within the local judicial system cannot be understated. Highly recommended.

I hired Mickey to represent my son teenage son on a questionable underage possession charge when I believed the original attorney we hired was too quick to encourage a plea agreement. I thought his experience defending DUIs would bring different insight. (The charges were eventually dropped.) Mickey was always very easy to reach and returned calls promptly.

After my first conversation, until the final “Not Guilty” verdict, I knew I had made the right decision to entrust my future with Mickey. He has a very professional demeanor but with a personal touch. It was obvious once seeing him in action why he is so successful but even more evident once the jury surrounded him after the trial was over asking for his business cards. My wife continues to refer to him as “The Rock Star”.

Mickey represented me and took what was an unfortunate situation on my part and did an oustanding job. We went to a jury trial in Gwinnett and honestly things didn't look to promising but the outcome was remarkable. I recently reccomended Mickey to two people seeking a lawyer and to my knowledge they are pleased as well. There is nothing fond about needing a lawyer but I suggest if you do you speak with Mr. Roberts.

Mickey is a Fabulous attorney, very knowledgeable and gives you such a sense of relief when he accepts your case. He is always straight up and forthcoming with information wether it is good, bad or ugly. He is also very compassionate for each individual situation. Mickey is definitely the right attorney for you.

Had a question regarding NDR and Interstate Compact rules since his website comes up when you search for that content on Google. Contacted him through his website and left vmail. Over a week later no response.

Mickey has been practicing DUI defense longer than anyone in Gwinnett County and fights hard for his clients. He is well liked by not only his peers in the criminal defense community, but prosecutors and judges as well. I highly endrose him.

Gus McDonald, DUI and DWI Attorney on Jun 9, 2011
Relationship: Worked together on matter

Mickey Roberts is one of the most "connected" lawyers in Metro Atlanta. Mickey is known as a tough adversary in the court room by all prosecutors. Mickey has tried over 100 cases to verdict and has the respect of all Judges in this State. Mickey is able to get more dismissals than any other lawyer in metro Atlanta. If you want a dismissal or Not Guilty verdict and if you can afford him (worth it) he is the lawyer for you. gus mcdonald

I endorse this lawyer's work. Mickey has an excellent reputation in the legal community. I have personally watched him in court, and his style is very effective, with judges and juries alike.

I have know Mickey for years, and no attorney gets better results. He is at the forefront of every modern DUI defense used today. He is well respected in the legal community by both fellow attorneys and opposing counsel. He has my 100% support.

Charles Scholle, DUI and DWI Attorney on May 7, 2009

Mickey is a class act. He is knowledgeable, charismatic and can think on his feet. Mickey truly loves his work and his zeal for his clients is unmatched. I have known Mickey for 15 years and believe him to be one of the finest lawyers I have seen. I endorse and recommend him without reservation.

Charles Magarahan, DUI and DWI Attorney on Jun 20, 2008
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

Mickey Roberts is my idol. I wish that I could grow up and be him. He is a successful lawyer with a wonderful family, has a low golf handicap, and can run circles around prosecutors in the defense of DUI cases. He is a former judge, and knows all there is to know about defending DUI cases in Gwinnett County especially, but in Georgia also. I don't think anyone can go wrong with Mickey handling the case.
