GREAT LAWYER, GREAT EXPERIENCE!!

I have only great things to say about James Yeargan. He is quick to respond, will text you if you prefer, gets things done fast and diligently. So far my experience has been smooth sailing, even with something as terrible as a DUI!!

Court case entirely dismissed

I want to thank DUI JIM for your help in representing me. With a blood alcohol of .19 and driving a car with two flat tires, every attorney I spoke to said my case was hopeless. Not only did you prevail at the department of Motor Vehicles, allowing me to keep my license, but they were able to get my ...court case entirely dismissed.

Don't Get a DUI in Georgia!

In December 2012, after receiving a DUI while on a business trip to Georgia, I contacted several attorneys for legal advise on how to be represented on this out of state charge. I was told by every one of them that my only option would be to plead guilty and hope for a lenient sentence. Georgia was t...he worst possible place to get a DUI charge in their experience. So, with two weeks before trial, I hired a local attorney to represent me and plead me out. When he quit returning my calls I began to get a very bad feeling about him handling my case. I was very worried and knew there had to be a better way. After lots of additional research I found your web site and that was when I found my first ray of hope! You were the only attorney I spoke with that had experience in working with the local DA and also had consistent success on tough cases. In my case, the DUI charge was solid and I did not see much hope in fighting it. I cannot tell you enough how your firm's persistence, patience, confidence and hard work saved me. You chipped away on the case until we finally got a break. I truly believe that your understanding of the DUI trial process and the way you handled the case saved me from a conviction. Even when my first attorney was one day away from going to trial to plead me out, you picked up the case that day before trial, executed all the attorney transfer papers and got us the time extension we needed to properly work on the case. Over the next 12 months you worked the case very professionally and gathered the evidence we needed to build our case. When you called to tell me the charge had been reduced to a reckless driving I could hardly believe it. In addition, there was no community service or driving class time that I had to do.

Hiring you as my DUI attorney was a fantastic

From the beginning of my case to the end, everything was handled in a timely and professional manner. This was my first run in with the law and I am very happy to say that I do not have any type of criminal conviction on my permanent record. Hiring you as my DUI attorney was a fantastic decision and ...I am thankful! I pray that I do not need your services again, but I would not hesitate to hire you again.”
