You get what you pay for.

The timing of my DUI could not have been worse. I had been planning a big change in my life, to move to Europe to work in a family business. Plus, my sales job in Atlanta required me to be able to drive. I started looking for an attorney, and asked several friends who to call. Of the 5 recommendation...s, 4 were to Bubba Head's office. I interview with Bubba and the other lawyer that had been suggested. Although Bubba was more than twice as expensive as the other lawyer, I hired Bubba. Their approaches to my case were dramatically different. Bubba wanted to make sure that I did not end up with a DUI. The other lawyer told me that he could delay the case until I moved to Europe, and then (when I was no longer available to court) he would seek to get the case dropped. I went with Bubba, and he was able to keep my Georgia license even after I refused the breth tests. Then, he did get a deal struck that allowed me to do all of the conditions, such as the 20 hour driving course, community service and alcohol screening for a reckless plea, and let me do that by mailing an affidavit form and a money order for the fines. I now live in Moscow, and have no DUI on my record. If I decide to come back to the US, i won't have to be looking over my shoulder for the authorities. You get what you pay for. AB

Excellence

William Head's commitment to excellence is unwavering to say the least. His knowledge of your rights in regards to DUI law is unmatched. He provides not only highest level of representation but truly cares about his clients. “Bubba” is with you the entire process unlike other attourneys that turn and... burn their clients. The results he provided in my case were far better than I could have ever expected and I would recommend his services highly! "Excellence is the result of caring more than others think is wise, risking more than others think is safe, dreaming more than others think is practical, and expecting more than others think is possible" - Mac Anderson

The One and Only DUI Lawyer

As New York parents of an 18-year old teenager who was attending Emory University in 2001, we had the frightening job of locating an attorney for our son, Jonathan, after he totaled the family SUV one night in a single vehicle accident on an overpass near the fraternity houses at Emory. His blood al...cohol level was 0.124, and the police immediately arrested him for DUI upon arriving at the scene. The legal limit in Georgia for drivers under age 21 was 0.02, so Jonathan’s breath test was six times the permissible amount. We called upon our New York business attorney for his help in locating an attorney in Georgia, and we told him that we wanted the very best attorney and that money was no object. He did some research and advised us to hire William C. Head, whom he described as “the one and only” attorney for such a difficult case. Mr. Head took control of this case and immediately laid out a strategy to push the case to trial in Dekalb County State Court, and to not utilize a jury. We were concerned, because we thought juries were better for trials. Mr. Head assured us that this was the better way to go. He was right. Mr. Head was successful, winning the DUI case entirely (both charges) at a bench trial with a fairly newly-appointed judge. He freed our son from a lifetime criminal history for DUI and helped us get some sleep again after the case was finally over. We have never personally met Mr. Head, but will vouch for his command of this area of law. We were thrilled with the happy and quick resolution he achieved. While we never want to experience such a problem again, if we ever hear of someone needing a DUI lawyer anywhere, we will call on Mr. Head for his advice and guidance. MK and IK

I am appreciative of Mr. Head’s expertise.

Before I was stopped for a DUI, I had great plans to travel to Switzerland, Thailand and Vietnam. The arrest put a screeching halt to my plans. I could go nowhere until the case was concluded. William Head and his staff members diligently pushed my case to a conclusion (reckless driving and not DU...I). I had some conditions to complete and paid a substantial fine, but the silver lining was: no DUI and no probation. I finally was able to take my “trip of a lifetime”. When I returned to Georgia, I was able to complete my real estate exam and become a licensed Realtor. This travel opportunity I am appreciative of Mr. Head’s expertise. He is truly a MASTER.

Thank You Sir

When I returned from Afghanistan, where I was with a military “special forces” unit, I was having difficulty shaking the images of war. I was drinking too much, and “frankly) was taking too many unnecessary risks. One night, after midnight, I drove my boss’s Porsche and was observed by an officer... as I drove through the Buckhead business district at 95 m.p.h Predictably, I was pulled over and later arrested because I had been drinking before driving. This was a very tough case, and my feeble explanation of why I was driving in such a dangerous manner was not well- received by the arresting officer. Miraculously, Mr. Head was able to get the DUI charge reduced to reckless driving. This saved my new job, and the entire incident helped me get out of the “rosk taking” business that I had engaged in on a daily basis in Afghanistan. With almost any other lawyer, I would have been stuck with a DUI. T.E.
