BEST defense attorney in GA - Phenomenal results
Lee is simply the best DUI defense attorney in Georgia. He's professional, knowledgeable, and understands the system. The outcome in my case was even better than expected. Lee is always personally available - which is very comforting going through a legal process such as this, and as an attorney, I k...

He was great and very knowledgable. He was calm and kept me at ease throughout the whole process. I hope I never have to use him again but if I have a need I will definitely call him.

absolutely THE BEST DUI lawyer around
I recently hired Lee Webb for the second time for a DUI charge. After working with him twice I can say that he is, without a doubt, the only lawyer I'd ever want to represent me in this scenario. Facing a second DUI charge is incredibly stressful. However, with Lee on your team, you can have peace of...
Jerry Lee Webb Jr.'s Lawyer Endorsements
"Lee is an amazing trial attorney who doesn't back down. He gets fantastic results for his clients!"
"I prosecuted cases with Lee as opposing counsel, and he was one of the best attorneys I handled cases against. He is a tough advocate for his clients, but also knows how to talk to prosecutors to get results for his clients. He has a ton of experience around Atlanta and Athens, and knows all the prosecutors and Judges. I endorse Lee Webb!"
"Lee is one of the most experienced DUI lawyers in the State of Georgia."
"I endorse this lawyer. Lee is a highly skilled trial lawyer. I've never seen anyone do a better job cross examining a police officer than Lee. He is always prepared well for motion hearings and trial. Lee is widely respected in the legal community by prosecutors, defense lawyers, and police officers. This helps Lee achieve remarkable results for his clients."
"Lee Webb is the best. He has great relationships with police officers and Solicitors - one of the most important parts of being able to avoid a DUI conviction for his clients. He is an aggressive advocate and always well prepared. He works hard for his clients and has built an impressive reputation in the legal community."
"I endorse this lawyer. He's an expert in his field and the lawyer to whom we refer DUI/DWI and other criminal matters."
"Lee takes the time to research his cases, exhausting every possible resource to get the best results for his clients. He has an excellent reputation in the legal community. Prosecutors think twice when they know Lee is working a case. If you are thinking of hiring Lee, do it. You will be very happy with your choice."
"I endorse this lawyer. Lee gets the job done."
"I endorse this lawyer. He is a guy who will go the distance. When I was a prosecutor I knew my job got a lot harder when he waled into the courtroom."
"I endorse and recommend Lee Webb. Lee is an excellent attorney and has mastered DUI law. Many years ago I faced Lee regularly in court as a prosecutor. At trial he is a tireless warrior for his client. Lee gets the best results for his clients every time."
"Lee was my law clerk before he joined my firm. He helped me write the Georgia DUI Trial Practice Manual, when I self-published it. He is possibly the best lawyer for handling a bench trial in a DUI case that I have every watched "in action." An officer who is unprepared for the machine-gun speed cross-examination that is about to occur very much resembles a squirrel trying to cross a busy expressway. His recent industry recognition as a Super Lawyer is well-deserved and long overdue."
"I endorse this lawyer. Lee is an experienced lawyer and great communicator. He is consistently creative in that he always seems to come up with a good result-- even in tough cases. Lee is solid."
"I endorse this lawyer. Outstanding trial skills. Very good lawyer for any criminal defense matter. Professional, practical, well worth every penny."
"I endorse this lawyer. This is one of the best in the business and I highly endorse him! If you're in trouble you'll be in great hands with Lee Webb."
"I endorse Jerry. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."
"Lee is a very creative lawyer who can do serious damage to the State at a bench trial. Lee has worked with the very best law firm in the Southeastern U.S.. Lee has a very keen way of presenting a difficult issue to a judge and jury. Lee is a little more expensive than some lawyers because he has literally hundreds of wins and dismissals. Pay a little more for the very best results. gus"
"Lee is one of the best DUI lawyers in Georgia. He will fight for you and make sure that you get a top notch defense. Lee's reputation and that of his firm speaks for itself. You will be in good hands."
"I endorse this lawyer. He is one of the few I trust enough to refer my clients to for DUIs."
"I endorse this lawyer. Lee Webb is a fearless, well respected DUI attorney. he truly fights for his clients and gets resutls!"
"Lee Webb is fearless. I have watched him try cases with just a judge (bench trial) and with a jury. You have to know the nuances of the courtrooms to be able to take a chance on a bench trial in front of some of our judges. Lee was doing that 10 or 15 years ago; before I had the sense to assess the situation and figure out which judge to trust with a trial and which judge needs to have a jury between him and the defendant. Lee has an uncanny ability to figure it out. He is a partner in a large DUI defense law firm, and enjoys the support of his staff and the other lawyers there. I would trust Lee to try any DUI case. That is... If you can't get me to do it. C."
