I had the honor and privilege of working with Mr. Mitchell for 6 years. He has tremendous trial experience across a wide variety of criminal cases. I have spent many hours reviewing cases and the law with Mr. Mitchell, and it has always impressed me with his insights and creativity with regards to strategy and theory. He is a bulldog in the courtroom, not just because he went to Georgia, but he will never stop fighting for his clients. When his back is against the wall, he figures out a way to fight back and usually win. I would recommend him to anyone facing criminal charges.

Attorney Mitchell is a warrior. As his former colleague, I have witnessed how hard he fights for his clients. He always conducts a thorough investigation of all his cases leaving no stone unturned. He is not intimidated by prosecutors, judges or opposing counsel. As a result, his clients will never be bullied by anyone into accepting a less favorable outcome. I’ve watched Attorney Mitchell several times in court. A passionate advocate, his clients feel empowered whenever he’s standing by their side. With his strong advocacy skills, Attorney Mitchell has won countless pretrial motions, hearings and jury trials for his clients. He has also earned the respect of all the judges and lawyers in the Augusta area. His reputation proceeds him so opposing counsel knows they are in for a fight if Attorney Mitchell is in the case. Whenever someone asks me if I know a good lawyer in the Augusta area I always recommend Attorney Mitchell.
