Excellent Attorney

Gregory Bushway is dedicated to providing strong legal representation and advocating tirelessly for the interests of his clients. As an attorneys who is committed to his clients' cases he will bring a wealth of expertise and the determination to achieve favorable outcomes. If you're considering his ...services or working with him, it could be reassuring to know he's focused on fighting for his clients' rights and interests. Finally, Mr. Bushway and his staff efforts to instill hope and provide assurance to his clients that justice will prevail in their cases is a blessing. This commitment I discovered was crucial in my legal matters throughout the legal process. It's reassuring to have an attorney who genuinely believes in and works towards achieving justice for their clients.

Amazing job!

They did everything I had hoped for plus went the extra mile. They stayed in constant contact and took all the legal stress away from us. I’m definitely keeping them in my contacts! Thank you both so much!!

Best criminal attorney in Macon Ga

Mr. Bushway is very professional and experienced. He got three NOT GUILTY verdicts for my son on three serious felony charges. If you need an attorney, this is the WAY to go.... BushWAY & WAYstack

Lack of communication

Gregory does not like to return phone calls and is consisting pointing the finger and blaming others for his lack of professionalism. We does not like to meet with clients who request meetings with him and just wants to wait until the very last minute to do anything. Gregory lacks focus.

Criminal defense lawyer | Aug 02

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I've known Gregory Bushway for greater than 7 years. He is a consummate professional. Gregory takes great pride, not only in achieving his clients' goals, but helping to improve their respective place in life through his sound counsel. He is bold in his zealous representation. I have opposed him repeatedly over the past few years. He is very knowledgeable, and any person who uses his services will find themselves in great hands. Powerful litigation skills coupled with courtroom prowess equals second to none legal help. These skills are a dying art, and he has truly captured it. I wholeheartedly endorse him. You will not regret your decision to seek his counsel."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"As a former prosecutor, Gregory is a true expert in all areas of criminal law. Anyone in need of a criminal attorney would be lucky to have Gregory fighting for them and advising them. Also, he listens to his clients and gets to know them so he will be able to provide the best defense in every case. I strongly endorse this lawyer."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Gregory since about 2001 when he was still a prosecutor for Jones County. He has always been fair and ethical and a pleasure to work with. In more recent years we have conferred with each other on defense matters and he continues to display the utmost professionalism and to fight for his clients. He is one of the best defense attorneys in Macon."
