ProAbout John
Beware of Atlanta area attorneys trying to get you to hire them for a Columbus, Georgia case. Local attorneys have more success - that's simply a fact. I was born and raised in Columbus, and have been practicing here for 19 years.
Practice areas
- DUI and DWI: 60%
Georgia State Patrol Nighthawks Task Force are in Columbus and giving more DUIs than every before in Columbus. If you get a "Nighthawk DUI" you need an experienced local DUI attorney.
- Personal injury: 40%
Car Wreck injuries a specialty. Also lead counsel on the largest slip and fall verdict in the history of Muscogee County.
