Absolutely recommend Hendrick & Henry Law for any traffic violations you may be involved with. The best qualities: responsive, responsible, honest and fair. All I can say are positive qualities. My case almost over 2 years old and they never made me feel like they abandoned the case or that I was left on my own. 100% recommend them.

Working with Hendrick & Henry Law was the best decision I ever made. Everyone is helpful, kind, patient…I only have good things to say. Ben Mozingo was my lawyer, and he was an absolute pleasure to work with. My traffic citation was resolved quickly and painlessly. Can’t recommend enough!

They were absolutely amazing all around! I was about to lose my job because of a ticket I got that suspended my CDL. They were able to completely get it off my record and restore my CDL and my job! They were all very friendly and easy to deal with. I couldn’t recommend them enough!

What’s the Big Deal?

Why should I pay for an attorney in addition to possibly paying for fines?

Simple:

Because we’ll save you money. While it costs more up front to hire a lawyer when you receive a traffic ticket in Georgia, you’ll save more over time if they are successful in avoiding the consequences to your driving history. In addition to your fine, your insurance rates could increase anywhere from $400 to $1000 per year, over the next three (3) to seven (7) years. This is anywhere from $1200 to $7000 in savings you might be leaving on the table.

Many drivers don’t realize the hidden costs that follow a traffic citation until it’s too late. Convictions can also cause your life insurance rates to climb. And yes—you will have that dreaded “record” next time you’re in court. You don’t need to take our word for it. Call your insurance company to ask what might happen to your rate if you’re convicted of a ticket (hypothetically, of course!).

With some offenses, depending on the jurisdiction your case is in, it just does not make good sense to hire a lawyer. While we cannot ethically offer guarantees, our experienced network of attorneys know when we can likely add value vs. when we’ll just cost you extra. For more information or immediate help on your specific case, call our team now at 404-310-9795.

We do all the work and appear on your behalf. Whenever possible.
It’s that simple.
No cost consultation
No Office Visit Necessary
No stress for you

Our highly specialized traffic law division of our firm deals only with traffic and speeding issues. That means that our firms’ attorneys are actually practicing in the courts where your ticket will be prosecuted — day to day, month to month, and year to year.

For minor tickets, we’re extremely successful in avoiding any conviction and the corresponding points from being reported on your record. Aside from a couple signatures from you, we do all the work and appear on your behalf. Whenever possible. It’s that simple.

For more serious charges such as racing, reckless driving, and 100 mph+ speeding tickets, you may need to come to court with us depending on the judge. While we’ll swing for the fences to eliminate any record/points for these as well, sometimes a non-reporting result isn’t possible. In these circumstances, we fight tooth and nail to keep you out of custody, off probation, and to prevent your license from suspension.

Recently, we’ve seen a push by some data-mining companies to find infractions even if they are not on your driving record (other ticket defense firms won’t tell you this). They sell this information to your insurance company so they can raise your rates. At Hendrick and Henry, we do everything in our power to make this as difficult for your insurance company as we can.

(a) Whenever any person who has not previously been convicted of any offense under Article 2 or Article 3 of this chapter or of any statute of the United States or of any state relating to narcotic drugs, marijuana, or stimulant, depressant, or hallucinogenic drugs, pleads guilty to or is found guilty of possession of a narcotic drug, marijuana, or stimulant, depressant, or hallucinogenic drug, the court may without entering a judgment of guilt and with the consent of such person defer further proceedings and place him on probation upon such reasonable terms and conditions as the court may require, preferably terms which require the person to undergo a comprehensive rehabilitation program, including, if necessary, medical treatment, not to exceed three years, designed to acquaint him with the ill effects of drug abuse and to provide him with knowledge of the gains and benefits which can be achieved by being a good member of society. Upon violation of a term or condition, the court may enter an adjudication of guilt and proceed accordingly. Upon fulfillment of the terms and conditions, the court shall discharge the person and dismiss the proceedings against him. Discharge and dismissal under this Code section shall be without court adjudication of guilt and shall not be deemed a conviction for purposes of this Code section or for purposes of disqualifications or disabilities imposed by law upon conviction of a crime. Discharge and dismissal under this Code section may occur only once with respect to any person.

(b) Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, any person who is charged with possession of marijuana, which possession is of one ounce or less, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and punished by imprisonment for a period not to exceed 12 months or a fine not to exceed $1,000.00, or both, or public works not to exceed 12 months.

(c) Persons charged with an offense enumerated in subsection (a) of this Code section and persons charged for the first time with nonviolent property crimes which, in the judgment of the court exercising jurisdiction over such offenses, were related to the accused’s addiction to a controlled substance or alcohol who are eligible for any court approved drug treatment program may, in the discretion of the court and with the consent of the accused, be sentenced in accordance with subsection (a) of this Code section. The probated sentence imposed may be for a period of up to five years. No discharge and dismissal without court adjudication of guilt shall be entered under this subsection until the accused has made full restitution to all victims of the charged offenses. Discharge and dismissal under this Code section shall be without court adjudication of guilt and shall not be deemed a conviction for purposes of this Code section or for purposes of disqualifications or disabilities imposed by law upon conviction of a crime. Discharge and dismissal under this Code section may not be used to disqualify a person in any application for employment or appointment to office in either the public or private sector.
