Alternative Sentencing Attorney
Georgia Attorney for Alternative Sentencing
Depending on the criminal charges they face, people convicted of crimes may be eligible to seek alternative penalties that can keep them out of jail or prison, allow them to keep their licenses or shorten their sentences. At my Georgia law firm, I seek alternative sentences for clients whenever possible. As a lawyer since 1990, I have the knowledge and experience to develop effective and persuasive cases for alternative sentencing.
At the Tierney Law Firm, I help people charged with criminal offenses evaluate their choices. For example, if the state is offering a reduced prison sentence in return for accepting a plea bargain, I will explain the advantages and disadvantages of this option. If a client agrees to voluntarily enroll in drug or alcohol counseling, the prosecution may reduce DUI or drug crime charges. I thoroughly discuss options such as these with my clients, helping them understand the pros and cons.
Contact my law office today online or by telephone at 866-754-3070 to learn more about alternative sentencing. I serve clients in the Atlanta area from my law office in Peachtree City.
Alternative Sentencing Options
The options available to you depend on the criminal charges. I have helped clients whose cases were:
- Diverted to drug court
- Mediated using an alternative dispute resolution technique
- Resolved through a first offenders program
I explore all the non-judicial remedies available to you, developing a strong case for alternative sentencing. I also encourage clients to both help themselves and show their determination to stay straight by enrolling them in drug treatment programs or rehab. This approach is especially valuable with high school students and people charged with possession of small amounts of drugs. Combining proposals for alternative sentencing with an aggressive drug crime defense can be an effective strategy for many clients, including those involved in juvenile law matters.
