Felonies

Serious Defense for Serious Charges

Felonies Lawyer Atlanta

Being accused of a felony in Georgia is one of the most life-changing experiences a person can face. Felony charges carry severe penalties that can include long-term imprisonment, heavy fines, and permanent damage to your personal and professional life. When your freedom, reputation, and future are at stake, having the right defense strategy can make all the difference.

At Rock Remson Law, we represent individuals charged with felonies across Atlanta, GA, and surrounding areas. We approach every case with the preparation, precision, and dedication necessary to protect your rights at every stage of the legal process.

Understanding Felony Charges in Georgia

A felony is a criminal offense punishable by more than one year in prison. Georgia classifies crimes based on severity, and felonies are the most serious category.

Common felony offenses include:

  • Drug trafficking or distribution

  • Armed robbery or burglary

  • Aggravated assault or battery

  • Fraud or embezzlement

  • Vehicular homicide or serious injury by vehicle

  • Weapons violations

  • Repeat DUI offenses

  • Sex crimes

Felony cases often involve complex evidence, multiple witnesses, and aggressive prosecution. Our role is to examine every detail of the case, identify weaknesses in the state’s arguments, and protect our client’s rights from the moment of arrest through trial.

Georgia’s Felony Sentencing and Consequences

Felony penalties depend on the type of crime, circumstances, and prior criminal record. A felony conviction may result in:

  • One year to life in prison, or in extreme cases, the death penalty.

  • Fines ranging from $1,000 to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

  • Probation or parole conditions with strict compliance requirements.

  • Loss of civil rights, including the right to vote or own a firearm.

  • Permanent criminal record, affecting employment, housing, and professional licenses.

Georgia does not take felony charges lightly. Even a single mistake can impact your future permanently, which is why immediate legal representation is crucial.

Common Defenses in Felony Cases

A strong felony defense can involve multiple approaches depending on the facts. Common strategies include:

  • Lack of evidence – The state must prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

  • Constitutional violations – If evidence was obtained illegally, it may be excluded.

  • Mistaken identity – Eyewitnesses and reports can be unreliable.

  • Self-defense or justification – Especially in violent crime cases.

  • False accusations – Sometimes motivated by personal disputes or misunderstandings.

Our firm investigates all possible defenses, aiming to weaken the prosecution’s position and secure a fair result.

Felony Record Consequences and Expungement Options

A felony conviction can follow you for life. It can limit job opportunities, affect housing applications, and lead to social stigma. While Georgia does not allow expungement for most felonies, certain cases may qualify for record restriction or other post-conviction relief.

At Rock Remson Law, we help clients explore these options after their case concludes, working to minimize long-term harm.

Our Legal Process: Personalized and Strategic

Every felony case is different — and each one requires careful attention. At Rock Remson Law, we follow a proven process to develop strong defense strategies and protect our clients’ rights.

Case Evaluation

We begin by reviewing the full scope of your case — the charges, evidence, arrest details, and statements. This step helps us identify legal and procedural issues that may work in your favor.

Evidence Review

Our team examines body camera footage, police reports, forensics, and witness statements to uncover inconsistencies or errors. In many cases, law enforcement mishandles evidence or violates proper protocol, which can be grounds for suppression.

Defense Strategy

We develop a clear, tailored defense strategy to challenge the prosecution’s narrative. Whether it’s negotiating reduced charges or preparing for trial, our focus is always on achieving the best possible outcome.

Negotiation and Litigation

Some cases can be resolved through negotiation or plea discussions that reduce penalties. Others require aggressive courtroom advocacy. We’re prepared to defend your rights at every stage — from arraignment to trial.
