DUI Defense Experience

Criminal trials, plea negotiations, and a life committed to defending people charged with alcohol and drug related offenses provided Attorney Michael Hawkins with the experience required for Certification as one of Georgia's leading DUI Defense attorneys. That rigorous testing process was surpassed much quicker for Mike than most attorneys, perhaps due in part to his years of preparation for trials as a prosecutor in Atlanta, Georgia; the more than 200 cases for which he served as lead counsel; his appointment to the Prosecuting Attorney's Council Faculty in 1995; and the many seminars he has taught for both prosecutors and defense attorneys across the United States.

Mike credits much of his success in defending DUI, alcohol, and drug-related cases to his experience as a DUI prosecutor and his commitment to out-preparing the prosecution.
