The Best Criminal Attorney in all Fascets

Criminal Defense

The Best Criminal Attorney in all Fascets

After reading numerous reviews online and calling around different attorneys in Atlanta, I knew from the initial phone conversation with Bubba that he was the right attorney for me. He was knowledgeable, personal, personable, and willing to work with my schedule and limited finances. He set realistic expectations, calmed my nerves about the whole situation and allowed me to pay scheduled payments that didn't break my bank account. In addition to helping me throughout the legal process- he went above and beyond to get me the best possible results for my case(s). Which resulted in minimal long-term effects on my life. I have the utmost respect for Bubba. Always refer him and the other criminal lawyers at Criminal Defense Matters when I have the opportunity. He is considered family and I cannot emphasize enough the importance of picking a great lawyer to defend you in your case. Do yourself the favor and call Bubba Head.
