First Offenses

Georgia DUI First Offense Defense Attorney

For many of my clients, a DUI/DWI arrest is the only time they will ever be arrested. People come into my office typically worried about two things: "Will I go to jail?" and "When can I drive again?" Too many people make the mistake of thinking they can figure out their case on their own. Doing this could have a serious negative affect on your future. My name is Tom Barton and I can help you with the difficult legal process and move on with your life. My law practice has been helping people arrested for a DUI/DWI first offense in the Atlanta, Ga., area since 1991.
