Burglary – Theft Arrest in Douglas & Fitzgerald

In most theft cases, there is a limited window of opportunity for your robbery defense attorney to act before local officials make a their final decision as to the severity of the charges being brought against you. In Georgia, the First Offender Act and the state’s conditional discharge statute may allow our lawyer to seek a deferred adjudication that allows you to successfully complete the sentence imposed without judgment of guilt. For clients in Fitzgerald, Abbeville, Tifton, McRae, Adel, Ocilla, Sylvester, Nashville, Moultrie, Hazlehurst, Cordele, Ashburn and Douglas, that can mean a dismissal of charges and no inclusion of the conviction on their permanent record.
