As a former Senior Assistant District Attorney in the Fulton County District Attorney's Office, Attorney Dawn Scotland is a uniquely qualified Douglasville misdemeanor and felony defense attorney. Her experience as a prosecutor is a significant advantage to our clients because she can anticipate the tactics used by opposing counsel, and build strong legal strategies to defend against them. She also knows the areas where prosecutors have discretion in reducing charges or dismissing a case, as well as the types of cases that involve enhanced sentencing.
In addition to the unique experience of our firm's founder, Dawn Scotland, and our carefully vetted support attorneys, we offer attentive personal attention, counsel, and law-related life skills advice. This is particularly important in juvenile court cases where, had the accused child or teen been older, the conduct might have been considered a serious misdemeanor or felony offense punishable by strict incarceration penalties.
