Atlanta Criminal Law

If you've been arrested for a criminal offense in Atlanta or anywhere else in Georgia, the prosecutor must have had reasonable grounds to believe you've committed one. You may be arrested at the crime scene or after an arrest warrant has been issued in your name, depending on the situation and the specific Georgia criminal law involved. While an investigation is typically the first step in federal criminal cases, some state criminal cases, such as DUI, begin with an arrest based on probable cause. When a grand jury finds that there is probable cause to charge and arrest you for a crime, you will be arrested. Defendants should expect an arraignment, which is a preliminary hearing before a judge after they have been charged.
