Background

About Michael Barber

My practice consists of both criminal trial work and Civil trial Work. I began my apprenticeship under the family law firm in Dunwoody, Georgia. Initially, that law firm familiarized me with concepts under Debt Collection, Contracts and Agreements, Family Law and Real Estate. After working at the family firm for 20 years, as first a legal assistant and then an attorney, I decided to go out on my own. I obtained a position with the City of Atlanta Municipal Court and that foray into criminal law led to my criminal expertise including almost exclusively traffic, DUI and drug cases. As a legal assistant, former prosecutor and now a defense attorney I have spent a lot of time in the courtroom. As a Defense attorney I am extremely dedicated to my clients which makes my practice so unique and sought after (including a 24 hour contact line). My time is spent using my knowledge gained in defending the innocent in court against wrongful prosecution. If you’re faced with a DUI, drug, or other traffic charge it’s very important that you hire a lawyer. While you can hire any attorney wouldn’t you rather hire one who knows both sides of prosecution and defense? Wouldn’t you rather hire an attorney who not only knows the cops, but has also trained them? Wouldn’t you rather hire an attorney who has spent all night on the road working with the officers in your case? Wouldn’t you rather hire an attorney who has worked with and trained the prosecutor in your case? •Former DUI Prosecutor •Assigned to Atlanta’s DUI Prosecutorial Task Force •Atlanta DUI Task Force •Georgia State Patrol Task Force •Police Academy DUI Instructor •DUI Prosecutor Instructor •Atlanta DUI Advisory Task Force Committee Chairman •Certified NHTSA Field Sobriety Testing •Certified DUI and Drugs •Certified DUI Detection
