Driving-related crimes can carry far more than just fines or points on your license—many are prosecuted as serious misdemeanors or even felonies in Georgia. If you’re facing charges like DUI, reckless driving, fleeing the scene, or driving on a suspended license, the stakes are high and the consequences can follow you for years.
What seems like a routine traffic stop can quickly escalate into a criminal case. That’s why it’s critical to have a defense attorney who understands the law, the local courts, and how to challenge everything from the traffic stop itself to the evidence gathered against you.
At Morrison & Hughes, we help clients fight serious traffic-related charges, avoid jail time, protect their licenses, and move forward with confidence.

Georgia takes traffic offenses seriously—especially those that involve safety risks, repeat offenses, or intentional disregard for the law. Many of these charges can result in license suspension, criminal records, and even jail time.
Common serious driving offenses include:
In many cases, these offenses are enhanced if someone was injured, if children were in the vehicle, or if you have prior convictions.
The consequences of a conviction can be harsh and may include:
A conviction can also affect your job, insurance rates, and ability to travel or obtain a professional license.
