DUI/DWI
A DUI offense is a serious criminal charge with related consequences. If law enforcement spots a vehicle weaving on the road or an individual driving erratically, they have the right to pull a suspected drunken driver over to the side of the road. They may ask the driver to submit to a sobriety test by performing simple physical and mental tasks. Officers may conduct a breathalyzer test to determine the amount of alcohol content in the driver. A blood alcohol level of.08% or higher indicates the driver is legally drunk and too intoxicated to operate a motor vehicle safely. The officers may arrest the driver and charge him or her with a DUI. A driver who refuses to take a test to measure alcohol levels can face an automatic one-year driver's license suspension.
Traffic Violations
Were you handed a ticket or citation for a serious traffic violation? Or, were you placed in handcuffs and brought back to the police station after being accused of committing a traffic offense? You need to prepare to stand up for yourself, or else the prosecution will walk right over your case.
Sex Crimes
Sex crimes are serious and if convicted the penalties can be harsh. A sex offender must register with local law enforcement and check in periodically at scheduled times. The sex offender registry makes known to the public the address and other information about the offender. A convicted sex offender cannot change residence without prior permission, work in jobs that involve children, and must stay a certain distance away from schools, public playgrounds, and public swimming pools. The penalties for sex-related crimes are jail or prison time, probation, and court ordered treatment and rehabilitation.
Fraud
Many of these charges can include additional penalties, depending on the nature of the crime. Those involving weapons or where crossing state lines – such as in credit card fraud – occur, can result in federal charges and multiple counts. All of these can add greatly to the potential sentence that someone convicted of the crime may face.
Robbery
As a prosecutor, Mr. Reed tried all types of cases, from DUI to Domestic Violence; from Drug Possession to Robbery; from Armed Robbery to Murder. Mr. Reed developed a positive name for himself within the legal community in Savannah. He, however, decided to focus his experience and expertise representing people who had been charged with crimes by the State of Georgia and the United States of America.
Burglary
Client charged with a residential burglary and the prosecutor, after a thorough investigation by Mr. Reed's office, and negotiations with the prosecutor, agreed to reduce the offense to a misdemeanor theft by taking.
Theft
Misdemeanors
Getting arrested is often a very difficult experience. Your personal freedom is taken away and you face the prospect of having to deal with criminal charges being brought against you. When you are arrested, either on a felony or misdemeanor charge, you have the right to post bond or participate in a hearing to determine if bond should be posted/the bond amount.
Drug Crimes
Drug possession is one of the major causes of arrests in both Georgia and across the United States. The scourge of drugs continues to affect people of all ages, races, religions and social classes. Typically it is a felony offense to make, distribute, sell, possess or use drugs. Under Georgia law, it is a felony to possess substances such as cocaine, heroin, methamphetamines, marijuana, LSD and peyote. First time offenders often face 2-15 years behind bars, while repeat offenders face 5-30 years, and a mandatory driver's license suspension.
Assault
In Georgia, the Family Violence Act defines the following activities as being part of domestic abuse: battery, simple battery, felonies, stalking, unlawful restraint, damage to property, simple assault or criminal trespass. These acts are considered part of domestic violence if they are conducted against: past or present spouses, parents or children, foster parents or foster children, stepparents or stepchildren, or other people who live in or used to live in the same house.
Murder
For example, the Government charged Mr. Reedâ€™s client with aggravated assault and aggravated battery, two of the most serious crimes in Georgia, short of Murder. Mr. Reedâ€™s client, from the very beginning, said she was acting in self-defense. No one would listen, except Mr. Reed. After a six day jury trial, the jury also listened. The jury, as a compromise, found her guilty of misdemeanors. The case was very emotional and difficult for Mr. Reedâ€™s client and for the jury. One juror cried in the back of the courtroom, wanting to acquit Mr. Reedâ€™s client; another juror came up to Mr. Reed in the courtroom, before he could leave, and said he would hire Mr. Reed if he had been charged with a crime. The only offer to Mr. Reedâ€™s client was 20 years with 10 years to serve in prison.
Juvenile Crimes
It is important to have legal representation immediately following accusations of juvenile crimes. Parents or guardians need to contact a Canton criminal defense attorney for legal guidance and assistance immediately following a suspected juvenile criminal offense. A criminal conviction can affect a youth for the remainder of his or her life. Many careers such as law enforcement, armed forces, and other types of professions that require a clean criminal past and other qualifications may be unavailable to a youth convicted of juvenile crimes. Benjamin Bradley Reed has a vast amount of experience in the area of criminal law and defends many clients against juvenile crimes.
Probation Violation
An individual found guilty of probation violations can face increased penalties of an order to return to jail or prison to serve additional time. Brad Reed understands the probation system and offers professional legal services that help many clients at each step of the court proceedings. He works closely with his clients and focuses his attention on each case. He has extensive experience working in the criminal court system including working for the state prosecution in the past.
Homicide
In Georgia, traffic offenses can constitute a misdemeanor or a felony, depending on the crime that allegedly took place. For example, vehicular homicide will likely be charged as a felony, especially if you are accused of causing a vehicular death due to being drunk behind the wheel.
Arson
Violent crimes can include murder, manslaughter, aggravated assault, aggravated battery, arson, kidnapping, terroristic threats, terroristic acts, battery or simple battery. The circumstances and degree of violence can affect the sentencing in a violent crimes case as well as the age of the victim, use of weapons during the offense, and other factors related to the violent crime.
Shoplifting
Client charged with Theft by Shoplifting and felony Obstruction, fighting with a police officer, and after negotiations with the prosecutor, the felony was dismissed and the client will plea to the misdemeanor
Kidnapping
Manslaughter
Internet Crimes
Hit and Run
Factors that can influence the severity of sentencing include multiple DUIs, a DUI caused hit and run accident, a DUI traffic collision that injures or kills others, underage DUI, or the presence of minors in the vehicle at the time of the DUI.

Property Damage
The laws do not allow a juvenile the same rights as adults when facing criminal charges. Juveniles do not have the right to a public proceeding or a jury but they do have the right to face a hostile witness and receive a fair hearing from a judge. Most crimes committed by juveniles include theft, property damage, internet crimes, alcohol use, illegal drug activities, violent acts, gang-related activities, or sex crimes.
