Criminal Defense
2002 COTI Award, Georgia Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, awarded to lawyers in the most significant criminal case of the year, for work in State of Georgia v. Timothy Dawson, 274 Ga. 327 (2001).
DUI/DWI
Traffic offenses are where the average citizen comes into contact with the criminal justice system. DUI or DWI cases are taken very seriously by the courts. In fact in misdemeanor courts drunk driving is considered their most important cases. Some of this is due to the pressure and lobbying done by special interest groups such as Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD). These groups actually post monitors in the courts to make sure judges are tough on drunk drivers. That is why you need to take these cases seriously. They can result not only in the loss of your driver's license but in increased insurance costs, having to perform community service work, and even jail time. Perhaps the worse effect is to have a DUI or DWI on your history. It does not look good to employers.

Robbery
The State of Georgia v. Brigido Soto, Hall County Superior Court, Case No. 02CR712, Judge John Girardeau. The Mexican Capital Legal Assistance Program (MCLAP) retained Mr. West because they feared that Mr. Soto was one of those Mexican nationals most likely to receive the death sentence. Mr. West, with assistance from the Southern Center for Human Rights (SCHR), successfully defended Mr. Soto who was accused of shooting two men in a drug deal gone badly.
Burglary
The State of Georgia v. Jamie Weis, Pike County Superior Court, Case No. 06R097. Mr. Weis was accused of killing an elderly neighbor in a foiled burglary. The State sought the death penalty.

The plea was negotiated by District Attorney Paul Howard.
Hit and Run

Workers Compensation
Mr. West does not represent clients with workers compensation claims directly, but can refer you to lawyers who specialize in that area of the law.

Personal Injury
If you are a victim of someone else's negligence your ability to recover is dependent upon your personal injury lawyer being able to prove your case and damages. Thomas M. West is a litigator, and therefore will prepare each and every case he handles in the manner to prepare all cases for trial. If you cannot prove another party is responsible for your injury, your case will end there. Therefore, it is very important that you find the right personal injury attorney to build a strong case for you to meet the "burden of proof".
