Defending Clients Against Felony and Misdemeanor Crimes

At the Law Office of Christy R. Jindra, LLC, we have significant experience helping clients successfully resolve criminal charges. Criminal defense lawyer Christy Jindra is a former prosecutor with a wealth of knowledge regarding criminal law and criminal procedure. He has tried many types of criminal cases in both Georgia and Illinois and defends clients against a wide range of charges, including:

Driving Under the Influence (DUI): As police get tougher about enforcement of the drunk driving laws, and prosecutors get tougher about prosecuting DUIs, more and more people are being charged with driving under the influence. In Georgia, the potential penalties for a DUI/DWI conviction are severe and can include fines, jail time, community service hours and suspension of your driver's license. We can help defend you against DUI charges and other traffic violations.

Drug Crimes: We provide an aggressive defense for clients facing drug charges such as drug possession, possession with intent to distribute, drug sales, marijuana cultivation, manufacture of methamphetamine, drug trafficking, and related charges such as money laundering and drug conspiracy. Whether you are accused of simple marijuana possession, selling crack cocaine, or trafficking heroin or another controlled substance or illegal drug, you need a solid advocate on your side from day one.

Violent Crimes: If you have been charged with assault, aggravated assault, domestic violence, battery, child abuse, causing great bodily harm, manslaughter, unlawful possession of a weapon, burglary, homicide or murder, our criminal defense lawyers have the experience needed to fight these serious charges.

Juvenile Crimes: We defend minors in juvenile court against criminal charges such as underage drinking, drinking and driving, DUI, public intoxication, truancy, assault, rape, sexual assault, theft, shoplifting and others.

Sex Crimes: From lewd conduct to first degree rape, our attorneys will fight to protect you against charges involving sexual misconduct. If you are convicted of sexual assault, statutory rape, child molestation, child abuse or another dangerous sexual offense, you face serious criminal punishments. In many cases a sex crime conviction will also require you to register with Georgia's Violent Sexual Offender Registry for the rest of your life.

Fraud and Computer Crimes: including solicitation of a minor, identity theft, credit card fraud, Medicare fraud, health care fraud, bank fraud, mortgage fraud, wire fraud, computer fraud, and other cyber crimes and Internet-related crimes

Theft Crimes: including shoplifting, retail theft, writing bad checks, check theft, robbery, vandalism, damage to property, embezzlement, employee theft and other property crimes
