CRIMINAL DEFENSE

 

An arrest is one of the most traumatic events an individual or family can endure. It can impact clients’ well-being, livelihood and future.  At The Secret Firm, P.C.  we are dedicated to obtaining the best possible outcome for each criminal defense client.

 

Our criminal defense team is led by Akil K. Secret, Esq., who has represented thousands of clients in cases ranging from misdemeanors to death penalty cases. He puts that experience to work protecting the rights of criminal defendants.

 

Attorney Akil K. Secret has established a stellar reputation as a bold and aggressive jury trial lawyer.  He has tried cases throughout the State of Georgia and in several other states.  His experience and knowledge in the court room has resulted in not guilty verdicts in both federal and state courts.

 

Our attorneys often are able to deal with the police before charges are filed, sometimes helping to limit charges that ultimately are brought against the client. We thoroughly investigate each case and present an honest assessment of a cases’ possible outcome. We have experience crafting aggressive and successful trial strategies and will pursue a favorable plea agreement or reduced sentence when it is appropriate.
