Robert James Trial Attorneys

Robert James spent the formative years of his legal career on the prosecution side of Georgia's justice system in positions of considerable consequence. As the former elected District Attorney of DeKalb County — one of the most demanding prosecutorial offices in the state, responsible for 8,000 felony cases per year — he supervised hundreds of prosecutors, served as lead counsel in some of DeKalb's highest-profile cases, and built a reputation recognized statewide. Before that, as Solicitor General of DeKalb County, he oversaw the prosecution of 13,000 misdemeanors annually and served as president of the Georgia Association of Solicitors General. The Fulton County Daily Report named him News Maker of the Year in 2013.

He also served as a litigation instructor for the Prosecuting Attorneys Council of Georgia — training the attorneys and law enforcement officials who build cases — which means that when Robert James Trial Attorneys evaluates a client's personal injury matter or criminal defense situation, it does so with an understanding of how the opposing forces think, how they build their arguments, and where those arguments are most vulnerable. The Atlanta firm handles personal injury cases across DeKalb, Fulton, Carroll County, and the surrounding communities, as well as criminal defense matters across the metropolitan area. With 25 years of legal experience inside Georgia's justice system and a team that includes attorney Daphne Dunning among its professionals, the firm is positioned to deliver the kind of representation that comes from knowing, with genuine precision, what it takes to win.
