"Hands down the best defense lawyer around!"

I had 2 DUI's, texting while driving, speeding, and not having my license on me. Peter Zeliff fought for me and my freedom. He believed in me even though I had a Blood Alcohol of .13. I took the case to Trial by Jury, and we WON!!! I was only found guilty of speeding and not having my license on me which was okay with me because that was, in fact, the truth. THANK YOU, PETER ZELIFF! Hands down the best defense lawyer around.

"If you need and want justice for a crime that you have been accused of, then Peter Zeliff is the attorney for you."

If you need and want justice for a crime that you have been accused of, then Peter Zeliff is the attorney for you. I had been previously charged for a crime that I was not guilty of the charges. Mr. Zeliff and his staff handled my case professionally and were able to get the charges dismissed. He is an amazing attorney.

"Evan is the lawyer you need!"

Evan was a great attorney; he was helpful from the first time we came in for a consultation. He was always there for me when I called or texted him. Made things a lot less stressful and easy for me to understand what's going on and the situation I was in. He is very confident, knows what to do to help you out the best. Evan cares about you, and he will do his best to help you out as much as he can. I'm glad I chose him to be my attorney, he helped my case be dismissed. So before you call anyone else I'd give Evan a call, the best attorney there is in Cumming, Georgia.

"I highly recommend using Evan and his team"

Evan and his team were fantastic to work with. I am an out of state resident who needed assistance in the state of Georgia with the court systems. Evan charged me a fair price and expedited my needs as a top priority (even though it was minimal money for the firm). I highly recommend using Evan and his team for any representation you might find yourself in need of.

"Peter kept in touch with my family to make sure they were up to date on every aspect of my case."

I can never thank Peter Zeliff enough for his hard work and dedication, and without him, I am sure I would be in prison today. When I was unjustly accused of a probation violation, Peter worked tirelessly on my behalf to make sure that I was released and all charges dropped. He treated me with respect and even visited me in jail on a Saturday and Sunday. Peter kept in touch with my family to make sure they were up to date on every aspect of my case. After spending a lot of money for attorneys who were more interested in what I paid, it was nothing short of a miracle for me to find an honest, trustworthy attorney who is on my side and believes that I deserve justice.

"I trusted Peter through the entire DUI legal process, even when the end was nowhere in sight, and today we claimed victory!"

Peter Zeliff came highly recommended by William Head, and I couldn’t have chosen a better attorney. I trusted Peter through the entire DUI legal process, even when the end was nowhere in sight, and today we claimed victory! No criminal record for me thanks to Peter.

"Peter is very personable and devoted to his clients."

Peter defended me in a DUI case. In a town notorious for DUI arrests, Peter put to use his knowledge and understanding of the law to protect me against a wrongful arrest. He defended me against three charges brought by the state, all of which were thrown out of court. This success was due to his dogged determination in pursuing the facts of the case and examination of the evidence. He is actually well versed and well practiced in what he does within the legal system, but he is also very personable and devoted to his client.

"We easily won the case! I would recommend Peter to anyone."

Peter is a great lawyer. I had a DUI case that’s been in the system probably ongoing about four yrs now, and we ended up going to trail. Peter let the prosecutor have it! We easily won the case! I would recommend Peter to anyone. He is extremely knowledgeable when dealing with the Justice System. My thanks go to you, Peter!

"From my experience, I’d say prosecutors DON’T like seeing Mr. Zeliff walk in the courtroom."

I contacted Mr. Zeliff from out of state for a DUI case of mine in Georgia. He immediately took charge of my case and worked adamantly to get my charges reduced. The court system (Assistant Prosecutor) in the county which this occurred was very rigid in their processes, for which Mr. Zeliff worked through all the roadblocks to bring my case to a close. His drive and professionalism were able to get my charges reduced and closed out my nightmare in Georgia. From my experience, I’d say prosecutors DON’T like seeing Mr. Zeliff walk in the courtroom.

"Anyone who is in need of a lawyer, I promise you will be as amazed as me if you choose Evan Watson."

I just wanted to tell everyone how amazing Evan was defending me in my DUI case. The man knows the laws about this kind of case, that's for sure. I had this case on my mind for nine long months, and that took a toll on me. Well, Evan was there every time I had a question or concern and made me sleep better from his knowledge and confidence alone. Well, I was arrested by a GA. State Patrolman for my DUI and we all know they seem to get more credit anyway just for the there title. But that didn't scare Evan at all. In my trial he pulled out the field sobriety law book on the officer and showed him where he messed up on all the field sobriety tests, he performed on me and made him admit to messing up on all of them. I was just amazed by how good Evan knew the laws I mean he could have been a policeman. Evan went above and beyond my expectations and I am still in shock at how professional and educated he handles himself in the courtroom. Heck, even the bailiff told me my lawyer did an excellent job at defending me. I mean really I have never had anyone in my life support me or stick up for me the way Evan did that dreadful day, he actually brought a tear to my eye several times the way he was standing up for me ,and I will be forever grateful for this man for the rest of my life. I am so glad I chose him, and he will be my lawyer from now on. This not guilty verdict saved my drivers license, my job, my life !!!! A million thanks to you, Evan, you're the man! Anyone who is in need of a lawyer, I promise you will be as amazed as me if you choose Evan Watson.

"Mr. Watson’s dedication to his clients, experience, and personality truly set him apart from every other lawyer."

Mr. Watson has represented me on two occasions, and I would not consider any attorney other than Mr. Watson to represent me for any future incidences. Evan went well beyond the call of duty to assure that everything was handled in the most efficient manner and made an effort to establish a relationship with his clients outside of court to make me feel at ease and reassured that everything was going to be handled smoothly. He was always easy to contact and got back to me with any questions I had expediently. On both occasions that Mr. Watson represented me, we were successful in getting the outcomes that I wanted. Mr. Watson’s dedication to his clients, experience, and personality truly set him apart from every other lawyer I have ever previously hired, and these traits make him the exceptionally unique attorney that he is. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of representation.

"Evan is an incredibly strong negotiator, an outstanding advocate and a tough opponent."

Six months ago I was faced with two DUI charges less than a week apart, an open container charge and a breathalyzer test showing a blood alcohol level three times the legal limit. I was scared, overwhelmed and convinced that my situation was hopeless. It is thanks to the tremendous skill, knowledge and sheer talent of Evan that I escaped what were almost inevitable consequences. Today both DUI charges have been dropped, I have kept my driver’s license, and have not had to do any jail time. … His comprehensive knowledge of the law and the system and his uncanny understanding of human nature make him an incredibly strong negotiator, an outstanding advocate and a tough opponent.

"Evan Watson is someone that will fight for you with your best interest at heart."

Evan Watson is excellent!! This is someone that works hard for you, and I just don’t think that’s easy to find in an attorney. I never did tell Evan but I have been contemplating law school for about three years now and to see him represent me in the courtroom the way he did I am actually inspired to apply to school now! I trusted his judgment without question from the first moment I met him. I could tell he took his job seriously and had a passion for his cases. He gathered each and every fact he possibly could to represent me. His confidence, preparedness, and knowledge shows in the courtroom. Evan was so factual that it left no room for the opposing counsel to argue and he made such an impression on the remaining audience in court that someone asked for his business card after we left. I already knew that I hired the right person to represent me, but that was just icing on the cake to see someone stop us in the hall on the way out to request his business. Evan Watson is someone that will fight for you with your best interest at heart. Thank you, Evan!

"If anyone has any problem big or small, I would strongly urge you to put your trust in Mr. Watson."

I came to Evan in late 2010 after being charged with my first ever DUI. Although I had a breath result over .20, Evan reassured me that he would take things step at a time and give it everything he had before entering a plea to DUI. Evan got the evidence and combed over it before our first court date. After Evan had presented our case, the court agreed that if I completed a treatment program, the charges would be dropped. Evan guided me to find a treatment facility and checked in with me on my progress. I completed everything, and as promised at the next court date the charges were dropped. When I got the DUI, I was just back from deployment overseas. I know DUI is a career ender in my line of work and had to have someone willing to fight for me. If anyone has any problem big or small, I would strongly urge you to put your trust in Mr. Watson. He keeps his word and will fight to the end.

"I hired him on the spot. Best decision I ever made!"

I had an incident in Alpharetta with the police after leaving a restaurant. I called Mr. Watson the next day, and he immediately outlined his thoughts on my case, and I hired him on the spot. Best decision I ever made. Not only did he answer my every question, but he was also very professional and never more than a call away. His office staff( Renne) is top notch, and I am extremely happy with my outcome. I went from a misdemeanor DUI to reckless driving, and I owe it all to Mr. Evan Watson. Hopefully, I will not ever need his services again, but I will recommend his expertise to everyone I know.

"I was overly impressed with Evan's performance in the courtroom."

I got hit with a DUI less safe in GA and FML. I must have called 6 or more lawyers, and every one of them told me the same story, bite the bullet and hope and pray for a plea bargain for reckless driving. I told them that's not what I wanted; I didn't want anything I was innocent. Then I called Evan Watson. He was the only one to say "yeah that's not right I think you have a good case," and to just hear those words in a time like that was a total relief. In court, Evan Watson is the BOSS!! We dealt us a stubborn prosecutor an even more stubborn police officer who was trying to throw the whole book at me. Evan tore through their case without a problem; he never let up and it seemed like he attacked from every angle. I walked out of that courtroom with NO DUI and was only charged with FML and a fine. I was overly impressed with Evan's performance in the courtroom, and it almost seemed like movie quality lawyer work in reality. I recommend Evan Watson to anyone and everyone as an attorney. Evan will forever be the first lawyer I call for legal services next time I need them.

"Affordable. Responsive. Affable. Intellectual. Pragmatic. Results oriented."

As a Tennessee driver transiting to Georgia, I received a super speeder ticket (35+ mph over speed limit). Time is money, and Mr. Watson proved to be the obvious choice from a business decision standpoint. Affordable. Responsive. Affable. Intellectual. Pragmatic. Results oriented. Mr. Watson epitomized what a defense should look like. Clearly, his ability to navigate the judicial system was evident, and he truly made justice blind. His defense of my super speeder ticket resulted in a non-reportable violation. One could ask for nothing more. To not employ his service would be a disservice to equal justice.

"Mr. Watson's dedication to my case and ease of his personality helped me through the most stressful time of my life."

My experience with Mr. Waston has been excellent. I had no idea what to do except I needed a lawyer. I called Mr. Watson's office, 1 hour later he returned my call. I told him of my arrest and the criminal charges that were against me. Mr. Watson asked me to meet with him at his office the same day. Mr. Watson was very straight forward and assured me need no worry. We canceled my appointments with other lawyers and hired him on the spot. He was right, within three months Mr. Watson had all three charges DISMISSED, and I had a chance to fight back to the wrongful prosecution. Mr. Watson's command of the courtroom, his knowledge of the law, attention to the details, dedication to my case and ease of his personality helped me through the most stressful time of my life. He is the BEST in criminal defense. Thank you, Mr. Watson.

"Evan made it as easy and less stressful as possible for me. I would highly recommend him for a DUI case."

I am currently in my first semester of nursing school and right before I entered I got arrested for a DUI in Marietta, GA. I came across Evan Watson through this website and saw the great reviews and decided to take my chances and try him out with my case. I must say that was well worth the money (that I was forced to spend because of my poor decisions) on Evan. Being a college student and working for everything I have, he is very reasonable on "working with you" for fees, payments, etc. which was very helpful with my situation. Although I had a lot of criteria to do myself dealing with this case, Evan made the process a lot easier for me. He was also able to convince the prosecutor to reduce my charges down to reckless driving, and I was able to plea nolo contendere to prevent any points from showing up on my driving record for this case. My situation lasted only about four months, and even though getting a DUI can be one of the most stressful situations to ever get yourself into, Evan made it as easy and less stressful as possible for me. I would highly recommend him for a DUI case. He is well known throughout the court and is a very well respected man. Thank you, Evan!

"Evan did wonderful job fighting for me!"

I was arrested for 11 different charges 2 of which were felonies if it weren't for Evan I would probably still be in jail right now. With Evan fighting for me, I got all of my charges dropped except for 2, and those 2 were both misdemeanors. Evan did wonderful job fighting for me and not only that he listened to what I had to say and believed me when I told him what happened that night I got arrested instead of just looking at my charges and the police records and giving up on me. Thanks so much Evan I will be sure to tell my friends and anyoneI know to call you if they ever need a lawyer!!

"Evan Watson is amazing. With his help, he saved my license and job."

Evan Watson is amazing. I had the help of Evan, and he saved my license and job. I received a DUI while visiting Atlanta from C.A. The trip turned into a nightmare that could have destroyed my career. Evan made it all disappear not a single charge went through. He is honest, smart, and reliable. I was able to get in contact with him at all times needed, and if he could not answer the cell phone, he would call me right back. I would recommend Evan to my family and close friends. Thanks Evan

"I found Peter Zeliff to be very upfront, reasonable and hands-on"

I hired Mr. Peter Zeliff to provide counsel about a DUI, Reckless driving, Refusal and Expired Tag case. With the potential threat to my career and employment opportunities, it was of paramount importance that I receive a favorable outcome in my situation. Mr. Zeliff listened to my concerns and opinions while providing me with professional counsel. He kept me informed of the process, procedures, and filings in every step of the process. I was also informed of any possible outcomes upfront. He made every court appearance, even those I was not required to attend. With his due diligence, in the end, I received a favorable decision. He is very dedicated to the counsel of his clients, proving himself to be a very experienced professional. If you are seeking a legal advisor who genuinely cares about those he provides guidance for, this is the Attorney for you. I found him to be very upfront, reasonable and hands-on. I would recommend very highly.

"The word CARES is all that one needs to know when you meet Peter for the first time."
