About half of all police officers in Cobb County are stationed at some location in the city of Marietta GA, and spend their time answering 911 calls and cruising the streets of the county seat for the county, looking for those committing a crime or wanted for prior criminal activity. Criminal charges can be made on a traffic ticket (called a uniform traffic citation), or by way of an arrest warrant, accusation or indictment for felony sex crimes, murder, armed robbery, burglary and a host of other crimes.
When we represent clients, criminal defense lawyers are member of the Georgia Bar, and licensed to practice law in the State.
