Georgia Criminal Defense LawyerMeg Strickler
Ms. Strickler represents clients charged for ANY criminal offense at the federal or state level. The majority of her clients are charged with serious financial, sex or internet crimes. She also oversees and coordinates the pre-accusation/pre-indictment investigation work on the law firm's criminal cases. This work involves painstaking attention to detail and constitutes a critical, pro-active approach to criminal defense work. She often succeeds in getting her cases dismissed prior to charges being formally brought against her clients. Ms. Strickler has successfully resolved over a thousand criminal cases and is fast becoming one of the most successful trial lawyers in the country. In fact, she was recently named a Super Lawyer - Rising Star by Atlanta Magazine. "The best thing we can do for a client is to get their case dismissed before an indictment or accusation is ever drafted by the prosecutor," explains Ms. Strickler. "If we can succeed in resolving the matter early, we can save the client the pain and stress of having to appear in court under the cloud of indictment or accusation. The teamwork approach at Conaway, Strickler, & Margolis, P.C., helps to make this possible." Ms. Strickler is currently an adjunct professor for Emory Law School's Kessler-Eidsen Institute for Trial Advocacy, where she instructs law school students in the art of case preparation and trial advocacy.
