I noticed that Kilgore checks out his manicured nails during cross. Kilgore dresses quite well, imo, although I didn't care for the white tie yesterday b/c it is fall and seemed out of season. One day he wore those fabulous lapis lazuli cuff links that I adored. JRH has definitely been issued the privilege of a well-paid, well-qualified Defense Team.
Whomever contacted and hired Kilgore/Rodriquez to begin with, smart choice!
When your liberty is at stake, you need a criminal defense lawyer with real courtroom experience.
Experienced defense attorneys like Maddox Kilgore and Carlos Rodriguez understand that nobody plans on being accused of a crime...arrested...facing prison...in need of an advocate. But when it happens, real courtroom experience matters.
Maddox and Carlos grew up in the Marietta/Smyrna community and are honored to call Marietta home for their law firm. They have tried a wide variety of criminal defense cases including: murder, child molestation, aggravated assault, aggravated battery, vehicular homicide, hijacking, kidnapping, armed robbery, RICO (racketeering), fraud, forgery, domestic violence, drug trafficking, burglary, and theft.
When battling against a savvy prosecutor at trial, or arguing complicated motions or objections before the trial judge, a lawyers best weapon is real courtroom EXPERIENCE. As a former felony prosecutor, Maddox Kilgore understands exactly how the State is preparing to prosecute your case. In both prosecuting and defending dozens of jury trials, Maddox and Carlos have questioned or cross-examined a wide variety of experts and professional witnesses, such as police officers, homicide detectives, medical examiners, chemists, toxicologists, firearms examiners, blood spatter experts, DNA scientists, arson investigators, cell phone experts, medical doctors, bankers, and child abuse experts.
Because the firm is devoted exclusively to defending people charged with crimes, Maddox and Carlos proudly offer their clients a wealth of real courtroom experience and a proven track record of success.
Sexual Offenses, Child Molestation & *advertiser censored* Defenses
No arrest is more frightening or embarrassing than one for child molestation, *advertiser censored*, or any sexual offense. Just like Law & Order SVU...most metro area counties such as Cobb, Cherokee and Fulton have special investigators and prosecutors dedicated to prosecuting only sex crimes against women and children. Because these investigators and prosecutors are often the most experienced and best trained, you need seasoned legal representation when facing a child-related or sexually-based criminal charge.
Criminal Appeals
Once your loved one has been convicted and sentenced to prison, it is easy to become discouraged and feel that all hope is lost. Its not. At Kilgore & Rodriguez, we have a track record of winning on appeal. As a former law assistant on the Georgia Supreme Court, Maddox understands what the appellate courts are looking for and how to best present a compelling appeal. As a former Assistant Attorney General, Maddox honed his skills in legal research, writing legal briefs, and arguing appeals before the Georgia Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit. That experience has resulted in winning appeals.
Not only are the criminal penalties unimaginably harsh, but the public scorn and humiliation can be just as devastating. An arrest for child molestation or child *advertiser censored* will likely make the news. Thats why the philosophy in challenging any child or sexually related charge is tenacity with discretion. With Kilgore & Rodriguez, you are guaranteed the experience and skills needed to defend against these serious charges, but with an understanding that your privacy and reputation need defending too. http://www.kilgorerodriguez.com/
