Arrested for DUI? GA Lawyer for Smyrna Municipal Court

Published on: April 23, 2023 | Kohn & Yager LLC

If you are stopped in Georgia and then arrested for driving under the influence (or any other serious traffic offense) this cuffing and jailing can be a very jarring and disruptive experience. Over 95% of arrests are made by an officer with the Smyrna Police Department Georgia, and the balance handled by the Cobb County Police Department, or Georgia State Patrol (when accidents have occurred).

The City of Smyrna Municipal Court House is located in Smyrna, Georgia 30080, at 2800 King Street. This is the same building that houses City Hall, so don’t think that you are in the wrong place.
