Atlanta Criminal Defense Lawyer Howard J. Weintraub Named Attorney of the Month by Attorney at Law Magazine

ATLANTA, Sept. 22, 2014 Howard J. Weintraub has dedicated his professional career and personal life toward advocating on behalf of people facing criminal charges. An attorney of almost 40 years, Weintraub has seen a great deal, represented hundreds of clients, and has been successful in saving the lives and futures of many people. Perhaps even more impressive than his record of success and the many positive reviews he receives is that his commitment to clients has never wavered throughout the years. It's this commitment – in addition to his compassionate, driven, and meticulous work ethic – that helped Weintraub earn recognition as Attorney of the Month by the Metro Atlanta edition of Attorney at Law Magazine.

Attorney at Law Magazine is a respected, nationwide legal publication that focuses on providing industry professionals targeted information regarding their local legal community. By awarding Weintraub the Attorney of the Month distinction, the magazine's Metro Atlanta publication features Attorney Weintraub on the cover and a full-length article on his humble beginnings and life as a lawyer.

The featured article chronicles Weintraub's legal career, detailing his motivations for becoming a lawyer and his belief that clients place their trust and lives in his hands, an idea he learned from his father. After earning his law degree from Emory University School of Law, Weintraub worked as a prosecutor, a position he chose to gain experience quickly and gain insight from the prosecutorial perspective before having the responsibility of defending people.

Weintraub eventually assumed that responsibility after spending several years working in the Appellate Section in the Criminal Division of the United States Department of Justice and eight years as an Assistant United States Attorney in Atlanta. His time spent as a federal prosecutor for the Northern District of Georgia left Weintraub with invaluable experience to be used when he opened his own criminal defense firm in 1985.

Weintraub's career as a criminal defense lawyer in Atlanta, rattled off quickly in the article, includes everything from standard DUI and drug crime cases to representing clients in federal cases in 20 states and cities across Georgia. He's defended clients against a variety of criminal allegations, including complex frauds, public corruption, RICO charges, murder, and more. Because every client he represents is unique, Weintraub has continually stressed the importance of diligently and meticulously preparing each case.

All of his legal achievements and experience have culminated in Weintraub being a widely respected and proven defense attorney, as well as a bold advocate whose passion for the law and hard work is only exceeded by the compassion and support he delivers clients. The article points to Weintraub's more than 100 positive client reviews on Avvo as proof that he's not only a good lawyer, but a good person as well. You can read the full article here.
