Practice Areas
We are proud to offer exceptional representation during the pretrial and investigation phases of a criminal case, at trial and on appeal. We defend clients in State and Federal courts around the country.
WE STAND WITH YOU AT EVERY PHASE OF THE CASE:
INVESTIGATION:
When a person or a company is under investigation - when the scrutinizing eye of law enforcement is focused on an individual or an entity - it is essential to have an advocate who is skilled at navigating the developing issues which can impact the entirety of the case. One misstep can have disastrous consequences. We are adept at communicating with law enforcement officers and prosecutors and mounting a defense investigation to ensure that exculpatory evidence and beneficial information is obtained for use in future proceedings, such as meetings to ward off arrest/indictment, bond, motions and trial. The Steel Law Firm prides itself on preparation and experience.
TRIAL:
When formal charges are filed, through a criminal complaint, indictment or accusation, it is necessary to have seasoned trial attorneys like Brian Steel and Colette Resnik Steel on your side. With almost 60 years of combined trial and courtroom experience, we competently, ethically and zealously fight to defend our clients, leaving no stone unturned. Beginning with bond hearings and pretrial motions and continuing through to the trial of a case, if necessary, we stand with our clients and provide powerful representation.
APPEAL:
When the outcome of a trial results in a criminal conviction, you need the most thorough and knowledgeable lawyer to pursue the direct appeal. Brian Steel is the appellate lawyer who gets the best results in the Georgia appeals courts due to extensive experience in analyzing the record of the case, crafting novel legal arguments, submitting persuasive written briefs and making clear and strong oral arguments. Whether litigating an appeal in the trial court at the motion for new trial or before an appellate court, Brian commands the strongest positions available.
