Howard Weintraub has got be one of the best lawyers in Atlanta. He has continued to help me time and time again even when I came across legal issues that technically had nothing to do it with the original charges. It’s been numerous times that he spent hours on the phone with me going over my case at times that I know were probably inconvenient for him but he still put in that overtime. His team and staff are also great, supportive and resourceful. I would definitely recommend Howard to anybody needing a dedicated and hard working criminal defense attorney.

Howard Weintraub is the best lawyer I have yet had the pleasure of working with, is outstandingly professional, and could not have helped me in a more significant way. Howard was always available to help my family and I through the duration of our case. Thanks to the diligent work of Howard and his firm, we were able to have the case dismissed! Contacting Howard was the best decision my family could have made in our circumstances, and I can't thank him enough. I place my full confidence in Howard's abilities and recommend anyone else to do the same!

Howard handled my case well and I got out with minimal probation and classes. I also didn't have to pay out money to the courts and probation. All together a phenomenal attorney! Thanks again Howard for all you have done. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney.

You cannot defend someone unless you know someone. You cannot speak for someone unless you know their voice. The firm of, LAW OFFICES OF WEINTRAUB & ALPER, P.C. in my experience executes that philosophy. The firm’s dedication to me, the client, was beyond reproach…100% dedication…100% commitment. In preparing to defend me, the firm committed complete access to their investigative team, their forensic technology, their administrative staff and by working with experts that would assist in defending me. The LAW OFFICES OF WENTRAUB & ALPER, P.C. was very quick in establishing a thorough and cohesive approach for my case which was leveraging the many years of the firms experience and understanding the allegations, the Law, as well as the Atlanta court system. The dedication was unquestionably the best I’ve ever experienced. I had complete access to the firm at all times of the day and night and there were times when I called them at 1 o’clock in the morning. Howard stated to me many times, you take care of your family, let Ben and I and our team take care of your case. Ben Alper is an absolutely outstanding attorney. I am truly impressed with his knowledge of the law and his understanding of the court system. Ben was also incredibly instrumental in creating a strategy moving forward showing great patience and understanding working with the Atlanta judicial system. Howard, the senior partner, had even more experience within the judicial system and was absolutely a complete master in understanding how we should proceed. The firm never viewed the Atlanta judicial system as an adversary but rather treated them with a great deal of respect understanding that they had a job to do but so did the LAW OFFICES OF WEINTRAUB & ALPER, P.C. I think the respect that the firm has earned over the many years of working within the judicial system definitely assisted my case exponentially. In almost any case, there are going to be highs and lows, but the firm was steadfast in the direction and guidance. I had some sleepless nights, however, I never had a night where I felt I was alone. The firm was with me at all times. MY FAMILY AND I are most thankful for LAW OFFICES OF WEINTRAUB & ALPER, P.C. God blessed me with a firm that put me first, above the allegation. You cannot defend someone unless you know someone. You cannot speak for someone unless you know their voice.

One of the best life decisions our family made was a decision to go with the Law Offices of Weintraub & Alper, P.C. The commitment and dedication to our family was 100%. That commitment was evident through the many resources used in defending our case and the many years of case management. Their trial experience was so evident beyond reproach. Our family and friends ARE forever THANKFUL, in particular to Howard and Senior Attorney Ben. Howard and Ben were available to us at all times of the day. They took care of the law, allowing me and my family to worry about ourselves. They took care of the long procedures so we were able to sleep at night. We still had many worries, but they put many of them to rest. The firms understanding of the law and the court system was just outstanding. Thank You !!! Law Offices of Weintrayub & Alper, P.C.

I am more than elated to have had Mr. Weintraub represent me in my last downfall with the law. I had two pending cases in two separate counties that could have seriously turned out for the worst sending me to prison. Not only did he do his due diligence in finding out everything and more for the case, he also had a major impact on how I viewed life and the decisions that I've made. Instead of just being another client he took me in as if I were his own son. I've never had a lawyer ( or anyone for that matter) care enough to look deeper than the surface and seek the help that I needed personally as he has. In the end I received was able to walk away from both cases with a better outcome than even we intended. I'd recommend Mr. Howard if you're seeking the best results. 5 stars hands down!

One of the best lawyers in Atlanta. He knows exactly what his clients need to do to have a best possible outcome. He will tell you to do everything the judge needs before your court date, so he can show your works to the judge and prosecutor on the court date, so you can have a good outcome on your case and leave the room quickly. Just listen and follow his instructions.

Got into some trouble back in the early 2000’s that ended up being allot more trouble than I originally expected. A referral led me to Mr. Weintraub and after meeting him one time I knew he was the man to hire. Efficient, knowledgeable in his area of expertise as well as a man of character and integrity. I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking for a solid criminal defense attorney.

My husband hired the Best of the Best!
Trust me - Call Howard Weintraub first! Hiring Howard was the best decision our family could have ever made during an unexpected issue and I give him 5 stars without hesitation!! My husband of 25 years and military officer of over 26 years was in need of legal assistance for the first time in his life and was very worried for our family. Although, we are strong in faith, we felt additionally confident that things would be positively resolved with Howard in front of all inquiries and leading us through the storm. My husband is very modest, but I wanted to personally as a military spouse and loving wife, let all family members to encourage their loved one to seek Howard as their first call when in need of representation regardless of the size or scope. He listens, is always available, understanding and he and his staff provided around the clock assurances that he was a call away and we were shielded. I do not often provide my opinions, but felt strongly compelled to express my strong confidence and highest regard for The Law Office of Howard Weintraub. When you call Howard, you get Howard Weintraub!

Howard called me at 8AM after I was accused with a crime that would hurt my life and my career. I am always trying to learn as much as I can and I know I can be a little bit too much at times. I met with Ben the next morning and he seemed very experienced and my idea was to plead guilty to a lesser charge since I believed in my innocence. I had desire to go two years and prove my innocence but in criminal law sometimes if you fight too much you can get burned. Being a fanatic of Dateline I was upset this was happening to me but I was also happy to know I have a seasoned attorney like Howard. Experience is gold here. So Howard got me what I wanted a simple 'too fast for road conditions'. It will not even go on my record. Masterful negotiator.

I also got paid $30k after Howard referred me to a lawyer and my employer who was acting unethical and I am now happy with a lesser charge and employer paid me all he owed.

I highly recommend Howard Weintraub and Benjamin Alper. They had my sons sentence reduced from 30 years to serve 20 to 15 years to serve 10. My son had just graduated high school and was about to start college when at 18 he got involved with the wrong people and was put in a position where he had to defend his life. He did not deserve to go to prison. I believe if I knew Howard and Ben prior to him being sentenced he would have never went to prison. One of my sons former baseball coaches who knows what a good person he is said that I should contact Howard. I believe God put Howard and Ben in my path to correct the injustice that was done. They put in for a reduction of sentence for my son and won! My son is home now! He has a full time job and is in church with me every Sunday. My son is 28 and if not for Howard and Ben he would still be sitting in some of the worst prisons in Ga for another ten years. His Granny (86 years old) and I would still be visiting him in prison at least every other week like we did the whole ten years he was there. I would still be pushing her up the hill in her wheelchair with her holding on to her Oxygen tank. It was really hard for her to visit but nothing could stop her. Now he gets to go visit her! He is enjoying his life! The nightmare is over! This is the best Christmas ever for my family thanks to these two brilliant caring attorneys! I can never thank them enough!

I had a legal issue that needed attention the day before Thanksgiving. I called his toll free number at 5:00am and he immediately called me back. I also met with him a few hours later. His partner Ben was also a huge help. I would highly recommend him if you need a lawyer in Atlanta !

Awesome lawyer!! Howard Weintraub came highly recommended and proved to a beacon of hope to my family at a time when our options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed close to impossible. Not only was he able to stand in our defense from a very volatile and unjust criminal accusation that was overturned, his calm and empathetic demeanor offered emotional support to myself and those I care about most. I am a recently retired military officer who never required legal representation. A strength of Howard’s was his ability to work with people who need an aggressive, hard-charging lawyer that will not allow his clients to be mistreated or misled by the legal system. He had an uncanny way of explaining the situation, possibilities and developed a solid strategy that he presented in a straight-forward way and in real terms. He informed me and I always remained convinced that if the worst ever happened, Howard would be there to bail me out. He is a constant professional that was always accessible. Regardless of the time of day, whenever Howard was needed, he was always a call away. My children and I are eternally grateful for his service and I hereby recommend Mr. Weintraub without reservation.”

I recently witness Mr. Weintraub's exceptional skills as an attorney and negotiator. His knowledge of the legal system enabled a family member facing a multitude of charges (felonies with possible prison time if convicted) to be convicted rightly so for a minor traffic violation and a misdemeanor. He was always straightforward in his approach to the case and negotiated for the best outcome, and did not stop fighting until it was obtained. He spent numerous hours working on their case and making sure that they were always aware of the progress he had made. He offered comfort, emotional support, and guidance whenever it was needed. He made himself available at any hour of the day for questions or concerns and always responded quickly to any messages left for him. Other attorneys interviewed only offered negative and harsh criticisms, whereas Howard objectively offered peace of mind and valued advice. My family is beyond grateful for his hard work and could not thank him enough for all that he has done. We don't know what we would've done without Howard, luckily we won't have to find out.

Mr. Weintraub was retained as an attorney for a family member. Our family member faced 8 serious charges, including 2 felony charges against a police officer, a dui, possession, speeding 100 miles/hr. etc. Mr. Weintraub's amazing negotiating skills left our family member being formally charged with 1. Speeding 15 miles over. 2. Misdemeanor possession ( first offenders). 3. Probation until fines paid ( 5 minutes). This allowed our family member a record free, prison free, low fine outcome. He was able to negotiate this matter primarily from his office, allowing us, as out of staters, to travel back to Georgia only once for a final hearing that lasted 4 minutes. We interviewed numerous attorneys prior to finding Mr. Weintraub. All other attorneys believed jail or prison, with DUI programs, and large fines to be the best outcome. Mr. Weintraub offered a kind hearted honest observation with the promise to fight his hardest to minimize the impact. We could not be more greatful for the amazing outcome he gave us. He negotiated diligently to the very end, never settling until all options were exhausted. Mr. Weintraub, we can't thank you enough.

I hired Atlanta criminal defense attorney Howard Weintraub to help me with a speeding ticket. Although this is not a serious criminal allegation, because of the nature of my employment, it was extremely important to me to have my case resolved in a certain manner. Howard Weintraub treated me as if I were his only client: giving me hands-on attention and keeping me apprised of everything that he was doing and what was happening with the court. Not only did Howard resolve this case in the way I was hoping to have it done, but he resolved it without me having to take off of work and travel to the court some 2 ½ - 3 hours away from my residence in Atlanta. Equally significant, the legal representation fee that Howard charged me for his services was extremely reasonable. Because of this experience with attorney Howard Weintraub and the result that he obtained for me, I can without any hesitation recommend Howard Weintraub to anyone in need of an aggressive, hard fighting, and honest criminal defense lawyer. He truly made me feel like a personal friend or family!

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Weintraub due to unfortunate circumstances, but retaining him to represent me was the best decision. He listened intently, ensured he had a thorough understanding of my case, and proceeded to fearlessly represent me until my case was dismissed. He even contacted the other party prior to my dismissal in an attempt to mediate, but the other party refused. Mr. Weintraub genuinely cares for his clients, which is evident on his frequent communication to provide updates or simply check-in to make sure I knew everything was going to be okay. I could not be more thankful for the expertise this firm exhibited while handling my case. I have no reservations on recommending Howard Weintraub to anyone in the future.

I have had many interactions with different attorneys during my life, some were my classmates, some are family members and some are attorneys I have worked with in the past for immigration purposes or other legal affairs. I can assert that when I compare Mr. Weintraub with them, he shines like a star, and in fact he belongs to a higher league. I had a problem with a traffic citation (expired tag). Before the court, he gave me very comprehensive advices on how to deal with this issue, devised a very thoughtful plan for the court day, and helped me to handle my stress the month before the court. He showed up on time on the day of the court, and helped me with all the required steps during the day, all with his always supportive and patient manner. He handled the case perfectly, and I was dismissed of any charges without even paying a fine. Based on this experience, I should say that he is smart, dedicated, knowledgable in criminal law, has a very good team and is quite supportive. I haven't seen his level of quality and dedication in many lawyers in the past, which makes him one of a kind. One thing I would like to add about Mr. Weintraub is the fact that he is very responsive to his emails, and it has always been easy for me to contact him with either email or calling his office. He is very busy, yet so understanding of his clients that he tries to maintain the attorney/client communication at a high standard. It has been a pleasure knowing Howard in person and working with him, and I strongly recommend him for all sorts of crime defense cases.

THANK YOU HOWARD WEINTRAUB

When I was 25 years old I was pulled over in Atlanta for having a tail light out on my car. The police searched my car and immediately called a K-9 unit to my stop. They found a small amount of marijuana and muscle relaxers in an unmarked prescription bottle. My family hired criminal defense lawyer Howard Weintraub to represent me. Mr. Weintraub researched the whole situation and found the solution that I needed to help me so that I would not have a felony on my record. I was young, had never been in trouble before, and I was very scared about the whole situation. Mr. Weintraub walked me through the entire process giving me confidence every time we spoke that as bad as it was, there was hope. I will never forget the day that I left the courtroom after pleading guilty to the misdemeanor possession of less than an ounce of marijuana and I got on the elevator where people who had been in the courtroom on other cases began to tell me how lucky I was to have had such a good attorney and that they had wished they had hired the attorney who had represented me. I thank you Mr. Weintraub for how you helped me.

A relative of mine was referred to Atlanta criminal defense attorney Howard Weintraub when he was arrested following a stop and search of his vehicle for his possession of marijuana and for his unlawful possession of narcotic prescription pills. As to the prescription pills offense, my relative’s arrest concerned narcotic pills in a prescription bottle which did not have a label showing that the pills belonged to him. My relative was looking to be convicted of a felony concerning his possession of having medication in an unmarked bottle. Because the marijuana was less than an ounce my relative was facing a misdemeanor charge for possessing the marijuana. Through his diligent efforts, Howard Weintraub saved my relative from being convicted of a felony. Mr. Weintraub’s investigation of the facts enabled him to convince the prosecutor that the narcotic prescription pills actually belonged to a friend of my relative and that the friend had mistakenly left the bottle in my relative’s car without my relative actually knowing that the bottle and pills were in his vehicle. Needless to say, Howard Weintraub did a great job of defending my relative so as to keep him from being convicted of a felony. Because of how Howard Weintraub represented my relative I would highly recommend Howard Weintraub to anyone needing a great criminal defense lawyer.

This is my review of an incredible Attorney, Howard Weintraub. I am devastated by several issues I am dealing with in my life. I called several attorneys who came with great recommendations. Not one of them returned my call except Attorney Howard Weintraub.
He actually called me back At 5 in the morning. I couldn’t believe that he returned my call at 5am. He was actually on his way to a hospital to undergo outpatient surgery. He took the time to call me back before he went into his surgery. UNBELIEVABLE. A caring attorney, what a concept! Mr. Weintraub Cares about me personally and I’m sure he’s awesome with all his clients. He not only spoke to me prior to him going under the knife but has called me daily to make sure I was alright. I can not thank him enough for his positive attitude. He sure eased my mind about what I am going through. I stopped crying immediately as he made me feel like he has everything under control.
God Bless you Mr. Weintraub.

He had me take two investigatory polygraphs (which I passed) pretending they were evidentiary, and then wasted $65,000 in a futile attempt to get them admitted into evidence, as found by District Judge Clarence Cooper in USA v. A STEPHAN BOTES case number 1:04-CV-0568-CC in the Northern District of Georgia. He failed for 16 months leading up to trial to prepare for trial and withdrew as trial counsel just before trial commenced. I sued him for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, professional negligence and fraud in the case, A. STEPHAN BOTES v. HOWARD J. WEINTRAUB, case no. 1:08-CV-1341-WS0. My suit against Weintraub was dismissed without him having denied the allegations, but on the basis that I did not have one of Weintraub's contemporaries, fellow members of the Bar of Georgia, turn on him. Sharks don't eat their young.

My sister was in need of a good lawyer for a case. She was facing years of jail time without a guidance from a knowledgeable lawyer. I suggested she contact Howard Weintraub for a consultation. He took her case and got her off on probation without any jail time. He was extremely smart and knowledgeable about the laws regarding her case. I highly recommend Howard Weintraub for anyone who finds him/herself on the wrong side of the law.

I would highly recommend Atlanta criminal defense attorney Howard J Weintraub if you ever are charged with a criminal offense. Last year, I found myself facing criminal charges in Bibb County and Wilkinson County Georgia and hired Howard Weintraub to help me with both of these cases even though his office is in midtown, Atlanta. The Bibb county case has been resolved as I am satisfied with the results obtained by attorney Howard J Weintraub in that case. Because of Howard Weintraub's hard work and incredible skills I concluded that case with not one day of jail and not one day of probation and the condition that I pay in full a reduced fine. On the day of my court proceedings, I paid the fine in full and the case was completely over with me not having to do anything more or worry any further about the outcome of that case. My case in Wilkinson County superior Court still is going on but I hope (know) that Howard J Weintraub will again use his skills to reach a great resolution in that case just as he did in the Bibb co. case. Throughout my working relationship with Howard J Weintraub, he has always been right there to answer all of my questions and concerns. He was available during his office work hours as well as the evenings and weekends/holidays. He even texted me this past Mother’s Day to wish me Happy Mother’s Day and to tell me he thought I was a terrific mother to my children. Howard Weintraub has definitely worked tirelessly on my two cases since I hired him to defend me. Howard Weintraub is by far the best lawyer anyone could hire to represent them. Do yourself a favor and hire Howard J Weintraub to represent you should you ever need a great criminal defense lawyer. My family and I thank you very much for all your help and kindness (& patience, as I have not been the easiest client to deal with).

I had been involved in a difficult legal matter in Atlanta and I needed to be represented by a very smart criminal defense lawyer. Fortunately, I retained Atlanta criminal defense lawyer Howard Weintraub to represent me. He was fantastic! Words cannot describe how graciously he treated me. He is extremely detailed, very intense, very focused, and very smart. Because he stayed in constant contact with me he brought me peace of mind throughout my case. Although I was worried about the outcome of my case I knew that I was in good hands with Howard Weintraub as my attorney. He worked out a great deal for me and my matter now is over. Even though Howard Weintraub no longer needs to call me as my attorney because the case is finished he continues to call and check up on me to see how I am doing. I sincerely feel that Howard Weintraub is a fantastic lawyer and I highly recommend him to anyone needing a great criminal defense lawyer.

I highly recommend Howard Weintraub to anyone in need of a legal defense. From my initial consultation with Howard, to the final disposition of the case, Howard has been by my side every step of the way, always calling to keep me updated with the case, and routinely checking on me to make sure that I was alright. Howard would also take the time from work to call me and ensure that everything will be alright. Howard is a passionate, caring, and diligent lawyer who will do whatever it takes to get the best possible resolution for your legal case.

With Howard’s legal help, I was able to get the best outcome of my case; I am forever grateful for the help and support that Howard has given to me, and helped me overcome what could have been a terrible and life-altering situation. If you need a hard-working, smart, compassionate lawyer that truly looks out for your well-being, then Howard Weintraub is the best lawyer for you.

In December, 2018, my son, who never had done anything wrong in his life found himself facing a very serious criminal case and his continued enrollment at a Georgia college was in jeopardy. I knew that I had to retain an aggressive, smart, and compassionate criminal defense attorney in Atlanta to represent my son in Fulton County Superior Court. Miraculously my search brought me to Atlanta criminal defense lawyer Howard Weintraub. From the very first conversation that my son and I had with Howard Weintraub in December of last year through the completion of the case, Mr. Weintraub was extremely thorough, completely prepared, and unquestionably 100% caring for the current and future welfare of my son. Through Howard Weintraub’s efforts and his keen representation of my son, all of the criminal charges against my son were dismissed by the judge and my son is now able to continue on with his future goals without any arrest record or any felony conviction. At the same time of this criminal matter, my son also found himself involved in two administrative proceedings with the college that impacted on him remaining as a student at the school. Although I paid and retained Howard Weintraub to represent my son in the criminal case, Mr. Weintraub also worked with my son and me on these two other college proceedings without asking for any additional money. Howard Weintraub told us that he was dedicated to doing everything he could for my son and Mr. Weintraub came through 100% on his statement to us. Howard Weintraub’s advice to my son and me on these two other college matters, like his advice on the criminal case, was totally correct and the resolution he helped us to get with the college was fantastic. I cannot thank Howard Weintraub enough for saving my son from what certainly could have been terrible and life altering results. I highly recommend Howard Weintraub to anyone needing a great, compassionate, and very smart criminal defense lawyer.

Outstanding Service & Representation
Howard Weintraub and his associates provided excellent service, demonstrating professionalism and personal attention to all details of my fathers case. Mr. Weintraub and his staff were helpful and responsive to all our questions and concerns, easily reachable, always following up and answering my phone calls no matter the time. He genuinely made me feel like family and would even call on the holidays, he is a true father figure and inspiration to me. Each member of his staff played a valuable role in helping to resolve the matter. Howard Weintraub is a very efficient, no non-sense criminal lawyer, he is confident and keenly aware, cool under fire, knowledgeable and aggressive advocate. His knowledge and command of the material were impeccable. Each task was accomplished carefully. He was hope to my family at a time when our options were limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory result seemed impossible. Not only was Mr. Weintraub able to provide a great defense but also offered advice and compassion through the whole case to myself and those I are about most. Even after sentencing, when additional attention was needed, everything was taken care of completely. I was really appreciative of his empathetic demeanor and thoughtful efforts of reassurance. My family and I are eternally grateful for his service and I hereby recommend Howard Weintraub without reservation.

August 2018 I was arrested in Georgia following an accident where I rear-ended another vehicle. I was under the influence of alcohol at the time of this last arrest and came to the realization that I had a very serious alcohol dependency issue: to be completely honest with myself and my family, I then finally acknowledged that I was an alcoholic, and that I needed to drastically change my life.
After this last DUI arrest, I started searching for a criminal defense lawyer to represent me in my DUI case. I knew with my record of multiple DUI convictions I was facing probably twelve months or more in jail if I were convicted on this DUI charge, especially when I had rear-ended another car while I was driving drunk. In my search for a criminal defense attorney, God must have taken over, as I chose criminal defense lawyer Howard Weintraub to represent me. What impressed me most about Howard was how personable he was from the very start and the fact that he himself took the time to call me on a Sunday morning to speak about my case. When I initially called Howard Weintraub that Sunday morning in August 2018, he was out enjoying that summer day with his wife, but he took the time to speak at length with me on the phone and he told me exactly what his strategy would be in defending me. He also made it abundantly clear to me in our first telephone conversation that he wanted me to immediately and proactively take control over my battle with alcoholism. I’d finally hit rock bottom so I was more than ready to take his advice and take control of my alcoholism.: He put me on an electronic device connected to a monitor that I wore strapped to my right ankle 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to prove down the road to the judge and prosecutor that from the day I had this device installed and throughout the days until the case was resolved, that I had remained completely sober; he insisted that I immediately undertake an alcohol and drug evaluation; that I immediately receive counselling by licensed professional counselors; that I immediately attend multiple weekly AA meetings; and that I attend DUI Risk Reduction School. I did everything that Howard asked me to do.
Of all the lawyers I’ve hired to represent me in my previous DUI cases, Howard was the only one who actually cared about me fighting and conquering my alcoholism. I never stressed or felt worried during my case because he kept me thoroughly informed and focused my alcoholism instead of the case. Without him as my attorney I am certain that I would not have begun and continued on with my fight against alcoholism. Thank you, Howard Weintraub, as you literally helped me save my life!
Howard Weintraub kept me out of jail, preserved my driving privileges and put me on the road to conquering my alcoholism. God bless you Howard Weintraub! I now consider Howard Weintraub to be a friend and, even though his representation of me is over, he continually calls me to see how I am doing on my road to remaining sober and alcohol free. I thank you Howard Weintraub for everything you have done for me and my family.
I highly recommend Howard Weintraub to anyone in need of a dedicated, hard-working, and compassionate criminal defense attorney to represent you in any type of criminal matter you may have. He and his partner Benjamin Black Alper, and the rest of his team, will provide you the best criminal defense and customer service that you can trust.

My friend Peter was charged with a criminal matter back in 2010. Seemingly insignificant, but due to Peter’s complicated immigration pending status, he needed to have this alleged offense dismissed. Peter was recommended by his immigration attorney to Atlanta criminal defense lawyer Howard Weintraub to represent him. My friend Peter thereafter arranged for an appointment with Howard Weintraub, his partner Benjamin Alper, and his amazing staff. Howard Weintraub handled Peter’s case with confidence like a boss. No Chicki no Micki. Peter’s case was dismissed just 8 weeks after Howard began to work on the case. Howard Weintraub is a professional, focused, result oriented, experienced criminal defense layer. Although Peter’s case was not a complex matter, it was obvious to Peter and me that Howard Weintraub handled Peter’s case with the same level of importance and intensity as Howard Weintraub shows in the complicated and severe cases that he deals with on a daily basis. Peter developed a kind of friendship with Howard during their dealings. Peter always said to me that Howard Weintraub was funny, personable, compassionate, and sincere.

Recently, eight years later, Peter called Howard Weintraub just to say hi. Peter didn't need his help this time but just called to wish him Merry Christmas. Surprisingly, Howard picked up Peter’s phone call and remembered Peter and most of the details of Peter’s case from 2010. Peter called me a few weeks ago to tell me about this latest phone call with his former lawyer Howard Weintraub and I told Peter that I wanted to write this review about Howard Weintraub’s handling of his case. Here is my advice: if you are in trouble and need results call Howard Weintraub and Benjamin Alper’s law office because they are the best criminal defense attorneys.

Howard J. Weintraub was the only attorney that had called back and consoled me about my case. He was attentive to all of the details and had always updated me of every step of the process. With his experience, I was comfortable in knowing that my case was in good hands. Even with all the rumination and worrying about what was going to happen; Howard was astute and confident about the outcome. shortly after, my charge was dismissed and I am very thankful and appreciative for his hard work.

The Law Offices of Howard J. Weintraub team worked so hard on my case and they gave me a second chance at life. To anyone who is on the fence about hiring this law firm should really think again, because between Mrs. patty, Mr. Howard, and Mr. Ben they worked day and night on my case. They treated me like family and I would highly recommend them to any of my friends and my family.
Thanks Howard

Howard kept me from being thrown into a life of misery. I met him when I was 18 years old and had made some poor choices. He was always honest and compassionate, and I can say that his work is what gave me the chance to turn it around. 6 years later and I get to work with people going through the wringer with drugs and drinking, and I run an animal rescue. So Howard’s work has helped me and a bunch of other people and animals. Thanks Howard and everyone else.

I have known Mr. Weintraub for about 2 years now. I can honestly say without his help I don't know where I would be. I was charged with some serious felonies (3 to be exact) that could have given me a substantial time in prison. He reassured me every step of the way and helped me understand everything that was happening. I never saw a jail cell and was given a second chance which I highly believe was all because of Howard. I am now going to one of the top 40 universities in the country because he helped me get out of my troubles. Seriously, he is one of the best and MOST GENUINE.

My wife was indicted on a drug charge and we hired Atlanta criminaldefense lawyer Howard Weintraub of the firm of Weintraub & Alper, P.C. to defendher. Mr. Weintraub did a fantastic job as he got my wife’s case dismissed withouteven having to go to trial! Mr. Weintraub then got my wife’s record expunged! Inrepresenting my wife he stayed in touch with us on an almost daily basis, evencalling her on the weekends. He treated both of us with so much respect. Althoughthe case against my wife is over and the task that we hired Mr. Weintraub to do hasbeen fully and totally satisfactorily completed by Mr. Weintraub, he continues tocheck on my wife and me and our baby son. Mr. Weintraub charged us a veryreasonable fee and he also has been helping me with a civil matter that I havearising out of my business, which matter involves several thousands of dollars, andhe is not even charging me for this extra work. My wife and I are very thankful thatwe hired Howard Weintraub to represent my wife and we both stronglyrecommend Howard Weintraub to anyone who needs a great criminal defenselawyer. Simply put, Howard Weintraub is the best criminal defense lawyer and wefeel you should hire him to help you with your case.

I was charged with using a telephone to try to buy Xanax, which I previously had been prescribed by my doctor. My doctor no longer would refill my prescription so I resorted to buying Xanax on the street. A conviction for this conduct would have resulted in me having a felony criminal record. As the mother of an eight-month old baby, I clearly could not have a felony conviction or even a misdemeanor conviction. I certainly could not have handled going to prison for even one day, let alone months or years! My husband and I did not know of any criminal defense lawyer to help me and as a thirty-year old mother of my young baby I was unable to reach out to my parents for help as both my mother and father are deceased. I prayed to God for guidance and he brought me to Atlanta criminal defense attorney Howard Weintraub. From the first time that I spoke with Mr. Weintraub on the phone through the end of my case I knew that he was the best attorney I could have hired to represent me. Because I live over 50 miles away from Mr. Weintraub’s office and because my ride to his office would be difficult as I would have to bring along with me my eight-month old baby, Mr. Weintraub decided that our relationship would be conducted through telephone conferences and email correspondence. After several lengthy telephone conversations, Mr. Weintraub obtained a complete understanding of the facts of my case and of my life’s history and of my life’s events that he felt were useful to my defense. Within a few weeks of hiring and conferring several times with Mr. Weintraub he decided to contact the prosecutor handling my case so he could make a presentation to the prosecutor as to why he felt my case should be dismissed. Unbelievably Howard Weintraub was completely successful in his efforts as he convinced the prosecutor to totally dismiss my case: No conviction for anything, No time in prison, No payment of a fine, No community service, No probation, No criminal record. Nothing!!
As equally unbelievable, is how this man treated me. After learning that both of my parents had died, Howard treated me like I was his very own daughter. I felt that Howard truly cared about me and I felt that he was really dedicated to getting me through my case without me being convicted of anything. I can honestly say that I felt Howard Weintraub was dealing with me as a father would act on behalf of his own daughter. Howard Weintraub would call me at all times of the day and, even after his work hours at nights, and he would call me even on the weekends. It was if I were his only client, which I knew was not so as he and his terrific partner Benjamin Alper must have over a hundred cases. He insisted that I stay in constant touch with him by phone calls and text messaging. Mr. Weintraub has even told me that he wants to stay in touch with me over the years as he feels so bad over the loss of my parents and he says he is so impressed with how I have turned my life around. After court he even waited around so he could see my son and hushband. He really is just an all around good persona and for that I am so thankful.
Howard Weintraub’s concern over me is 100% genuine and I thank him so very much for what he has done for me and for how he has treated me. If you ever need an aggressive and compassionate criminal defense lawyer who knows how to fight for you I highly recommend that you hire Howard Weintraub to represent you.

Over 13 years ago Howard was able to help me with a legal matter that helped simplify my life in a huge way. That alone was an incredible feat. Just recently I discovered I had an issue with something that came out of that case 13 years ago. I called Howard, and after 13 years he picked up the phone and helped me. He gave a lot of attention to my issue and he didn't have to. After 13 years he didn't even hesitate to help. He is a busy guy and he treats you like you are his only client.

Mr Howard Weintraub is absolutely amazing. My boyfriend had a case in Georgia that no other lawyer would go near because he was out of state. Howard got him out of jail and worked diligently to close this case with the best possible outcome. He called very frequently to check on my boyfriend with how he was doing. The police had taken a large amount of money and Howard got it back. He got my boyfriend a wonderful deal with the case in Georgia and no court costs. I would highly reccomend Mr. Weintraub to anyone who needs a diligent smart and compassionate straight shooting lawyer.

If I had the chance to call anyone else, I wouldn't. The moment I called Howard Wentraub office I knew he could help me. The little lady name Patti told me he would call me. He did, in the midst of grabbing lunch we chatted about my case! That was last October. Even thou money wasn't a problem that wasn't the issue with him, he wanted to keep me out of harms way which was jail. Finding Howard Wentraub wasn't by accident it was on purpose. Don't hesitate to call. You'll feel right at home. Mr Wentraub you're a blessing and guess what? Thanks a million!

I spoke with the secretary on the phone very briefly .....I have never heard of an attorney consultation price upfront $1500.00 for two hours and not know if I am going to be represented or if the attorney can handle my case.... in my opinion only just seems like it's about the money more than the client. I read the reviews before calling ....didnt seem too welcoming...

I just wanted to thank Mr. Weintraub for helping my sister get her felony conviction turned into first offender status. He even got 2 years of her probation dismissed. She searched for an attorney for several years to find one that could retroactively change her sentence. After one call with Mr. Weintraub he accepted her case. I knew she just had to find an attorney willing to put in the work. And she did. I strongly recommend Mr. Weintraub to anyone looking for a criminal defense attorney.

I hired Howard Weintraub to do some legal work for me after being wrongly accused. I found him to be very knowledgeable and responsive. He always personally returned my phone calls and I always felt his whole attention was on me and my case. He is a very dedicated attorney with a ton of experience. Howard believes in what he is doing and stays with you to the end. This was a frightening experience for me but I never felt that my case was in the wrong hands. In the end, all charges were dropped/dismissed. Thanks Howard!

Howard Weintraub and Benjamin Alper are two criminal defense attorneys who are driven by their hearts and souls, and their compassion, sympathy and understanding. Almost three years ago, Mr. Weintraub and Mr. Alper had successfully represented me in my criminal case in Atlanta without any charge to me for their phenomenal legal services.
My relationship with Mr. Weintraub and Mr. Alper began in September, 2014, when I appeared in Fulton County State Court. It was my 3rd appearance as I had been struggling financially. I had received a continuance the prior 2 court appearances. The courtroom was overly crowded with at least 150 people and an additional 25 attorneys. Judge Eady was on the bench and called my case.
The prosecutor asked if I’d retained an attorney and I told her I had not because the money had to be used elsewhere. She immediately began telling Judge Eady that this was my 3rd appearance and I had failed again to come to court without council. She was visibly upset with me. The judge proceeded to ask me what had been so important that I couldn’t retain an attorney. By now all eyes were on me so I had no choice but to tell him.
I told the judge that just 2 weeks ago I’d lost my 14 year old daughter to suicide. I told him I had not worked since and all my savings were being spend on the funeral arrangements.
You could have heard a pin drop in the crowded courtroom. The prosecutor immediately sat down and it was all I could do just to stand there with tears in my eyes.
That is when one of the attorneys stood up in the front and addressed Judge Eady. He said “Your Honor, Howard Weintraub, nice to see you again. I am here on another case but after hearing this gentleman’s story, my heart goes out to him and his tragic loss. I, and my partner Benjamin Alper will represent Mr. Lawson pro bono.
Judge Eady thanked him and he came to the back to meet me. He shook my hand and hugged my neck and we went to an adjoining meeting room.
Mr. Weintraub took the time to hear the story of my daughter and his genuine concern for my well-being really touched me. We discussed briefly my case and he said he would be in touch with me as to how to proceed. The very next day he called and I went to his office, we met a number of times before I went to court but Mr. Weintraub and Mr. Alper simply did everything for me.
Ben was able to get my driver’s license reinstated in just one day and when I went to court they had the mandatory 10 days in jail sentence totally dropped. Being in the situation I was in, especially under the circumstances I truly don’t know what I would have done without the two of them.
Since then both Howard and Ben have individually contacted me, just to make sure I was doing alright and make sure I understood they were thinking of me. I truly don’t know what I would have done without the kindness and professionalism of both Howard Weintraub and Ben Alper. They both helped me through the most difficult time imaginable. And now, in May, 2017 when I am in need of very good attorneys in an unrelated matter, Howard and Ben again are helping me and again at no cost to me.
I will say it was my privilege to have those two men stand beside me and represent me. I whole heartedly recommend Howard Weintraub and Ben Alper for your representation as they both truly care about their clients and give 110%.
I can’t thank the two of them enough.

Mr. Weintraub represented me back in August of 2015. I'm a 20 year old male who got mistakenly accused and didn't know what to do. My family hired Mr. Weintraub who made everything all the more bearable. He was kind, understanding, worked all day and night, and I am beyond grateful for him. If it weren't for Howard's non-stop devotion to my case and getting all charges dropped, I'm not sure where I would be today.

I will never hope for my worst enemy to deal with Mr Weintruab.I had no prior criminal record,a stable job and a family.I was falsely accused,He refused to investigate for me with almost $12,000.He couldn't even get me a bond for that much money.He had me take investigatory polygraph which I passed pretending they were admissible in court,he later flip the script and started demanding for more money that was never initially discussed.I could not afford more money then he withdrew from my case.and left me in jail for many months before i could get another lawyer!

It took me 3 years to find someone to take my case. I called every lawyer in Catoosa County, which was the place of my case. No one wanted to do the work it took for my case to be resolved. Thankfully, I found Mr. Weintraub. He is the kind of person who works 24/7. I truely felt like he cared about my case. Pat and Ben, his team are excellent too! I highly recommend him, if you need this type of attorney.

“Howard Jarrett Weintraub and Benjamin Black Alper represented me in a $200,000 embezzlement prosecution in Superior Court in Georgia. While I was in jail following my arrest, my mother researched for a criminal defense lawyer to represent me. Through the Lord’s guidance, my mother contacted The Law Offices of Howard J. Weintraub, P.C. Shortly after having been retained, Attorneys Weintraub and Alper were able to get me out of jail on bond. Howard and Ben thereafter guided me through the process of evaluating the strength of the State’s case against me and they were continuously in contact with me and were always available to answer any of my questions. Where attorneys Weintraub and Alper really excelled was during the phase of working out a deal with the prosecutors, as I admittedly clearly was guilty of stealing all of the money. In the end, through their tenacious defense of me attorneys Howard Weintraub and Benjamin Alper worked out an incredible disposition of my case allowing me not to have any conviction at all for stealing $200,000. I highly recommend The Law Offices of Howard J. Weintraub, P.C. to any person in need of incredibly talented, dedicated, well-prepared and tenacious criminal defense attorneys.”
