Joshua Thermon Teague

I grew up in Gilmer County, Georgia, my family moved into North Georgia in the early 1800s and has called this area home ever since. This close connection with the people of North Georgia has allowed me to be intimately familiar with the local area and values, the attitudes of the local juries, courts, politicians, judges, and prosecutors. I focus my practice on fighting for people who have been injured or accused of a crime. I represent people who have been injured in a car wreck, on a motorcycle, by a tractor-trailer or have a wrongful death claim due to the loss of a family member. I represent people accused of Arson, Assault, Aggravated Assault, Drug Trafficking, Drug Possession, DUI, DUI Drugs, Murder, Sex Crimes, Theft, and White Collar Crimes. I choose to fight, every day, for the accused, oppressed and despised – those who cannot fight for themselves. I do this because I have felt powerless, I have needed help, and I have depended on others who stood for me in my life. After law school, I decided to build a practice in my hometown. I rejected the notion of working for a large corporate firm in Atlanta. I wanted to join the fight for the outsiders and underdogs in my own community – to be a voice for compassion and mercy as well as justice for those that had all too often been ignored or overlooked. I fight for my Clients with everything I know. I work in their cases with empathy and passion. I feel their anxiety and pain. I do these things because I want to make a difference, not because I want to make money. I want my life to be of service to those who feel hopeless. This is why I continue in this fight day after day. I want to fight for the oppressed, the accused, the despised, the injured, to hold the powerful to account – every day for the rest of my life.
