MM Criminal Defense is based right in Marietta, the heart of Cobb County, and we’re in these courtrooms regularly. We’re two former prosecutors who now defend the people of Cobb, with straight talk, real preparation, and genuine care.
Local Knowledge That Matters
Criminal cases in Cobb County can move through several different courts depending on the charge:
- Superior Court of Cobb County for felony cases.
- State Court of Cobb County for misdemeanors, DUIs, and traffic offenses.
- Magistrate and municipal courts for warrants, first appearances, and ordinance matters.
