Allen Trapp is a magna cum laude graduate of the college
of law at Georgia State University and is one of only four attorneys in the
State of Georgia board certified by the National College for DUI Defense.
Mr. Trapp is the only attorney in west Georgia who has fulfilled all
requirements of the NHSTA 24-hour
Standardized Field Sobriety Testing course, successfully completed a Drug Recognition Expert
course, and owns an Intoxilyzer 5000, the breath testing machine used by the
police all across Georgia.Mr. Trapp has obtained non-DUI dispositions in approximately two-thirds of his
DUI cases. He has, therefore, become the GO TO GUY FOR DUI in west
Georgia.
Mr. Trapp also handles other criminal matters and achieved considerable local
fame by winning his last three murder cases. You can read more about these
cases in
Other Cases of Interest.
A majority of our non-DUI
criminal cases are drug cases. With the Villa Rica Police Department,
Douglas County Sheriff’s Department, and other agencies targeting out-of-state
vehicles on I-20, we are representing more and more out-of-state motorists who
have been arrested for drug offenses on this stretch of highway.
Mr. Trapp is a frequent
lecturer on legal subjects at the State University of West Georgia, various
civic groups, and even police agencies. He is also a four-time graduate of the
advanced course "Mastering Scientific Evidence in DUI/DWI Cases." He is
frequently called upon to speak at continuing legal education seminars where he
shares with other attorneys his expertise in defending DUI cases.
