Contempt of Court

Accused of Failing to Comply with a Court Order?

Although most people have heard the phrase "contempt of court," you may have primarily associated it with something that can happen to lawyers. In the Atlanta area and throughout Georgia, anyone who fails to obey a court order risks being found and held in contempt of court. Under some circumstances, this can lead to an arrest warrant and even jail time for the accused person.

Being Held in Contempt of Court Can Have Serious Consequences

If you are being held in contempt of court, please seek legal counsel you can trust. If you anticipate such a problem because you are unable to meet a court-ordered obligation, having representation and fast action may both be critical to the outcome for you. At the Law Office of William P. Churchill, III, P.C., we advise people throughout the Atlanta metro and beyond, beginning with a free initial consultation.
