We represent clients in a wide range of violent crimes including:
- Assault: We represent people charged with felony and misdemeanor assault crimes, including those that relate to assault with a deadly weapon, physical attack, or threats of injury.
- Battery: Depending on the circumstances, the charges can be misdemeanor or felony. A felony conviction carries serious consequences, often including a lengthy sentence.
- Sexual Assault: Violent sexual crimes, like sexual assault and rape, are taken very seriously by the government. When you have been accused, we fight hard to protect your rights and defend you.
- Domestic Violence: In domestic violence cases, an arrest is usually mandatory. We have experience in resolving these offenses in various counties throughout the metro Atlanta area.
- Armed Robbery: Georgia law is serious about armed robbery. Even if an actual weapon was not used—if a replica, toy, or pellet gun was involved—a person can still be charged. Because of the nature of the charges, you need an experienced attorney to help you get the best possible results.
- Homicide: If you are convicted of homicide in Georgia, your life could literally be on the line—you need a strong, aggressive, and knowledgeable defense.
In addition, we handle cases related to family violence, stalking, sexual assault, and kidnapping.

Client Testimonials

- Previous Client
When I found myself facing multiple federal charges, I honestly thought my life was over. I was woken out of my sleep while lying next to my newborn at 5AM when they came to arrest me. It turned my world upside down. After looking at the Statistics, the probability of getting a dismissal in a federal case is around 5% and acquittal even lower, I felt hopeless.
From the moment I began working with Mr. Lotito, everything changed. He is not only incredibly knowledgeable and strategic, but truly one of the most compassionate, dedicated, and genuine professionals I have ever met. We talked about my situation for over an hour and then he invited me to his home to meet me in person. We spent hours discussing my case. Throughout the whole process I felt that he believed in me and it felt good to know he listened to my story. Other lawyers I spoke with immediately sent me retainer invoices before truly taking the time to listen.
His level of expertise is unmatched, but what sets him apart even more is how deeply he cares. He treated me with dignity, patience, and KINDNESS every step of the way. He kept me calm throughout the entire process and checked in with me regularly, which meant more than I can even explain.
After nearly two years of fighting, he was able to secure pretrial diversion for me, an outcome that will ultimately lead to a full dismissal. When you understand how rare that is, it speaks volumes about who he is and how hard he fights for his clients.
The moment I went to sign my diversion paperwork, he gave me a big hug, and I broke down crying tears of joy and relief.
I am so incredibly thankful for him and everything he has done.
If you are looking for an attorney who will fight relentlessly for you, stand by you, and truly care, I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Thank You Nick, For Justice! The state of Georgia indicted me on two counts of Racketeering that I did not commit. Nick defended me with dedication, caring, and skillfulness in interacting with all parties involved. Against almost insurmountable odds, he was able to get my case dismissed. I will be eternally grateful for all he has done for me. I consider him a superb criminal defense attorney and also call him my friend!- Harley
