My name is Larry Kohn and I graduated in 1994 from Emory University. Upon graduation I went to work in the financial services field but realized that really wasn’t what I wanted to do. I entered law school over at Georgia State and my father told me that I would have to pay for school myself.
I got a job in law school and worked all three years clerking for William Bubba Head, Georgia’s top criminal defense lawyer and top DUI defense lawyer. Upon graduating number seven in my law school class where most people go to work for big firms, I decided to stay doing what I love. That’s helping people who were charged with criminal offenses. I love what I do. I love being a criminal defense lawyer and I think it’s conveyed in my work.
