Germantown may not have its own full-service court system for criminal trials, but arrests in the area are processed through Shelby County courts, typically starting in General Sessions Criminal Court in downtown Memphis. These courts move quickly, and early decisions—including bond, plea offers, and preliminary hearings—can affect your entire case.
Germantown Police and Shelby County prosecutors take a proactive stance on crimes involving public safety, especially DUI, drug-related arrests, and domestic violence. Our team works to slow the process down, challenge questionable evidence, and keep you from being swept into a system designed to convict.
