Overview

Ever needed to know a judge's voir procedures? Or if a judge allows e-mailed briefs? Or what the court thinks of alternative dispute resolution?

Georgia's Bench Book will tell you, in the judge's own words, the preferences for courtroom etiquette and procedures.

With the time and expense you spend preparing your case, don't let court procedures trip you up in the courtroom, where it really matters.

The Georgia Bench Book, continuously updated and easily searchable, has a complete phone listing of federal, state and local courts in Georgia, biographies on federal, state and metro-Atlanta judges, and the internal operating procedures of metro-Atlanta courtrooms.

In addition to the biographies on judges, each judge provides insight into trial scheduling, motion practice, pretrial and trial procedures, decorum, pet peeves, staff names and numbers, and much more.
