Georgia Home Law

After a long summer break, I have finally returned to writing the blog.  And today's post is for the guys. 

Believe it or not, I was in court recently and saw grown men dressed like this:

Needless to say, this is not appropriate for court.  Hey guys - just as with the ladies, think about what impression you want to make to the judge, i.e., the only person who is able to determine the fate of your case.  Do you want him or her to think you would rather be at the beach?  Or at a concert?  Do you want him or her to think that you really don't care about the outcome of your case?  Of course not.  So don't look like it.

Clearly, you can't go wrong with a suit and tie. 



But the goal is to look put together, clean, and groomed.   In my opinion, khakis and a sport coat work just as well.  If you are giving witness testimony in a trial, a golf shirt tucked into a pair of khakis looks fine.  Remember: as long as you are "put together" you will be fine.

And a note about grooming, fellas.  You do not need to shave your facial hair or cut your long braids.  All you need to do is make sure it looks nice.  Clean your face or pull your hair back; that's all you really need.
