If someone was injured
The firm offers personal injury services. To prepare for a discussion, gather the records you have about the incident, any correspondence, and information identifying potential witnesses. Keep your account of what happened separate from assumptions about who was responsible.
For an incident involving local police, the Donalsonville Police Department lists its office at 204 South Woolfork Avenue and 229-524-2175. That contact identifies the city police office; it does not establish how to obtain a crash report or whether a particular record can be released. The firm can assess the matter and available records with you.

If you are facing a criminal accusation
The firm offers criminal defense services. Keep the documents you received together, note the agency and contact information shown on them, and preserve any related messages or records. Do not treat a general agency phone number as instructions about a specific case.
Donalsonville’s municipal court page lists 229-524-2118 and prints Seminole County Courthouse, second floor, 200 South Knox Avenue, as its case-hearing location. That printed address does not confirm where a particular current matter will be heard. Use the court papers you actually received and confirm arrangements before relying on the address. The court page also displays calendars from 2022 and 2023; those historic calendars do not establish a current hearing date or time.

Choose the local contact that matches the issue
For city administration, Donalsonville lists 127 East Second Street, Donalsonville, GA 39845, and 229-524-2118. The city police page separately lists 204 South Woolfork Avenue, Donalsonville, GA 39845, and 229-524-2175. The shared city phone number on the administration and court pages does not by itself identify the right contact for every question.
Seminole County lists its government contact at 230 Cherry Street, Donalsonville, GA 39845, 229-524-2878. The Seminole County Sheriff lists its main office at 208 Court Street, Donalsonville, GA 39845, 229-524-5115, and gives a separate jail number, 229-524-8396. These are distinct agencies and contacts: the county government number is not established as a court or universal records desk, and the jail number is not the routine contact for city-police matters.
