Jody D. Peterman, LLC offers personal-injury and criminal-defense representation to people in Georgia. If you are in Social Circle, the local city records page and directory can help you identify relevant city contacts, while the office named on your own paperwork remains an important point of reference. The firm’s office is in Valdosta, and it serves clients statewide in Georgia.
Before an attorney discussion
- Identify whether your concern involves a serious injury connected to another party’s negligence or a serious felony charge.
- Gather the documents you already have that describe the injury, incident, charge, or case.
- Look for the named office and responding agency on each document; keep those details with the document.
- Separate injury-related materials from criminal-charge paperwork so the two matters are easier to discuss.
- For a city records request, use the City of Social Circle JustFOIA Portal link on the city’s Open Records Request page.
- For a city-office question, use the City Hall contact; for a directory contact, distinguish City Clerk from Clerk of Court.
Personal-injury representation
The firm represents people seriously injured because of another party’s negligence. That is the firm’s stated personal-injury focus; whether a particular situation fits is a matter to discuss with the firm.
Before that conversation, collect the materials you already have that describe the injury and incident. Keep their dates and the names of any offices or responding agencies shown on them together, so you can explain what happened and what records you have.

Criminal-defense representation
The firm represents clients facing serious felony charges in Georgia. Criminal-defense concerns are distinct from an injury claim, so organize charge-related paperwork separately from injury materials.
Bring or refer to the documents that identify the charge and any office or agency named on them. The firm says the first conversation is a chance to understand the general nature of a matter and identify appropriate next steps.

Use local city contacts precisely
For a Social Circle city records request, the city’s Open Records Request page directs readers to a link labeled City of Social Circle JustFOIA Portal. The city also identifies City Hall at 166 North Cherokee Road, Social Circle, GA 30025, with PO Box 310 and telephone 770-464-2380.
The city directory gives separate listings for City Clerk, 770-464-6902, and Clerk of Court under Administrative, 770-464-6904. These are distinct directory contacts; check the office named on your paperwork rather than treating the titles as interchangeable.

Prepare for a focused first conversation
Set aside the documents most directly related to your concern and note which office or responding agency appears on each. For a city records matter, distinguish the city portal reference from the City Hall contact; for court-related paperwork, retain the court or office name as written.
Jody D. Peterman, LLC lists statewide Georgia service and its office at 304 North Ashley Street, Valdosta, GA 31601, telephone 888-599-9052. Retain the firm contact separately from Social Circle’s City Hall and two differently labeled Clerk directory contacts.
