Richard H. Goolsby, Sr. is a former career prosecuting attorney. I was a Georgia state prosecutor for a total of six years and a federal prosecutor, (Assistant U.S. Attorney), in Augusta, Georgia for over twenty years. I have more experience as a former federal prosecutor in trying federal white collar crime cases than any other attorney in Augusta, Georgia. During my twenty years as a federal prosecutor in Augusta, I received three Department of Justice awards for three of my the largest, most complex white collar criminal (fraud and public corruption) cases. I have also been fortunate to have successfully prosecuted some of the biggest white collar and public corruption criminal cases in the history of the State of Georgia. For example, I was the lead federal prosecutor in the recent successful federal prosecution of former Senator Charles Walker.

Now, I enjoy practicing criminal defense with my son at the Goolsby Law Firm, LLC. As criminal defense lawyers, we offer aggressive, experienced criminal defense for clients in major criminal cases throughout Georgia and in federal criminal cases throughout the United States. The Goolsby Law Firm, LLC. also regularly handles criminal cases, including fraud cases, income tax evasion cases, and all other types of criminal cases in all courts in Augusta, (Richmond County, Georgia), Martinez, Evans, (Columbia County, Georgia), and all other counties near Augusta, Georgia.
