Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

My brother had been in jail for 2wks now and he went because he was driving with suspended license but he has an outstanding warrant in another county for VOP for unpaid fines but that county has not yet picked him up so is there a time limit on them picking him up?, also if they do pick him up, what is the outcome and could a lawyer could help him get out of jail now?

There is no time limit. No one can tell you about the outcome, because you failed to include any facts other than the new arrest for a traffic violation. Yes, an experienced attorney could help, negotiate with the probation officer, and get him out faster. See my website on how to select a good attorney: www.lawrencelewispc.com Good luck.

There is no time limit. He needed a lawyer two weeks ago and every day he delays in getting counsel is one more day when his case is not addressed. A good lawyer is likely to be quite helpful even though there is no way to predict an outcome.
