Healan Law Offices, P.C.

Healan Law Offices has been in business in the Winder (Barrow County) area of Georgia since 1975.

Healan Law Offices began in 1975 when William D. Healan, Jr. (Bill) graduated from the University of Georgia school of law. Mr. Healan returned to his home town of Winder to open his practice. In the early days, Mr. Healan had a general practice, handling cases ranging from real estate to bankruptcy to murder. Mr. Healan quickly gained a reputation for hard work and dedication to his practice.

Although Bill Healan had various partners and associates over the years, the firm took its current form when his son, William D. Healan, III (Billy) graduated from the University of Georgia School of Law in 1996. Billy Healan had been interested in criminal defense since law school, after having interned at the UGA legal aid clinic.

As a third year law student, Billy Healan had the opportunity to try various criminal cases, including jury trials. This experience enabled Mr. Healan to be completely ready for the courtroom when he was admitted to the bar in 1996.

Since that time, Billy Healan has devoted his practice almost exclusively to criminal defense. He handles everything from speeding tickets to murder cases. A large portion of his practice is devoted to DUI defense. Mr. Healan has numerous reported appellate cases to his credit. He has gained the respect of the legal community, being voted as a rising star in Super Lawyers Magazine four times from 2005-2010.

Since Billy Healan joined the firm in 1996, the Healans have focused their practice areas with Bill handling divorce/family law matters and Billy handling criminal cases. Healan Law Offices also handles select personal injury cases. The firm will typically only accept a personal injury case if it involves a serious injury. We do not handle personal injury cases involving only neck or back sprain.
