Shiv Sachdeva for District Attorney
Hall and Dawson Counties

Shiv’s goal is to bring a new standard for justice and professionalism to the District Attorney’s Office
The victims in our community deserve real justice, not an absentee District Attorney. Professionalism grounded in the rule of law, sound judgment, and respect for the process that we are sworn to uphold. It is time that we work with law enforcement to bring criminals to justice.
Personally Prosecuting Violent Crime
Shiv will not pass the buck or delegate the most crucial cases to subordinates; he will be the one in the courtroom personally prosecuting violent criminals to ensure our neighborhood's safety.
Standing In the Gap With Law Enforcement
Working as a true partner with law enforcement to ensure that the work done on the streets by law enforcement is backed up by aggressive prosecution in the courtroom.
Accountability for Victims and Families
Shiv will renew the District Attorney’s commitment to victims, making certain that those who have been harmed by crime are heard, supported, and treated with dignity throughout the process.





It's Time Victims Got the Justice They Deserve
We cannot afford an empty desk any longer. We deserve a hands-on prosecutor that will work with law enforcement to bring criminals to justice.

20 Years and This Is What We Get,
An Empty Desk
"I'm running because Hall and Dawson counties deserve a new standard for justice, one that stands in the gap. I know what's at stake. That's why I won't delegate your family safety to a subordinate. I will be the one in the courtroom personally prosecuting the cases that matter most. Together with law enforcement, I will set a new standard where your safety is our only priority."

Shiv Sachdeva is the kind of District Attorney our community needs.
For 18 years, he’s worked right here in Hall and Dawson counties as a prosecutor, handling real cases, working with victims, and holding criminals accountable. This isn’t just talk for him. It’s what he’s been doing all along, and it’s where he and his family are building their life.

He understands that the DA’s office should be focused on protecting victims, strengthening prosecutions, and making sure the system works the way people expect it to.

Shiv is an exceptional litigator who's fierce advocacy for the voiceless, unwavering integrity, and relentless pursuit of justice sets the standard for public service. For as much as I can speak to his professional accomplishments, his character as a friend, family man, and leader is what I believe this community needs to be its next district attorney."
