In addition to these powerful professional credentials our attorneys have combined over 25 years of practice in the specific arena of criminal law providing essential insight into the criminal justice system. As criminal defense lawyers respected by Florida’s courts, prosecutors, and police, our team is often able to resolve cases through negotiations and plea bargains. However, we follow a policy of “diplomatic negotiation while preparing for war” – we are at all times ready to go to trial if the process breaks down.

Effective representation in a criminal defense case requires the work of a team. Our trial lawyers are supported by staff trained and experienced in criminal defense law, and when it is appropriate, we enlist the help of the best investigators and experts on behalf of our clients.

It is our goal to prevent any of our clients from sitting in jail waiting for legal proceedings to commence. If you are under arrest, we will call on the court to reduce bail to a reasonable level, work with a bondsman to post bail, and present an aggressive defense to keep you from returning to jail.
