Being charged with a criminal offense does not automatically mean a conviction is a foregone conclusion. Every person accused of a crime has a legal right to defend themselves against the criminal charges they are facing. In addition, the prosecution is held to a standard of proving beyond a reasonable doubt that the accused is guilty. Every defendant has a legal right to competent legal counsel to present his or her defense, which may include:

• Offering the jury or judge evidence that supports the accused innocence;
• Putting the prosecutions entire case under a microscope, exposing holes and deficiencies in the prosecutions case, and theory of the alleged crime;
• And the ability to present an alternative theory of the alleged crime.

The attorney you choose to represent your legal rights and freedoms in a criminal case may significantly affect the outcome of your criminal defense case.

Experience, qualifications, a track record for successfully representing criminal defendants, aggressive pursuit of justice... these are all things that you should look for in choosing an effective criminal defense attorney to fight for you in the defense of the criminal allegations against you.

"I am a former Assistant State Attorney. For years I litigated and handled thousands of criminal cases. I now use this experience to protect the legal rights and freedoms of those accused, arrested, and charged with committing a criminal offense."

If you have been charged with a crime, you need an attorney on your side who is knowledgeable of the law, experienced at trial, and able to negotiate for you from a position of strength. Call our law office 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 863.709.0808, or by using our online case evaluation form.
