Defending Florida Clients Charged With Violent Crimes
The prosecution usually takes violent crime and sex offenses very seriously. Generally, they assign their best and most experienced prosecutors to these cases. That is why it is important that you hire a criminal defense lawyer who has the experience and skill necessary to take on the government's seemingly unlimited resources.

Defense Against Accusations of Sexual Assault
A sex crime conviction results in harsh punishments that can plague a person for the rest of his or her life. For example, capital sexual battery is punished by life in prison without parole - roughly the same consequence for committing first degree murder.
Even when a person is freed after serving a jail sentence for a sex offense, he or she is labeled with sex offender status and has a GPS monitoring device placed on his or her leg. This status determines where a person can live and places a person in a unfavorable light within the community at large.
We will aggressively challenge the charges you are facing and utilize our extensive criminal law experience to help minimize the consequences of an arrest for a sex offense.
