Central Florida DUI Lawyer
Facing a criminal charge can be a frightening experience. A conviction might mean hefty fines, jail time or loss of driving privileges. It is important to schedule a consultation with a knowledgeable attorney at the first sign that you might be charged or arrested.
As a Sanford criminal defense lawyer, I have guided clients through a broad array of criminal charges. I provide legal advice and representation to residents in communities throughout Florida in a wide range of matters, including:
- DUI defense
- Domestic violence defense
- Traffic violations defense
- Driving with license suspended defense
No matter how complex the case, it is always my goal to protect my clients' individual constitutional rights and hold the state to their burden of proof. Individuals are innocent until proven guilty. If you or a loved one has been arrested or charged with a crime, it's wise to consult with an attorney quickly. I can investigate all of the aspects of your charge from the police report, to witness statements, to the scene of the alleged crime in order to build an effective defense strategy.
My experience allows me to understand the state's case, and find the strengths and weaknesses of its strategies. I will explore every legal strategy possible to protect my clients' rights and defend their freedom.
It is also important to note that you should never speak with law enforcement officers without a lawyer present. You have rights spelled out in the Constitution, and I encourage you to invoke them. Be polite, but inform the officers that you will not be answering any questions without your attorney.
