Decades of Experience and Proven Case Results

We are attorneys with decades of experience and proven case results in criminal defense and civil representation. We have successfully defended highly publicized cases involving public corruption. We have navigated our clients through troubling grand jury investigations. As a result, many of our clients were never indicted.

Former Prosecutors Working for You

One of our principal lawyers is a former assistant United States attorney. Two others are former assistant state attorneys; one served in law enforcement leadership positions for many years prior to going to law school.

We know the law and we know how to defend your rights, whether you are a public official or a CFO of a major publicly traded corporation subject to potential criminal prosecution; an 18-year-old college student or a juvenile dealing with serious criminal charges or marijuana possession charges; or a mother of three accused of DUI.

Well-Prepared and Skilled Criminal Defense Lawyers

We do our homework and will be well-prepared for every legal matter we take up on behalf of a client. We are very comfortable in front of juries, having successfully handled a variety of jury trials. If you drive past our office after 6 p.m. on any given day, it is likely that the lights will be on with cars in the parking lot. We will work until we are satisfied that every possible avenue for defense and strategy has been covered. We do not just handle cases. We take your case personally.

The firm is based in Tallahassee, Florida, and its lawyers practice throughout the region and at all levels of Florida and Federal courts, up to and including the Florida Supreme Court and the Supreme Court of the United States. At the same time, when it is in a client's best interest, the firm works diligently to avoid litigation, all the while protecting the client's rights.
