Sex Crimes/Child Porn/Internet
Very few allegations can damage your reputation and future as much as a charge involving a sexual offense. Charges are very often made by someone without any type of physical evidence to support the charge. These charges are pursued very aggressively by prosecutors for many reasons, including the heightened attention by the news media in recent years. It is imperative that you hire an aggressive, competent attorney who is highly experienced in handling these cases. Your future, your job, your family and your reputation are at stake. We are not afraid to aggressively defend against sexual charges. We know from experience as former prosecutors and criminal defense attorneys that many times, allegations of sexual abuse are made up. We know what to look for. We know the defenses. We know how to handle the alleged victims. We have a team of investigators that know how to uncover invaluable information. We have the computer/Internet experts who can assist in child pornography cases. If you want an aggressive team on your side, call us.

White Collar/Economic Crimes
White collar or economic crimes typically refer to crimes committed by business people and professionals by deception, theft and fraud. These crimes differ from "street crimes," which tend to involve violence. Such crimes can be prosecuted by State or Federal authorities and can result in probation, repayment of restitution, fines, community control/house arrest or imprisonment. Such cases often involve large amounts of documents and bank records. They require an enormous amount of time. We handle these cases thoroughly, examining each individual document that is relied upon by the prosecution. They require detailed, thorough examination by a qualified attorney, who has the time that your case deserves.

DUI/Drunk Driving
We have a reputation for aggressively representing those who have been charged with DUI. We examine every factor that could affect your case. As former Palm Beach County Prosecutors, we have the added advantage of understanding both sides of the case. There are many procedures that a police officer must follow during his or her investigation of a DUI. An officer's failure to perform any one of these procedures could result in a dismissal of your case. How will you know if you are one of these people who should have his or her case dismissed? You won't know, unless you hire a qualified, highly experienced attorney.

It is critical that you contact an attorney as soon as possible. Many people do not know that you have only 10 days from the day of your arrest to request a Formal Review Hearing with the Department of Motor Vehicles. This hearing is very important because if you win, you will get your driver's license back. As your attorneys, we will prepare all of the paperwork needed to request this hearing and will prepare all the subpoenas necessary and required by the DMV to bring in all of the police officers for this hearing.

Drug Crimes/Trafficking
The most common drug charges are possession, possession with intent to sell, sale, prescription fraud and drug trafficking. Many drug crimes have "minimum mandatory" sentences. This type of sentence involves a severe sentence of several years in prison. These crimes are not considered "Violent" by prosecuting authorities. However, these sentences are often more severe than those received by people who have committed serious, violent crimes. It is critical that you hire an attorney who knows how drug deals are made, about drug sales, tricks and tactics used by police in order to catch someone selling or buying drugs. It is critical that you hire an attorney who knows about confidential informants who are routinely used by police and many times "entrap" an innocent person into buying or selling illegal narcotics. As former prosecutors and criminal defense attorneys, we know all the tricks used by law enforcement. We know what to look for in order to successfully defend your case.

Domestic Battery
You can almost always guarantee that when the police are called for a domestic battery, the alleged batterer is going to be arrested. This type of charge can have devastating consequences. After you are arrested, you cannot be released until you see a judge. Typically, this means that you will spend one night in jail before you see the judge. Typically, there will be a "No Contact Order" imposed by the Court. This means that you cannot have any contact whatsoever, direct or indirect, with the alleged victim. In essence, that means you cannot go home, you cannot see your family, you cannot see your children, and if you and the alleged victim work together, you cannot go to your job. An allegation of domestic abuse can lead to injunctions (restraining orders) and other restraints on your ability to work and live freely. We handle many of these cases. As former prosecutors and criminal defense attorneys, we know the tactics used by prosecutors who often encourage the victims to press on with charges. We aggressively defend these cases, which often are nothing more than a verbal dispute between spouses. Once we are hired, we will usually move to change the "No Contact" order so that you can resume your normal routine until the case is over.

All Other Crimes
While some law firms practice many areas of the law, we are 100% dedicated to the area of criminal defense. We aggressively and zealously defend the rights of those who have been accused of any crime, including but not limited to the following: Child Abuse; Arson; Assault; Assault and Battery; Sexual Assault; Bribery; Child Exploitation; Child Pornography; Internet Fraud; Stalking; Domestic Violence; Drug Crimes; Prescription Fraud; Embezzlement; Extortion; Failure to Register; Forgery; Fraud; Hate Crimes; Homicide; Indecent Exposure; Lewdness; Manslaughter; Vehicular Homicide; Molestation; Money Laundering; Murder; Obscenity; Pornography; Prostitution; RICO; Rape; Sexual Offenses; Theft; Robbery; Burglary of Dwelling.
