Accused of a Crime in Northwest Florida?

From misdemeanors to the most serious felony charges, our criminal defense lawyers are committed to protecting your rights. We will not simply walk you into court to plead guilty. We exhaust your defenses and negotiate with the most favorable outcome in mind.

  • DUI/DWI (drunk driving)
  • Traffic infractions
  • Shoplifting and theft
  • Juvenile offenses
  • Probation violations
  • Burglary and robbery
  • White collar crimes (fraud, embezzlement, credit card theft)
  • Drug possession (cocaine, meth, marijuana, prescription drugs)
  • Drug trafficking and transporting
  • Assaults and battery
  • Domestic violence
  • Sex crimes
  • Murder and manslaughter (including capital crimes)

We also represent non-residents arrested while traveling through Florida, such as people charged with drug crimes after a traffic stop on I-10 or Highway 30A.
