Trusted criminal defense attorneys serving Manatee County

When handling your case, we move quickly to protect your interests and preserve evidence for trial. Our attorneys often investigate the crime scene itself, secure police reports, and conduct interviews with any witnesses who were allegedly present at the scene of the crime. We may also interview the arresting officers to ascertain whether they complied with police procedure or abused the arrestee's constitutional rights.

We use this information to evaluate your claim and seek dismissal of your charges before having to go to trial. If the case cannot be dismissed, we work closely with clients to determine whether a plea agreement would be in their best interest. If the client chooses to plead, we work on negotiating a favorable plea agreement for our client with the prosecutor. If you decide to go to trial, you can rest assured that our lawyers have the dedication, experience and ability to help you secure the best possible results in your case.
