Let us help you…

If you have been charged with a crime in Florida, it could affect you both now and in the future. Even a misdemeanor conviction could affect you later in life by showing up on your credit report when you apply for a job. You could also be barred from employment in certain jobs.

Never plead guilty to a criminal offense or say anything to the police without first speaking to an experienced criminal defense lawyer. Keep calm and call an attorney.

Our first goal is to achieve a dismissal or acquittal.

Our secondary goal is to pursue all available defenses or mitigation circumstances to help you achieve the best possible outcome.

We will ensure that your constitutional rights are preserved and protected throughout the entire judicial process.

Walter helped me through one of the most difficult times of my life. At every point in the process he provided me my options, explained the possible outcomes of pursuing each option, and took the time to clarify and explain any aspect of the legal process that I was struggling to understand. I felt confident through every step of the legal process (which spanned more than 2 years) that I had the best representation possible and someone who was truly going to advocate for me and seek the best possible outcome for me.
