How Do You Select a Criminal Law Lawyer?

>> Criminal Defense Lawyer in Miami, FL

 If you have been arrested, detained, violated on your probation, or have in any way come into contact with Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Broward County, or Florida State Officials regarding a criminal matter, you need an attorney.  If you have been accused or arrested in a Federal Criminal Matter, you need help, fast.  Here are actions you should and should not take:

• Do not talk to any of these officials about your situation
• Do not discuss, brag about, or talk about what you have done on Facebook or other places on the internet. 
• Do not right an email or a text to anyone about the matter
• Do call a skilled and experienced attorney immediately

For instance, you might call someone like Fort Lauderdale and Miami criminal attorney Harris Gilbert and Andrew Smallman.  Their firm focuses primarily on Criminal Defense and DUI defense in Miami and Fort Lauderdale as a major part of our practice.  Prior to opening their practice, both criminal attorney Harris Gilbert and Andew Smallman worked together handling cases at the Broward County Public Defender’s Office.  There they obtained the skills needed to aggressively and successfully defend any type of client.

They chose to move into the private practice of Miami / Fort Lauderdale Criminal Defense work so they could spend more time on their client’s case.  This is a huge benefit to you.  They are able to focus on pre-trial motion practice and dealing with the prosecuting attorney in order to get charges dropped or reduced.

If pre-trial actions have been exhausted and we have been unable to get a result that you and we are happy with, our legal staff moves onto trial preparation.  Now each criminal attorney gets your case ready to be heard by a jury of your peers, or when we feel it is appropriate, a judge.
