Violent Crimes & Weapons Offenses
Being charged with a violent crime or weapon offense in Florida can have life-altering consequences. Whether you are facing charges for assault, robbery, homicide, or possession of a firearm, the stakes are high. A conviction can lead to lengthy prison sentences, significant fines, and a permanent criminal record that could impact your future opportunities.
At our firm, we understand the serious nature of these charges and the urgency of mounting an aggressive defense. We will thoroughly investigate the circumstances surrounding your case, challenge the evidence, and fight relentlessly to ensure your rights are protected.
Violent Crimes
Violent crime charges can stem from a wide range of offenses, including but not limited to:
Assault & Battery
These charges can arise from physical altercations, but it’s essential to know that self-defense or a lack of intent can serve as powerful defenses.
Robbery
If you are accused of using force or threats to steal property, we can examine whether the prosecution has sufficient evidence to support their claims.
Homicide
These charges carry the most severe penalties. We will work to uncover any weaknesses in the case, including questioning the validity of evidence and the intent behind the alleged crime.
Weapons Offenses
Weapons offenses are some of the most heavily penalized crimes in Florida, especially if they involve firearms or other dangerous weapons. Whether you are facing charges for unlawful possession, trafficking, or discharging a firearm, our experienced team will develop a strategic defense tailored to your situation.
Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon
Florida law makes it a serious offense for a convicted felon to possess a firearm. We will explore all possible defense options, including challenging the evidence or seeking to have the charges reduced.
Aggravated Assault or Battery
Aggravated assault and aggravated battery are among the most serious violent crime charges in Florida, each carrying severe penalties if convicted. These offenses involve heightened elements of violence or the use of dangerous weapons, and they can result in significant prison time and long-term consequences. If you have been charged with either aggravated assault or aggravated battery, you need an aggressive defense to challenge the evidence and protect your rights.
Armed Trafficking in Substances
Armed trafficking in controlled substances is one of the most serious charges in Florida, carrying severe penalties that can include lengthy prison sentences and substantial fines. When you face a charge of trafficking drugs while armed, the stakes are even higher. The combination of narcotics trafficking and possession of a weapon can lead to mandatory minimum sentences, making it crucial to have a skilled and aggressive defense team on your side.
