Greenacres Criminal Lawyer & DUI Attorney

DUIs
You should never need to worry whether the criminal defense firm you chose has attorneys cherry picking press worthy court cases and assigning everything else to over-worked, less qualified, associates and office personnel. You shouldn’t be forced to worry whether a law firm or attorney calculated your service fees based upon what they presume you could possibly pay – invoicing different clients different fees only because they look different! You shouldn’t. Yet unfortunately, you do.
I’m a veteran Criminal Lawyer, AVVO graded 10.0 in DUI and as well Traffic, 10.0 in Criminal Defense, and even 10 Best in Customer Satisfaction. I’m A/V Rated Preeminent by my peers and I have been selected into the Top 100 National Trial Lawyers. I regard each client just as he / she were my only client.
You’re browsing this article so you very likely have questions – or worse still, you may be in dire straits and have little idea of what to do, or exactly what questions you could inquire about. Do not procrastinate. Get an attorney promptly. The longer you delay the more difficult your case may become. You’re in search of answers. I know them.
A personal note from Josh:
This firm carries my name. Every case is taken very seriously, and every client is treated as if they were my only client. How it performs in court, how clients remember it, is my signature.
It is my legacy to my children.
Your concerns, questions and fears are important to me. I do my best to prepare you for all eventualities. The only thing worse than going through the criminal justice system, is going through it unprepared and alone.
Rates are affordable compared to others you will find because I personally handle every case. I am your attorney. I draft and argue Motions. I appear in court. I personally return calls. If you need me, you get me – not an assistant, secretary, paralegal or junior associate.
Be wary of criminal defense lawyers who misrepresent facts or the law to entice you to sign a retainer only to later reveal the “truth” of your case – and its true cost. We openly discuss your situation, your choices and strategize accordingly.
Since you’re reading this, I’d venture a guess either you, or someone you’re close with, needs an attorney. You’ve taken the first step and started to research your options. That’s good. you must be proactive in your defense at all times.
Take the next step, keep that forward momentum! The longer you take to find counsel the harder your case becomes. Drop me a note and let me know what the problem is.

- Marijuana Possession & Paraphernalia
Mary Jane, Marijuana, pot, weed, cannabis, chronic, krypy, etc., is not legal throughout the state of Florida. At the moment at any rate! The “It’s just a joint” mindset may very well result in a year in jail, a thousand dollar fine not to mention a mandatory driving license revocation. Possession of in excess of 20 grams is far more severe!
I have earned an impressive reputation for being a Greenacres Criminal Attorney standing up against all different kinds of illegal drug possession criminal charges through the years – most notably cannabis possession. Odds are good I will have your violations dropped, escape conviction 100%, and keep your license. However, do not forget, precisely what I am able to carry out can vary and is dependent on quite a few variables. So, call me and we will go over your options…
- Violent Crimes
Numerous offenses in Florida fall under this grouping. Violent crimes encompass, but aren’t restricted to, murder, kidnapping, rape or sexual battery, home invasion, robbery, carjacking, aggravated assault, aggravated battery, along with burglary. Nearly all carry compulsory prison sentences of which prosecuting lawyers will make it their top priority to acquire . If a gun is utilized through the course of committing the transgression the 10-20-life punishment code is strongly enforced.
It is very important you have an aggressive Greenacres Criminal Lawyer skilled in this area of law. I have successfully defended clientele in all the offenses discussed above – plus more. Contact us, we’ll go over exactly what occurred in the past, and then we can take a look at your potential future.
- Burglary (Breaking & Entering)
Curglary (Breaking & Entering, B&E) happens when an individual enters the building of a person with the intent to commit a crime. From a technical perspective, a burglary offense does not require proof of breaking in, neither will it require substantiation that transgression took place on the inside. Burglary merely must have evidence that whenever the home or property was accessed the person had the required intent.
Considering evidence of the burglary hinges on the intent at the instant of access , there are actually defenses. Who is going to undeniably tell you exactly what ones own intent had been? Speak with my firm and we will talk about just what those types of defenses are and just what they’re able to do for you.
- Felony Drug Possession
The most common reason behind police arrest across the USA is without question drug possession. Be it cocaine, illegally attained prescriptions (Xanax, Percocet, Oxycontin, Lortab, Etc.), crack, heroin, pcp, lsd, or peyote, possession of any illicit drug, except for small amounts of cannabis, is a felony in the Sunshine State. Punishments can call for imprisonment and also probation plus, in the State of Florida, a drug possession conviction leads to a obligatory driving license suspension .
Make sure you remember, just because you were near drugs doesn’t have to mean that you are guilty. Get in touch with my firm. I will look over your criminal charge. I will examine just how contact with the authorities developed. I will determine if your 4th Amendment legal rights have been breached. I will deal with the problem for you. I will help !
- Probation ViolationWhen on probation, somewhat ordinary everyday activities could very well put you in danger of violating your probation and as a consequence getting shipped into jail. I take pride in helping individuals in all probation issues, especially:
Violation Defense
Motions to Modify Probation
Motions to Terminate Probation
Engaging with Officers
Explanation/Interpretation of Probation ProvisionsThe finer points with your probation can be complicated, and possibly even contradicting once in a while. Tons of violations are typically brought on by innocent misunderstandings! You might want to come in for a complete evaluation of your “probation papers” before making a blunder that could violate your probation’s conditions. Allow me to walk you through the details.
If you think you’ve already violated the stipulations because of a misconception, or some other reason, contact me right away. I’ve successfully resolve many probation violation offenses through the years. Allow me to help you too.
- ExpungementsYour court case has now been dismissed. The actual violations have been completely dropped. However, at this point you’ll need to clean up your personal record on account any kind of a record check will yet still clearly show those offenses. A dismissed criminal case has the potential to put a stop to you from locating a real job, any kind of a job promotion, and also prevent you from achieving a number of different personal hopes and dreams.
The good news is, Florida’s statutes allows a person to expunge an entire charge/court case. Under certain stipulations, most pressing of which is you have never previously been found guilty of any type of criminal offenses. This means an array of violations from one court case, including a felony down filed to just a misdemeanor, may end up being thoroughly eliminated off of your record once and for all.
I will help clear away your criminal records. I can help place a charge behind you through the process of expunging the case. Contact me to go over how I will help you move ahead with your life.
- DUIs & Traffic TicketsOn individual’s capability for making simple errors is, in part, what makes them human. I consider that to be an undeniable fact. This is why I believe that a number of traffic associated fines are unjust. I’ve had great results in getting offenses mitigated, and even totally dropped. For specifics, drop by my Greenacres DUI Lawyer or my Greenacres Traffic Attorney resources.
