Criminal Law Attorneys

In Orlando, Florida

If you have been charged with a crime or named as a "person of interest" in a criminal law case, you should retain an experienced criminal defense attorney to protect your rights. In Orlando, Florida, the criminal defense attorneys at Best and Anderson can help you.

If you are suspected of or charged with a crime, you have specific rights that originate from the U.S. Constitution and key court decisions. These include the right to remain silent, the right to an attorney, and the right to a speedy jury trial.

An experienced criminal defense law firm like Best & Anderson can take steps before trial that can minimize, reduce, or even prevent charges from being filed. Therefore it is extremely important to retain a criminal defense attorney as early in the process as possible.

Before charges are filed, we can help with a pre-file investigation. During this investigation, several things can happen:

  • An informal resolution to the case may be achieved
  • Charges may be reduced (for example, from a felony to a misdemeanor)
  • Filing of charges may be prevented

Ways that our criminal law attorneys may prevent charges from ever being filed include:

  1. Strengthening your perceived credibility
    • Having the client undergo a private polygraph and presenting favorable results from the polygraph to the investigating agency
    • Getting letters of character reference from impartial but credible parties such as:
      • Community leaders
      • Friends
      • Religious leaders
      • Teachers
  2. Undermining the credibility of the alleged victim by:
    • Questioning the character and legitimacy of the victim
    • Showing unsupported accusations the victim made against others

A criminal defense attorney can also assist you by:

  • Helping to negotiate a surrender to the law enforcement agency to avoid an unpleased and potentially embarrassing arrest experience
  • Reducing the client's anxieties about the case
  • Updating the client regarding the status of the case

It is extremely important to get experienced representation for your criminal defense because if you plead guilty or are found guilty in a jury trial you may be punished by:

  • Imprisonment
  • Probation
  • Community service
  • Fines
  • Other penalties

We handle many different types of criminal defense cases including:

  • DUI
  • Traffic Citations
  • Driver License Suspension Hearings
  • Juvenile Cases
  • Misdemeanors
  • Drug Offenses
