Florida Theft Crime Defense Attorney

A Florida theft crime case is likely to come down to physical evidence and witness testimony. There may be surveillance footage taken from a security camera at the scene. A witness may testify that the defendant took an item off a store shelf and put it in his or her bag. Depending upon the unique case, there is always something that a capable defense attorney can do to help work a case and the legal system in the defendant's favor.

What if physical evidence was obtained through an illegal search and seizure? What if a witness was actually unreliable as a source? As an experienced Charlotte County defense lawyer, I understand what to look for in finding weaknesses in the prosecution's case. I  know how to make the law work in your favor and how to assert your rights.
