“You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law. You have the right to an attorney…” are the words spoken by the arresting officer. He continues to walk you to the squad car, instructs you to get into the back seat, then slams the door shut. As you sit there with your hands cuffed behind your back, you wonder how any of this came to be and what are your chances of getting out of this situation.

The term “criminal offense” describes any action that is forbidden and punishable by law. Some of the most common criminal offenses include:
Each offense may carry a different penalty, but they are all severe charges to face and you should take them seriously. Whether it be your first criminal offense or one of many, the importance of having legal representation doesn’t waver. It is for this reason why you should act fast to seek legal help immediately after your arrest.
No matter how much you try to plead your innocence, law enforcement officials couldn’t care less. As far as they are concerned, you’re guilty of the charges and they’re just waiting for you to admit it. Rather than allow the bravado of law enforcement to cower you into a guilty plea, assert your right to an attorney by placing a call to The Umansky Law Firm. Here you will find eager criminal defense lawyers who understand that every case is unique, thus allowing us to approach each case with an open mind. Through a thorough analysis of case details and your account of the incident, your criminal defense attorney can help you get charges lessened or even dropped.
In Florida, there are diversion programs that seek to dismiss the criminal charges of some offenders. This means your criminal charges can be solved more quickly and without much stress. For many Florida residents, qualifying for a diversion program will significantly change the outcome of their case. Pretrial diversion (PTD) is an alternative to prosecution for selected misdemeanor offenders. The process of determining eligibility can feel complicated, but an experienced defense attorney can help guide you through each step.
