Experienced Criminal Defense Attorneys

When money is tight, it can be tempting to hire the cheapest lawyer. It is important to acknowledge that when it comes to attorneys, as with everything else, you often get what you pay for.

When you are facing criminal charges that could lead to substantial fines and possibly prison time, it is important to look for a criminal defense attorney who has:

• Years of experience handling the defense for a wide variety of criminal charges, including white-collar crimes, state and federal criminal tax matters, securities fraud, insurance fraud, drug cases, violent crimes, and sex crimes.
• A practice focused on criminal defense, including grand jury proceedings, appeals, post-conviction relief, and related civil litigation matters.
• Certification as a specialist in criminal trial practice by such organizations as the Florida Bar and the National Board of Trial Advocacy.
• Excellent peer reviews. Mark Horwitz and Vince Citro are AV Preeminent® Rated attorneys* and have also been recognized by The Best Lawyers in America® and Florida Super Lawyers®.

The importance of retaining knowledgeable and skilled criminal defense attorneys increases with the complexity of the charges against you and the nature of your case.
