Fort Myers Criminal Defense Lawyer

A violent crime is usually one of the most serious charges a person can face. Particularly due to Florida’s three strike law (meant to discourage repeat offenders by enforcing increased penalties for a second or third conviction), being charged with a felony violent crime usually means that you will face extremely harsh penalties ranging from 5 years in state prison to life imprisonment. Certain violent crime convictions might even result in the death penalty for the offender.

Due to this, the importance of working with the right Fort Myers violent crimes attorney cannot be stressed enough. While not all violent crimes are felonies and will result in years of incarceration, even a misdemeanor violent crime conviction may result in up to 12 months in a county correctional facility. If a lawyer gets involved early enough, he or she may be able to uncover evidence that proves factual innocence, find a witness who can support your version of events, or even suppress evidence that was obtained through an illegal search and seizure.
