Pre-Arrest Investigations
If you have been contacted by a law enforcement officer, contact us immediately. Although any statement that you make to law enforcement may be misconstrued, and ultimately used against you, your side of the story can best be told through your Florida criminal defense attorney. We strive to convince law enforcement that an arrest is not warranted. In the event law enforcement does intend to make an arrest, your attorney can usually negotiate your surrender under terms that may speed up your release, contact the prosecutor to discuss lowering the bond amount and handle other important details that will minimize the embarrassment, stress and expense that normally accompany an arrest.
Effective Pre-File Negotiations
If you have been arrested on a felony charge, but not yet formally charged by the State Attorney's Office in Florida, we work quickly to present all mitigating factors and exculpatory evidence to the State Attorney's Office in an attempt to convince the prosecutor not to file charges, or to file only greatly reduced charges. The State Attorney's Office in Florida typically makes a filing decision within 21 days of your arrest, so act quickly to preserve all avenues of attack.
When you cannot afford to lose your case, contact the Sammis Law Firm, P.A. for a free immediate consultation over the phone or in the office. We can begin your defense today.
