About:

I am an experienced Florida Criminal Defense Attorney serving Duval, Clay, Nassau and St. Johns Counties primarily. I am committed to defending the rights of the accused. My criminal law practice is 100% devoted to criminal defense. I have defended thousands of clients throughout my career and prosecuted none. Zero. Unlike former prosecutors, I have never worked a single day to send anyone to jail or prison. Police will say protecting the streets isn’t a 9-to-5 job. Neither is protecting your rights. If you or a loved one is arrested, you expect immediate response. And I am here to give it to you: 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Choosing a Jacksonville Criminal Defense Lawyer is an important decision, not only because your freedom is at stake, but because a criminal conviction can affect the rest of your life. Not all Jacksonville Criminal Attorneys are trial lawyers and it is crucial to ask a potential criminal defense attorney about their specific trial experience. When your life is at stake, experience is essential. Ask the prospective attorney whether or not they were the "first chair" in previous trials. A "first chair" is the primary attorney in a trial who develops the theory of your case, prepares the case for trial, argues any motions, cross-examines all witnesses and fights for your innocence. Not all criminal cases end in a trial, but you need to have that option and you need to have a lawyer prepared to go to trial. I represent people charged with all felonies, misdemeanors and municipal ordinance violations in Florida, with an emphasis on Northeast Florida. There are many crimes on can be arrested for, including theft crimes, sex crimes, violent crimes, domestic violence crimes, child abuse crimes and DUI.

"I am so grateful for her. She resolved my situation in less than two weeks, and I am forever thankful. Also, if you’re like me and struggle with anxiety, she is absolutely the best person to turn to. She was always quick to respond whenever I reached out, answering all my questions promptly and putting my mind at ease. I truly appreciated that. She’s incredibly professional, kind, and gets straight to the point—she gets the job done!"

"Worst attorney in Jacksonville, very incompetent. I said many times the police report was made up, and there were witnesses. She still went to court and let a very pathetic judge bully her. She had no problem taking my money and pretending she was going to do something. Stay away from cowards like this. They give a bad name for Americans that actually work hard…"
