The Difference

Many lawyers claim to be experienced trial attorneys. There is a difference between experience and proven experience. I am one of fewer than 400 attorneys in the State of Florida who is board-certified in criminal trial law. In order to obtain this status, I had to document my trial experience and obtain reviews of my performance from other lawyers, as well as judges. I have a proven track record. Many of my cases have received national media attention. You can read about them in the archives of newspapers or view some of them under the Media section of my website or the websites of national and local news organizations. Before you hire me, or any attorney, first satisfy yourself that the attorney has the necessary experience to capably represent you in court.
