Gainesville, Florida Criminal Law Attorneys
We at Hutson & Brockway, P.L. defend the legal rights of those who are, or may be charged with a crime. We understand that this is probably the most stressful time in a person's life, whether the person has had no prior scrapes with the law, or whether that person is being held in jail without bond accused of multiple violations of probation on a serious felony offense. We take time to understand and investigate the facts of the matter to present effective legal and factual defenses, as well as to develop persuasive mitigation to present to the prosecuting attorney. We know that sometimes people are wrongly accused. We also understand that good people can make bad decisions, and that sometimes people need help for an uncontrollable drug and/or alcohol addiction. We offer help; we don't judge.
It's a simple fact that most matters are resolved prior to jury trial, whether by having the case dismissed in some fashion or another, or by the client accepting a plea agreement. However, if repeated attempts at resolving a matter fairly prior to trial are unsuccessful, the attorneys at Hutson & Brockway, P.L. have the necessary experience to take the matter to trial. We have handled through jury trial an extremely broad range of criminal cases, from misdemeanor cases to life felonies. For example, we have actual jury trial experience in first-degree murder, second-degree murder, aggravated assault with a firearm, armed kidnapping, armed robbery, DUI, domestic battery, felony theft, criminal mischief, trespass, obstructing an officer, and possession and sale of drugs, among others.
We believe that it is important to obtain legal representation as early as possible upon notification that you may be accused of a criminal offense. Without advice of counsel, you may give up or waive certain valuable rights by the police without receiving any consideration in return. Please call us for a free legal consultation if you believe you or a family member may be accused of a crime, before agreeing to speak with police. Remember the police have a job to look out for people besides you; looking out for you is our job .
