Scott clearly rises head and shoulders above all others when it comes to competent, efficient, thorough and just overall excellent legal representation. He handled our matter in an outstanding manner from beginning to end, never once missing an opportunity to communicate with us, and always keeping us in the loop and fully advised from our initial meeting to the final hearing and beyond. His manner was always highly professional and yet at the same time sensitive, kind and thoughtful to our concerns and needs. If there was a rating of 10 stars and above, Scott would definitely qualify.

Scott Levine is an excellent attorney—highly professional and experienced. He assisted me through a challenging divorce, facing an uncooperative party with unreasonable financial demands. As he described, my case was an "unfair financial shakedown." He managed the entire process with honesty, transparency, and a clear understanding of realistic expectations and outcomes. Ultimately, he secured a satisfactory settlement for me. I felt that I received a fair deal, kept my home, and can now move on with my future. Scott is a great resource and ally in stressful legal situations. He communicates excellently, always responds to questions promptly, and charges reasonable fees. I will definitely seek his counsel for any future legal needs. Thank you, Scott.

I can’t say enough great things about Scott! From start to finish, he fought for me every step of the way and never left my side throughout the entire process. His dedication, knowledge, and commitment made a stressful situation so much easier to navigate. He truly cares about his clients and goes above and beyond to ensure the best possible outcome. If you’re looking for a workers’ comp attorney who will stand by you and fight for your rights, Scott is the one to call. Highly recommend!

If you have an amicable divorce go to a mediator or give a small retainer fee. This office has a NON-refundable refund for retainers. My case was during the holidays and after we signed everything the office went silent. I had to email to check status and then they would move the case. I wasn't even informed on when my divorce was finalized, I found it on public records. Although I am knowledgeable and know it was my mistake for not reading the terms, I hope this helps someone to ask about refundable retainer fees. My divorce billable hours were about 2,500. My retainer fee was 5,500 so the office made an easy $2,900.00. Hope this review helps someone in the future!

I will be forever grateful for their hard work and dedication. One of the best law firm in Broward county why not the whole state. If there is more than 5 stars they deserve that. The whole team believes in fairness and second chances. Once again, thank you for being here for me, and my family. Merry Christmas to you guys and your families.

Fantastic experience with Mr. Robert Malove. My husband called his office after what I thought was a minor traffic incident, which was quickly turning into something much worse. After we explained the details, we were put in touch with him immediately. He quickly addressed the situation and gave us excellent guidance and support. He is very responsive and kept us abreast of the ongoings. We now have closure and the outcome we sought. We highly recommend him without hesitation.

My cousin Gaby needed an attorney to handle a long, overdue divorce. English is not her first language and she was really nervous about the entire process. Daniel and his team were fantastic! They made everything easy and stress free and before she knew it, she was divorced and it was all over. Divorce is never pleasant, but having a great attorney on your team can make a big difference in your stress level.

He took special care to understand the issues in my case and the needs of my family during a difficult time. In my opinion, his office never let anything fall to the wayside. They were on top of it.  It is clear that Dan has a wealth of knowledge and experience. I always felt confident in him. He never made me feel like I had to concede on the things that were important to me in this case. If you need a strong lawyer, go with Daniel Forrest!

I went to his office and he met me right away. We spent over an hour talking and unlike other attorneys, he was not worry about the time. Fast forward, Mr Bruno not only did he cleared me of all criminal charges, he also cleared me of a civil charge. I was blessed to have met Mr Bruno. I can sincerely say that Mr Bruno is the attorney you want representing you in court. One last thing, you can text him even on the weekends and he will always reply back to you. He is very profesional, caring, and he won’t break your bank. I recommend Mr Bruno 100%!!

The absolute best! After my injury, I felt completely lost and vulnerable. Having never experienced anything like this before I didn’t know what to do or who to turn to… and then a friend recommended Theodore Enfield to me. From day one, I hung up the phone with a sigh of relief, feeling a huge burden was lifted off my shoulders. I knew I had placed my “burden” in their trusted hands. Andrew handled my case and was an absolute God send! He is exceptional, very kind and courteous; answered any and all questions I had, and kept me informed every step of the way. I always felt that I was being “heard”. He took the pain out of a painful situation, and gave me the hope and the confidence I needed to move forward. I cannot thank Andrew enough for all he did for me and I 100% recommend this firm to anyone who is looking for honest and trustworthy representation; that goes above and beyond your expectations!

Mitch Polay really delivers, I had a recent gun case in which the Judge had increased my bond from 1k to 85k and 24 hour lockdown at home, I was unable to work, go to the store nothing. Mitch was able to get me off the ankle monitor completely even got them to allow me to travel freely in and out the country on 4 felonies. Everything he said to me was always factual, he really was a man of his word. The D.A. Had mentioned I scored out to a mandatory prison sentence of 2 yrs minimum. Mitch worked tirelessly and around the clock staying in touch with me every step of the way. I still dont know how he did it but all my charges were reduced to misdemeanors and I was let off with one year probation, he assured and reassured me several times he would do what’s best for me and he absolutely overdelivered. Through the years he became not my lawyer that I hired But a great friend and mentor in many aspects of my life. He is a well respected and a true professional. I hope to never have to hire an attorney or ever get into any bad situations in my life ever again but if you have ever see yourself in cuffs and you need a real lawyer, don’t say anything other than I want To speak to my lawyer Mitch Polay and know that you will have someone in your corner who will not go down without a fight and will be there to the end alongside you. Thank you Mitch for getting me a chance to be with my family, allowing me to continue pursuing my goals and for all the advice and true friendship you have given wholeheartedly.

One of the worse attorney you can get. You don't want to risk your DUI case with this guy. He will take your money and disappear on you. Won't give you any legal advice, nor would he show up for your case especially if you are outside Miami area. He will send his network attorney that have no clue about your case. You might as well request a public defender and you maybe better off.

Hired Michael Braxton for 2 DUI charges both within just under 5 years. First charge failed road sobriety test but refused breathalyzer. DUI charge reduced to Reckless Driving (important in cases where 2nd charge could possibly happen within five years). 2nd DUI charge failed road sobriety and breathalyzer. Case was dismissed due to false arrest. In addition I never lost my driving priviledges. Great job and would hire again, but hopefully that won't be necessary again.

Mr. Canet is a lifesaver & the best attorney I could have ever asked for. The state wanted 8.5 years in prison and would not back down. My first attorney (NOT Canet) told me to take the 8.5 year plea bc my case was a clear win for the state and trial would be suicide. Within a month of hiring Mr Canet, he discovered missing evidence, contradicting testimonies AND internal investigation reports discrediting a key witness in my case. Once he started filing motions, he had the state so scared they put their best attorney on my case. At my first hearing, he had the state trembling & had the tenured officer on my case stuttering and fumbling his words. He made both of these experienced professionals look like unqualified rookies. Even the judge called the officers testimony “baffling” & pulled Mr. Canet to the side and said “you are a great attorney Mr. Canet.” He is aggressive and without a doubt the most knowledgeable in any courtroom. He is honest, fierce and a force to be reckoned with in the courtroom. Needless to say I am a free man today, Thanks to Mr. Canet. If you want a second chance at life, look no further, just pick up the phone, call him & Mr. Canet will go to war for you.

I decided to use Carlos's after speaking with several attorneys after receiving another DUI charge with very special circumstances and a blood draw with serious consequences and several grey areas. Carlos was not the cheapest and made no promises but that is why I choose him. He was extremely knowledgeable of the law and very professional and always available. I couldn't have been more happy with my choice and can assure he was worth every penny. He kept me out of jail and continues to help me with my needs after the case has been settled. Other attorneys will promise the world and then leave you hanging. I've never recommended or reviewed an attorney ever but I thought it was the absolute least I could do. I can't say Thank you enough Carlos... Thank you, Tim

So proud to have worked with this awesome company. Any, one, normal person is protective of their info; and when my mom suggested this team I became even more skeptical. However, after my consultation with Ms. Lee, I felt so at ease and she was super understanding. What seemed like the impossible, she took on and some months later that impossible came to fruition. Thankful for everything they did on the back-end. Thorough, attentive and responsible. I pray you will have a wonder of years to come, an abundance of clients, and always great reviews. Most of all I pray you will always have a solution to any and every situation…in accordance with your your brilliant work ofcourse. if your on your last options like I was, I highly recommend their services as a possible option.

I consulted with several attorneys prior but the search honestly ended with Atty Bishow as I immediately recognized that I was in the best hands. She is the only attorney that you will find with the patience, understanding, and empathy that you need while going through the legal drama, yet still leads with professionalism, experience, and razor-sharp wit. Atty Bishow is like a fierce secret weapon, and if she's in your corner, you've already won.

What a Criminal Defense Lawyer Can Do for You

A criminal defense lawyer provides legal representation to individuals or organizations accused of criminal conduct. If you're facing criminal charges, a defense lawyer will work to protect your rights, build a defense strategy, and ensure you receive a fair trial. Their primary goal is to reduce or dismiss charges, secure an acquittal, or negotiate a favorable plea deal.

Criminal defense lawyers have extensive knowledge of criminal law and court procedures. They investigate your case, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's evidence, and represent you in court, ensuring that you have the best possible defense.

When Should I Hire a Criminal Defense Lawyer?

It’s crucial to hire a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible if you are facing any criminal charges. Some situations in which you should seek legal representation include:

  • Arrest or police questioning: If you've been arrested or are under investigation, hiring a lawyer early on can prevent self-incrimination and protect your rights during police questioning.
  • Felony charges: Crimes such as murder, assault, drug trafficking, or robbery carry severe penalties, including long prison sentences. A defense lawyer is essential in these cases.
  • Misdemeanor charges: Even for less serious offenses like DUI, theft, or simple assault, a lawyer can help reduce penalties, negotiate alternatives to jail, or get charges dismissed.
  • Plea negotiations: If you’re considering a plea bargain, a lawyer can evaluate the deal, advise you on its consequences, and negotiate for more favorable terms.
  • Probation or parole violations: If you’ve been accused of violating probation or parole, a lawyer can defend you against additional penalties or revocation.
  • Juvenile offenses: For minors charged with criminal acts, a criminal defense lawyer can protect their future by minimizing legal repercussions or keeping the case in juvenile court.

What Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?

Criminal defense lawyers provide comprehensive legal services to protect their clients’ rights throughout the criminal justice process. Their duties include:

  • Case evaluation and investigation: Reviewing the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and investigating the facts to develop a strong defense strategy.
  • Legal advice: Advising you on your rights, the charges you’re facing, and potential defense strategies, including whether to take a plea deal or go to trial.
  • Negotiating plea bargains: Working with prosecutors to negotiate a plea deal that could reduce charges or minimize penalties.
  • Court representation: Representing you in all court hearings, including bail hearings, pretrial motions, trials, and sentencing hearings.
  • Filing motions: Filing motions to dismiss charges, suppress evidence, or reduce bail, depending on the specifics of your case.
  • Trial preparation and defense: Preparing a defense strategy and presenting arguments, evidence, and witnesses during trial to contest the prosecution's case.
  • Appeals: If you are convicted, a defense lawyer can appeal the conviction or sentence, arguing errors in the trial process or legal rulings.

How Are Criminal Defense Lawyers Paid?

Criminal defense lawyers generally charge clients in one of three ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Payment structures include:

  • Flat fee: For straightforward cases (e.g., minor misdemeanors), some lawyers charge a one-time flat fee that covers all aspects of the defense.
  • Hourly rate: For more complex or ongoing cases, lawyers may charge by the hour, with rates varying based on the lawyer’s experience and geographic location.
  • Retainer fee: In cases where extensive work is expected, the client may pay a retainer fee upfront. The lawyer then bills against that retainer for their work on the case.

The cost of criminal defense services can vary greatly, so it’s important to discuss fees during your initial consultation.

How Much Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a criminal defense lawyer depends on several factors, including the severity of the charges, the complexity of the case, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost guidelines are:

  • Misdemeanor cases: For relatively minor offenses, such as a DUI or petty theft, a flat fee may range from $1,500 to $5,000.
  • Felony cases: More serious charges, such as assault or drug trafficking, can range from $10,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on the complexity and duration of the case.
  • Hourly rates: For cases billed by the hour, lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on their expertise and the case's location.
  • Additional expenses: You may also be responsible for other costs, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, or the cost of private investigators.

Be sure to clarify the lawyer’s fee structure and any potential additional costs during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer

Before hiring a criminal defense lawyer, you’ll want to ensure that they’re a good fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask:

  1. What is your experience with cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has a strong track record with the specific type of criminal charges you’re facing, whether it’s DUI, drug offenses, or violent crimes.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Ask how the lawyer charges for their services and whether you’ll be responsible for any additional costs.
  3. What are the potential outcomes of my case?
    A good lawyer should provide an honest assessment of your case and the likelihood of dismissal, a plea bargain, or conviction.
  4. How many cases have you taken to trial?
    While many criminal cases settle with a plea deal, it’s important to hire a lawyer with courtroom experience in case your case goes to trial.
  5. Who will handle my case?
    Ask if the lawyer will be personally involved or if other attorneys in the firm will handle most of the work.
  6. How do you communicate with your clients?
    Be clear on how often and through what channels you can expect updates on your case.

How to Check the Credibility of a Criminal Defense Lawyer

To verify the credibility of a criminal defense lawyer, take the following steps:

  • Check their standing with the state bar: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any past disciplinary actions or complaints.
  • Read online reviews and testimonials: Platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google can provide insights from previous clients about the lawyer’s communication, professionalism, and case outcomes.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should have past clients or other professionals who can speak to their competence and work ethic.
  • Review their case history: Look at the lawyer’s website or professional profile to see their experience with criminal cases, including high-profile or complex cases.
  • Look for trial experience: If your case might go to trial, make sure the lawyer has a strong history of courtroom advocacy and success.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your first consultation with a criminal defense lawyer, bring the following:

  • Details of your case: Be prepared to provide a detailed account of the charges against you, including any documents related to your arrest, police reports, and court dates.
  • Criminal history: If you have any prior criminal convictions, inform your lawyer so they can understand how that may affect your current case.
  • List of witnesses or evidence: If there are any potential witnesses or evidence that may support your defense, share this information during the consultation.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Prepare questions about their experience, legal strategy, and fees to ensure you understand how they will handle your case.
  • Bail or release documents: If you’ve been released on bail, bring any paperwork related to your release conditions or restrictions.

By being well-prepared, you can help your lawyer quickly assess your situation and begin building an effective defense strategy.
