Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

Need defense immediately

My friend is in dire need of a good defense. He is being accused of capital sexual battery. There is OVERWHELMING evidence that he did not comitt this crime. He doesn't have much money, but his family does have about 3k or slightly more to put down as a down payment. His Mother and Grandmother are willing to make a payment plan. If you could just see the evidence in this case, you would understand how innocent he is. Doctors reports, character witnesses, FBI investigation and the list goes on. The state has offered him plea deals already. I believe that with proper representation, he will definitely be exonerated. Please e-mail me if you're willing to accept some sort of payment plan, or even just willing to take a look at the case to consider. From my understanding, they are trying to get this case over and done with as quickly as possible. Thank you so much for your time. I lok forward to hearing from any and everyone willing to consider this case.

Re: Need defense immediately

Capital sexual battery, as you know, generally carries a life sentence and, therefore, he'll need a lawyer with signficant experience in this area. Unfortunately, these lawyers aren't cheap. A minimum fee for a lawyer with the proper experience in this type of case is probably $50,000 and maybe more.

I'd be happy to discuss the evidence and the defenses with you, but finding a lawyer who has been to trial on these types of cases, as I have, will not be cheap, nor do you want a cheap lawyer to handle the case. Usually, the prosecution uses the same experts and the same types of evidence in these cases. I've seen this type of evidence times, and I've had success at winning in these cases. Most criminal defense lawyers--even skilled ones--can't or won't handle these cases. It requires special skill and experience. It's important to find a lawyer with that skill and experience.

Re: Need defense immediately

I agree with Mr. Rose that your friend's case is extremely serious and needs an experienced criminal trial attorney.

It's unclear where this case is being prosecuted. If its anywhere in the Tampa Bay area, I'd be more than happy to discuss the possibility of representing your friend.

Please have him or yourself contact my office by phone or email if you would like to discuss this further.

Good luck.

Aaron J. Slavin, Esq.
