Florida’s strict drug laws necessitate a robust defense to protect against harsh penalties.
Key Aspects of Drug Offenses:
- Possession: Holding small amounts typically for personal use.
- Sale and Distribution: Involving the exchange of drugs for profit.
- Trafficking: Possession of large quantities that exceed statutory weight limits.
- Manufacturing:
Production or cultivation of illegal substances.
How We Help
Case Evaluation and Strategy Development
We start with a thorough evaluation of your case, examining the circumstances of your arrest, the evidence collected, and any procedural errors that could benefit your defense. Our strategic approach focuses on reducing or dismissing charges based on weaknesses in the prosecution’s case or rights violations.
Negotiating Plea Deals
Our attorneys are skilled negotiators who can often secure plea deals that reduce penalties or alter charges. We work tirelessly to negotiate terms that favor rehabilitation and recovery rather than punitive measures, especially for first-time offenders or those with minimal involvement.
Trial Representation
If your case goes to trial, Hamil Scott Law Firm provides assertive and strategic defense in the courtroom. We challenge the prosecution's evidence, cross-examine witnesses, and present a compelling case to protect your freedom. Our goal is always to achieve the best possible outcome, whether that's a not guilty verdict, reduced charges, or minimized penalties.
Post-Conviction Assistance
For clients who face conviction, we offer post-conviction support, including help with appeals, sentence reductions, and potential expungement. Our commitment to our clients extends beyond the trial to ensure that their rights are upheld throughout their legal journey.
