(DMT) use their 50 combined years of experience to provide their clients charged with violent crimes an aggressive and compelling defense.

Although, our defense team has represented clients charged with murder and manslaughter, the majority of cases for which we have provided representation include aggravated battery, aggravated assault, aggravated stalking, child neglect and child abuse.

The Serious Nature of Violent Crime Charges

Due to the severity of the charges prosecutors will assign only their best and most experienced lawyers to these types of cases. Unless a compelling defense is established by DMT, prosecutors will charge individuals with the most serious charges available to them and seek the maximum penalties under the law at the time of sentencing. Many charges, such as aggravated battery and aggravated child abuse carry prison sentences under the Florida Sentencing Guidelines. Aggravated assault with a firearm carries a 3 year minimum sentence. Battery on a law enforcement officer or resisting an officer with violence do not usually carry jail or prison sentences for first time offenders, but are none the less taken seriously because the victims work closely with the State Attorneys Offices in every South Florida jurisdiction.
