DUI: A charge of drunk driving should never be taken lightly. The potential consequences are significant. Our lawyers do everything possible to protect your rights, limit your penalties and preserve your freedom to drive.
Driving with a Suspended License: Most people think that driving while their license is suspended is a relatively minor offense. It is not - this can even be a felony in some instances. The Busciglio & Sheridan Law Group will work hard to restore your license and your ability to drive while defending you against the criminal charges.
Suspended License / Habitual Traffic Offender: If designated as an habitual traffic offender (HTO), you will lose your license for 5 years, the first year of which you will not be allowed to drive at all. Our lawyers help you fight the HTO designation and apply for a restricted license after the first year of your suspension.
Traffic Tickets: Traffic tickets can affect your insurance rates. Moreover, if you fail to resolve them, you may have your license suspended. You should never disregard a speeding ticket.
Domestic Violence: Domestic violence is an area of particular focus for our attorneys. Both attorneys served in the domestic violence unit of the Florida State Attorney's office. We truly understand the process of defending these difficult and sensitive cases.
Restraining Orders / Injunctions for Protection: A restraining order or injunction for protection is a serious matter than can cause substantial disruption to a person's life, as well as serious legal consequences if they violate the order. Our attorneys counsel and represent you with any matter related to a restrain order or injunction for protection.
Sex Crimes: Someone convicted of certain sex crimes may be required to register as a sex offender. It is important to have a vigorous defense if you are facing a sex crimes charge - a conviction could follow you for the rest of your life.
Drug Charges: If you are convicted of certain state or federal drug charges, you may be facing significant prison time and hefty fines, as well as the social stigma of being a drug user or dealer. You could also face a driver's license suspension upon conviction for certain drug charges. It is important to have the advocacy of an experienced criminal defense lawyer to examine your case and fight against your charges.
Theft Crimes: Theft charges encompass everything from shoplifting to major fraud and embezzlement. Our law firm handles any type of theft charge.
Firearms Charges: A firearms violations charge can be a violation of the Florida prohibition against carrying a concealed weapon, a felon in possession of a firearm or the use or display of a firearm or weapon.
Juvenile Criminal Defense: The juvenile criminal court system is geared towards rehabilitation and intervention. However, in cases involving serious crimes and older juveniles, prosecutors are seeking to try them as adults. Our attorneys can fight to keep your teen from being charged as an adult while helping them receive a second chance to rectify the mistakes they made.
Probation Violations: If arrested for violating the terms of your probation, you could be sent to prison and face additional charges and penalties. Our attorneys help you notify your probation officer and represent you in court to try and minimize the consequences of a probation violation.
Sealing & Expunging Records: The record of your criminal conviction can haunt you forever. Find out about the different ways that certain types of criminal records can be expunged or sealed from public view.
