Recovering Your Investment Losses is My Priority

Miami residents choose criminal defense services because Florida's criminal justice system moves quickly and consequences prove severe. Simms Law, P.C. provides comprehensive defense representation for clients facing charges throughout Miami-Dade County, from misdemeanors handled at the Richard E. Gerstein Justice Building to felonies prosecuted in circuit court. The firm handles drug offenses, DUI charges, theft crimes, assault and battery, domestic violence allegations, sex crimes, and white-collar offenses with equal attention to detail and aggressive advocacy.

Florida's criminal statutes differ significantly from other states, with mandatory minimum sentences, strict drug laws, and enhanced penalties for crimes involving firearms or prior convictions. Miami's courts process thousands of cases monthly, making it essential to have defense counsel who understand local prosecutors' approaches, know the judges' tendencies, and can identify the best path forward whether through negotiation or trial. Every case begins with detailed evidence review, witness interviews, and strategic planning tailored to the specific charges and circumstances.

Criminal defense in Miami requires understanding both state law and local enforcement patterns. Drug trafficking charges carry different defenses than possession cases. DUI arrests demand immediate DMV hearing requests to protect driving privileges. Theft offenses may qualify for pretrial diversion programs. Violent crime charges require careful examination of witness credibility and physical evidence. Each category of offense presents unique challenges and opportunities that experienced counsel can identify and exploit.

The defense process includes challenging the legality of traffic stops, questioning search warrant validity, examining police procedures for constitutional violations, and negotiating with state attorneys who handle overwhelming caseloads. Miami's diverse community means cases often involve multilingual witnesses, cultural factors, and complex factual scenarios that require sophisticated legal strategies. Unlike traditional providers who handle cases in volume, effective defense demands individualized attention from investigation through resolution, whether by dismissal, favorable plea agreement, or jury acquittal.
