What Can Happen with a Criminal Offense?

Facing a criminal charge can be overwhelming and scary. Worrying about how it might affect your job, family, and future is natural.

Here’s a quick look at what to expect and how to protect yourself.

Facing Immediate Consequences

An arrest can lead to a booking. You may need to post bail or meet release conditions. This alone can feel like your life is spinning out of control.

Dealing with the Legal Process

You’ll attend an arraignment to hear the charges and enter a plea. After that, your attorney can file motions to challenge the evidence or even get the case dismissed. Whether your case goes to trial or ends in a plea deal, having the right legal help makes all the difference.

Determining Potential Resolutions

The best-case scenario? The charges are dropped, or you’re found not guilty. If convicted, you could face fines, probation, or even jail time, depending on the charges.

Struggling with Long-Term Impacts

A conviction does not just go away. It can stay on your record, making getting a job, renting a home, or even traveling harder. You might lose certain rights, like voting or owning a firearm. For non-citizens, it could affect your immigration status.

Why Legal Representation Matters

Our skilled attorney will stand by your side, fighting for the best outcome. Whether that’s reduced charges, lighter penalties, or a complete dismissal, we will help you take back control of your future.

You don’t have to face this alone. Titan Law is ready to defend you.

Your Defense Against DUI Charges

Few things are more stressful than being charged with driving under the influence (DUI).

Florida has some of the strictest DUI laws in the country, and the penalties can change your life.

But the good news is that a DUI charge doesn’t mean your life is over. With an experienced legal team in your corner, you can fight back. Some of the cases we have handled include:

• Driving under the influence: A single mistake should not define your future. If you’ve been charged with a DUI, we will thoroughly examine your case to identify any errors made by law enforcement and build a solid defense.
• Tourist DUIs: Sarasota is a popular tourist destination, but a vacation can quickly become a nightmare if you are arrested for a DUI. We help out-of-state clients navigate Florida’s legal system, so you don’t have to handle this from hundreds of miles away.
• DUI manslaughter: Facing DUI manslaughter charges is a serious legal battle. These cases require a compassionate but aggressive approach. Our attorneys will fight for your defense.
• Felony DUIs: When a DUI involves injury, property damage, or prior offenses, the stakes are even higher. Felony DUIs carry heavier penalties. With our firm’s extensive experience, you can rest assured we will fight to minimize the impact on your life.
• Underage DUIs: As a parent, you want to protect your child’s future. Florida’s zero-tolerance policy for underage drivers can result in stringent penalties. We are here to help. We will explore every avenue to protect your child from the harshest consequences.
• Commercial DUIs: A DUI charge can be devastating for commercial drivers who rely on their licenses for their livelihood. We understand the importance of defending your case and your career.
• Drug-related DUIs: DUIs are not limited to alcohol. If you’ve been accused of driving under the influence of drugs, whether prescription, over-the-counter, or illegal, our team has the skills to challenge these charges.
• Repeat DUIs: Multiple DUI convictions can lead to more substantial penalties, including mandatory jail time and longer license suspensions. We will work to craft a strong defense and help you avoid the most severe consequences.
• Boating under the influence (BUI): Enjoying Sarasota’s waterways is one of the perks of living or vacationing here. However, a BUI charge can come with serious consequences. Our lawyers understand Florida’s BUI laws and will craft a defense strategy for your situation.

Protecting Your Driving Record

Traffic violations may seem minor, but they lead to higher insurance rates, points on your license, and even suspension.

At Titan Law, we take these cases seriously and will fight to protect your driving record.

• Speeding tickets: Just because you were cited does not mean you’re guilty. We will review your ticket for errors and challenge it in court if necessary.
• Reckless driving: A reckless driving charge can lead to fines, license suspension, and sometimes jail time. We can work to reduce or dismiss the charges.
• Driving with a suspended license: If you have been caught driving with a suspended license, we will address the issue and work toward reinstating your driving privileges.

Assault and Battery Defense

A charge of assault or battery can have a lasting impact on your personal and professional life. Whether the incident was a misunderstanding, an act of self-defense, or something else, we can uncover the truth and fight for your side of the story.
