What qualifies as a felony in Florida?

In Florida, felonies are serious crimes categorized by degrees.

How soon should I hire an attorney after being charged with a felony?

You should hire an attorney immediately after being charged with a felony or even during investigation before formal charges. Early legal representation allows your attorney to protect your rights during questioning, begin gathering evidence while it's fresh, potentially negotiate with prosecutors before formal charging decisions, and start building your defense strategy. The Law Office of Brian R Toung, PA offers immediate assistance following an arrest and provides a free initial consultation to evaluate your case.

Can felony charges be reduced or dismissed?

Yes, felony charges can potentially be reduced to lesser charges or dismissed entirely depending on the circumstances. This might occur through negotiated plea agreements, participation in diversion programs, identification of procedural errors, challenges to evidence collection methods, or demonstrating insufficient evidence for conviction. As a Board-Certified Trial Attorney, Brian R Toung examines every aspect of your case for potential weaknesses in the prosecution's arguments and leverages over four decades of experience to pursue the best possible outcome for your situation.
