Even if you do not think that the charges against you are that serious or you believe that you will prevail simply because you’re innocent, bear in mind that a conviction could carry severe penalties that will permanently alter your life.

Sentencing guidelines in Florida are based on a statutory point system that takes into account the severity of the offense, the severity of injuries to the victim, previous convictions, whether or not a firearm was used in the commission of the crime, whether the accused was on probation at the time, whether the crime was gang-related, did the crime appear to be a hate crime? All of these questions will come into play, so your Broward County criminal defense attorney must be well-versed in Florida sentencing guidelines and prepared to secure the best outcome possible for you.

A sampling of penalties for criminal convictions in Florida include:

  • Life imprisonment for second-degree murder
  • Up to 30 years for armed robbery or attempted murder
  • Up to 15 years for aggravated assault, cocaine possession with intent to deliver, or possession of a weapon by a convicted felon
  • Up to five years for grand theft, possession of heroin, and aggravated stalking
  • Up to one year for possession of marijuana, trespass, DUI, or domestic battery

The Law Firm of Leader & Leader is committed to providing you with the aggressive representation and the legal counsel you’ll need if you want the best outcome possible. Your Ft.
