Criminal Defense and DUI Attorney in Valparaiso
Know Your Options When Arrested in Valparaiso, Florida
What most folks want to know after they’ve been arrested is….
What do I need to do as my court date nears?
A lot of people have never been in this circumstance and don’t know where to begin. If that describes your situation, here’s a quick rundown of what is going to happen.
You’re eventually going to end up in front of judge and you have two options to consider for that date.
- Count on a Public Defender
- Engage a Criminal Defense Attorney at Law
Typically, a Public Defender is the sole option for people arrested in Valparaiso because people are short on cash. And I understand that.
But that might not be the best option because public defenders are overworked, they lack the time to prepare your case the way it should be, and many times will just take the best deal the prosecutor has to offer.
The other option, hiring a pro… is the best choice.
My name is Tim Flaherty – and if you or someone in your family is going to be facing a judge for a DUI or other Criminal Offense and are considering hiring a criminal defense lawyer to represent you, you should give me a call. And here’s why.
- I have over a decade of experience helping those that have been arrested in the Valparaiso area and along the Florida Panhandle – and I’m very good at what I do.
- When you call, we’ll talk about your situation (or a family member’s problem) and walk through what you’re facing. I will offer some advice and answer your questions, but I will not pressure you to do anything.
- And if you can see the difference between what a public defender can do and what a pro can do, we can discuss how I can help.
Here’s one thing to keep in mind – don’t just assume that because I have a private criminal defense practice that I’m expensive. I go out of my way to make my services as affordable as possible, so anyone can get professional help.
