Representing Defendants Facing Criminal Charges in Miami
Miami is one of the most populous cities in the United States, with an estimated 2007 population of more than 420,000 residents. As is the case with most highly populated urban areas, crime levels in the area are generally higher than the national average. With increased crime rates, law enforcement and prosecuting attorneys employ increasingly aggressive tactics in investigating and prosecuting criminal defendants. If convicted, such criminal charges have long-standing and lasting effects that can follow you through your entire life. They will shadow you whether it is in your dealings with housing, employment, education or financing.
When faced by such a high stakes situation, there is no room to give yourself anything less than the best. You need a knowledgeable heavyweight to look after you and your future. If you or a loved one has been contacted by the Miami Police Department or by a Federal agency regarding an investigation or criminal offense of some kind, it is important that you understand your rights and your options in challenging any criminal charges you may potentially face.
Immediate, aggressive legal counsel may be your only opportunity of avoiding a criminal conviction and serious penalties. Miami criminal defense attorney Michael Mirer is standing by to use his knowledge, experience, and resources to defend your Constitutional rights and help you reach a positive case outcome.
Areas of Practice: Criminal Defense
Our firm handles virtually any type of criminal case in the Miami area, including:
As you can see by the list of practice areas to the left, we handle virtually every type of criminal offense that a person may be accused of, in State, Federal or Juvenile Court. Although this covers a broad range of crimes and some may seem relatively minor with lesser penalties that may be imposed upon a conviction, it is important to note that any crime may have a serious impact on a defendant's life. That is why our law firm is completely committed to only the highest quality criminal defense counsel to clients throughout Miami. When you work with a lawyer at our offices, we will utilize all of our knowledge and resources in the fight to protect your Constitutional rights and your interests to the fullest extent of the law.
After all, a criminal conviction in Florida may mean that you will face various penalties: driver's license suspension, a term in county jail, imprisonment in state prison, heavy fines, court fees, probation, community service, house arrest, mandatory counseling or rehabilitation, sex offender registration, the loss of professional licenses, the loss of the right to own a firearm, and more. And these are just the penalties that may be imposed upon a conviction. Having a criminal record is a whole different matter and may affect your employment, educational, financing and housing opportunities along with your reputation and career.
It is imperative that you contact a skilled Miami criminal defense as soon as possible. From the very beginning there are steps that can be taken towards getting you the best advantage in your pursuit of a successful outcome. After first facing the charges, it is important that you both remember and take advantage of your right to remain silent and your right to retain an attorney. By remaining silent, you are avoiding any possible chance of accidently incriminating yourself or submitting to an unwarranted search. At this point, it's in your best interest to get an experienced lawyer to stand at your side and fight for your rights.
When you are being protected by our thorough knowledge of the law and dedication to the success of your case, you can rest assured that everything possible to be done to give you an advantageous playing field is being pursued. When in the midst of this trying, emotional time, having an experienced criminal defense attorney there to help guide you is an undeniable benefit to you both legally and emotionally.

We are intimately involved with the law, and we can help usher you through the entire process step by step. There is no need for you to try and fight your way through this on your own.
