Understanding Violent & Gun Crime Charges

Have you or someone you care about been charged with a violent or gun crime in St Lucie, Indian River, Martin, or Okeechobee Counties? Federal and State Courts in Florida have some of the strictest violent crime and gun crime laws in the world. There are minimum mandatory sentences in many instances and they can be lengthy.

With respect to firearms, Florida is famous for it's 10/20/life laws and the federal system is equally notorious for it's section 924(c) laws. Both involve the allegation of using a firearm during the commission of a crime. The legislature has taken the sentencing discretion out of the hands of the judges in a large portion of these cases, leaving a lot of the power with the government. This is the type of case best handled by a criminal lawyer.

The laws with respect to violent gun crimes in St Lucie, Indian River, Martin, or Okeechobee Counties can come down to very subtle and distinct facts with respect to the location of the events, the state of mind of the accused, actions consistent with self-defense, and the alleged victim's propensity or reputation for violence. These are just a few of the creative and viable defenses to violent criminal accusations that defense attorney Brian Mallonee brainstorms while preparing and implementing a defense strategy.
