Criminal Defense FAQ

When faced with any legal matter, let alone an arrest or criminal charges, you most likely have a lot of questions. We want to bring some clarity in this challenging time, and that starts with answers to your most common questions about your options and legal rights. 

  • How much does a defense attorney cost?
    Legal fees depend on the complexity of your case, the charges involved, and the amount of work required. We offer free consultations to discuss your case and provide transparent information about costs upfront, so you can make an informed decision about your defense.
  • What are the possible outcomes of my case?
    Outcomes vary based on the charges and circumstances, but they can include case dismissal, reduced charges, plea agreements with lighter penalties, acquittal at trial, or alternative sentencing like probation or diversion programs. Our goal is always to achieve the best possible result.
  • How can an attorney help my case?
    An experienced attorney knows how to challenge evidence, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's case, negotiate with prosecutors, and protect your constitutional rights. We investigate every angle, from procedural errors to witness credibility, to build the strongest possible defense.
  • What should I do after an arrest?
    Stay calm, exercise your right to remain silent, and ask for an attorney immediately. Do not answer questions or make statements to law enforcement without your lawyer present. Anything you say can be used against you, even if you think it helps your case.

  • “The BEST attorney in Hillsborough County!”

  • “I couldn't be happier with Jeff Paulk!”
    “I couldn't be happier with this law firm. I had Jeff Paulk and he was great. Got my bond reduced so I could be home with my family. I have more to go, but have great confidence in them. Compassionate and a real go getter!”
