Appellate Law

Appellate practice involves different skills and strategic considerations than trial practice. On appeal, the focus shifts from developing and proving facts (through discovery, examining witnesses, and trial) to the legal issues that decide the case. Effective appellate advocacy thus demands a formulation of the issues that is focused on what is important to a panel of appellate judges deciding the case.

In formulating the issues on appeal, our attorneys conduct thorough legal research; analyze the legal issues in light of the rule-making and policy considerations that shape the development of law; and then present the facts and those issues and arguments selected for appeal concisely in a persuasive appellate brief.

White Collar Crime – Today, white collar crime generally encompasses a variety of nonviolent crimes usually committed in commercial situations for financial gain. Many white-collar crimes are especially difficult to prosecute because the perpetrators use sophisticated means to conceal their activities through a series of complex transactions. Both state and federal legislation enumerate the activities that constitute white-collar criminal offenses. Our defense attorneys aid their clients through the government investigation, compliance issues, and possible trial.

Embezzlement

Violent crime is more complicated than many people think. The best way to try       to understand is to think about it as being its own category, different than other crimes. One way we describe it, is to follow the FBI’s definition, which considers violent crime to be: (1) Murder and Manslaughter, (2) Forcible Rape, (3) Robbery, and (4) Aggravated Assault.

Aggravated Assault and Batteries

Drug Offenses

Drug crimes and narcotic offenses can exist at both the state and federal level. A violation of either U.S. federal drug/narcotic laws or state drug/narcotic laws can lead to a charge and possible conviction. A successful conviction can carry severe penalties including jail time and payment of heavy fines. Moreover, Florida imposes certain minimum mandatory sentences for drug related offenses ranging from 3 year sentences up to life sentences for repeat offenders. Whether you have been charged with simple possession of marijuana or have been involved in the trafficking of narcotics, our Firm can help protect your rights and assist in getting you the best possible outcome.

Grow Houses

Reverse Stings

DUI cases are unique as they usually flow on two separate tracks (administrative and criminal). Our attorneys will represent you with the Florida Department of Motor Vehicles in any administrative procedures, while fighting on your behalf against the State during all criminal proceedings. Those arrested for DUI are often concerned about the future consequences of having such a charge on their record. In some cases, DUIs can be sealed or expunged. While different in theory, sealing or expunging a DUI both have the same effect of removing any trace of the charge from the court record. In the event your case closes with a DUI conviction, the case cannot be sealed or expunged. It is important to speak immediately with a lawyer at Quintero Broche, P.A. to get the best possible results in your case

Forfeitures

• Forfeitures

Forfeitures –The U.S. Government and the State of Florida are permitted to seize and forfeit, either through criminal or civil proceedings, property that was used to facilitate crime and property that was obtained with the proceeds of crime. Any property (including interest in property) may be forfeited, including but not limited to bank accounts, homes, boats, cars, leases, and a lender’s security interest.

Having your property seized by the Government due to a criminal or civil proceeding is a challenging life event one can face. However, it is important to know that the legal process does not end with your property being forfeited by the Government. The Fourth Amendment grants protections against unreasonable searches and seizures. This can be applied in forfeiture cases involving seizures and may be raised as a defense in forfeiture proceedings where the defendant claims the property sought to be forfeited was seized from him/her pursuant to an unlawful search and or seizure. At Quintero Broche, our attorneys have been successfully handling all types of forfeiture cases for over thirty years.
