Former State Prosecutor: Why Experience Counts

Why would you want a former state prosecutor representing you in a domestic violence charge? A state prosecutor knows how the system works - from both sides of the aisle. Working within the system on your behalf is one crucial aspect of the service provided by our Miami domestic violence lawyer. At the Law Office of Michael Mirer, P.A., our lead attorney, Michael Mirer, has served at over 100 trials. There is no substitute for real trial experience, as well as the knowledge about the best method to engage in negotiations with the prosecutor, which could be necessary to pursue a dismissal or reduction in charges.

Experience And Trial Ability Is The Key To Success

All lawyers are trained in the law. Not all of them have served at trial extensively, and may be more inclined to seek a plea deal or other option rather than go to court and present a case for the defense. Why? They may not have the confidence to present a persuasive case, or in crafting a strategically planned defense case. We are very experienced in trial law and are highly professional in our defense case development. Take advantage of what we can provide you if you are facing charges in a misdemeanor or felony domestic violence case. You are at risk of losing your freedom, as well as other extremely difficult repercussions. We know what to do. Call before your case proceeds any further.

The Criminal Justice System: A Tough Environment

The criminal justice system in Florida can impose some of the most extreme penalties for violent crimes in the nation, including domestic violence offenses. Those who are deemed to be "habitual offenders" - in a word, have a prior criminal record for any violent crime - will be facing mandatory minimum sentences or enhanced penalties. This makes the situation even more dangerous. If you are facing a charge of domestic violence, whether domestic battery, child abuse, or have an order of protection that restricts your access to your home and children, even if you are falsely accused, without highly skilled legal representation, you are at risk. You want the most qualified, experienced defense counsel fighting for you at every step of the process. What better way than to hire a former state prosecutor?

Michael Mirer: His Qualifications and Background

Our lead attorney, Michael Mirer, has the experience and background you want on your side. He formerly served as an Assistant State's Attorney for Miami-Dade County, and was advanced during his service to the Career Criminal Robbery Unit. He is an accomplished trial attorney and has prevailed in many difficult criminal cases. He has been called upon to lecture other attorneys in the art of cross-examination, and has recently been asked to join a panel of legal experts to offer legal opinions in criminal law treatises. When you need a true legal professional on your side, this is the firm to call.

Why It Matters

Experience really does matter in domestic violence charges. Without a highly skilled defense lawyer that is personally committed to fighting for your defense, things can go off track quickly. This includes the arraignment - what crime you are actually charged with, the bail hearing - how much you will have to pay for bail (if any) - and the actual criminal trial. What if there is enough evidence to call the charges into question. What if the person accusing you has an ulterior motive? All aspects of your case must be evaluated by a legal professional that knows how to work within the system.
