The Owens Law Firm assists clients throughout Central Florida who have been arrested for or charged with any misdemeanor or felony, including the following crimes:

If you are involved in the criminal justice system you must protect your rights. Law enforcement officials have one goal—to arrest alleged criminals. Prosecutors have one goal—to convict alleged criminals. Simply put, the police and the prosecutors are not your allies and they are not looking to protect your rights. Contact a criminal defense attorney at The Owens Law Firm to discuss how we can help fight your criminal charges and protect your constitutional rights.

Our attorney has tremendous experience defending people against overzealous police actions and protecting our clients from unlawful traffic stops and searches. A traffic stop that resulted in a DUI arrest may be illegal if the stop was made without probable cause. A search and seizure that resulted in drug possession charges may be illegal if the search was made without a search warrant. Mr. Owen can review your case and will aggressively move to exclude any evidence which was illegally obtained.

Have You Been Arrested But Not Yet Charged?

In addition to defending clients who have already been charged with a crime, Mr. Owen is experienced at intervening on behalf of his clients before charges are filed following an arrest. If you have been arrested, but not yet charged, it is crucial that you immediately contact an experienced criminal defense attorney to see if it is possible to resolve the charges through pre-filing intervention. The time between an arrest and actual charges being filed can be anywhere from 10 to 30 days. At The Owens Law Firm in Tampa, Florida, our attorneys are well aware of the "window of opportunity" and attempt to intervene on behalf of our clients before formal charges are filed. We can also assist clients with expungements
