Criminal Defense and Family Law Overview
Whether you are calling for a divorce, criminal defense, or other issue, making the choice to hire the right attorney is a difficult decision. I know that decision-making process is not easy, and I know how important it is to have a lawyer who cares for your case, and also one who cares for you.
At the Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Law Office of Kristina Duhaney, I know how to handle your criminal defense and family law needs, and my representation comes from the heart.
Criminal Defense
I believe that everyone accused of a crime — whether they are guilty or not — has the right to the best representation possible. I provide criminal defense in a wide variety of areas including:
- DUI / traffic violations: Thorough investigation and review of your case will help me negotiate with the prosecutor or defend your case at trial.
- Federal cases: My admission to the federal bar allows me to fight to defend you against federal criminal charges.
- Misdemeanors and felonies: My experience helps me represent you in small misdemeanor matters as well as more serious felonies and violent crimes.
- Juvenile law: I can work to get your child into a diversion program to avoid a lasting arrest record.
- Domestic violence and restraining orders: I can represent you if you need a restraining order or if you need to defend against one, and I can fight against domestic violence charges, whether you are the accused or the victim wanting to waive prosecution.
- Probation: I know how to fight against substantive and technical probation violations charges, and I work hard to get the case resolved at the first hearing.
- Seal and expunge: If I can get your case dismissed, for example through a diversion program, I can fight to have your record expunged.
- State and federal appeals: I can research your case to see if you have grounds for post-conviction appellate relief.
Family Law
I can handle your divorce, child custody and support, and visitation issues. I approach family law cases with compassion and always have you and your children's best interests in mind.
