We help you find treatment when you need it.
Our criminal defense attorneys also know that there's more to defending a criminal charge than simply attending to the legal issues, and we believe in rehabilitation over punishment. That's why we are also experienced in helping our criminal defense clients find treatment for drug or alcohol addiction along with mental health issues instead of jail. We are familiar with dozens of alcohol and drug treatment and rehab facilities throughout Pinellas and Hillsborough Counties, and we help coordinate treatment for alcohol, drug, or other dependence/addiction as well as mental health, co-occurring, dual diagnosis, and other treatment/counseling. Whenever it is possible or appropriate, we ask the court to consider treatment over incarceration.
