Florida's Drug Trafficking Trap
No other stretch of coastline in the country has ever experienced a greater influx of illegal narcotics than Florida's east coast from Miami to Jacksonville during the 1980's. And even though much greater volumes of cannabis, cocaine, and heroin currently find their way into the U.S. via the Mexican border, the State of Florida still has some of the most draconian drug trafficking laws in the country.

Why Do I Need a Criminal Defense Attorney?
Duval County Criminal And Traffic Attorney Maria Rogers, P.A. On Felony And Misdemeanor Offenses
One of the peculiar things about the criminal laws of Florida is that you don't always have to be taken into custody to be legally arrested. As a criminal defense attorney located in Jacksonville, I meet with a number of clients who believe that their charges are "no big deal" because the Jacksonville or Clay County sheriff's office didn't take them down to the station to book them. Sometimes, they weren't even handcuffed by the responding police officers.

Florida's legislature has taken a strong stance on domestic crimes, and judges in areas like Duval, Clay, Baker, Flagler, and St. Johns Counties have backed law enforcement officers even on questionable arrests where there is very little probable cause. Florida law enforcement officers are encouraged to make arrests on incidents of alleged domestic violence—even in cases where the victim declines prosecution.

Criminal Mischief in FL
Veteran Jacksonville Criminal Defense Attorney Maria Rogers, P.A. Discusses Criminal Mischief
As a criminal defense attorney serving clients in Duval, Clay, Flagler, and Baker Counties, I've represented a number of juveniles and young adults who have been charged with criminal mischief. Criminal mischief—or vandalism as it is often referred—occurs when a person "willfully and maliciously injures or damages by any means any real or personal property belonging to another." Depending on factors such as the amount of damage, the type of property involved, or the location, criminal mischief can be charged as a misdemeanor or felony in the state of Florida. I have successfully defended clients who have been charged with criminal mischief in greater Jacksonville and other areas of northeast Florida.

Expungement and Sealing of Records
Jacksonville Criminal Law Attorney Maria Rogers, P.A. On Sealing And Expunging Criminal Records
Very few people want to be judged for their entire life based on a one-time mistake that they made when they were a teenager or young adult. As a criminal law attorney serving clients in Jacksonville, Saint Augustine, and the rest of northeastern Florida, I've helped clients beat criminal charges in the Duval, Clay, Baker, Flagler, and Saint Johns criminal court systems. But even if the state attorney drops the case, or you receive an acquittal at trial or withhold of adjudication, your arrest and criminal record is still available to the public and potential employers. A single misdemeanor or felony arrest appearing in a background check can cost you an employment opportunity and be a continuous source of embarrassment. The good news is that in many cases a criminal arrest record can be sealed or expunged so that the public is not able to access it and learn the details of your arrest.
