Why Should You Get Help From an Attorney?


Hiring an experienced attorney is crucial when facing a charge in Florida. Judges are bound by strict laws and cannot alter the administrative suspension or revocation periods mandated by statute. Additionally, Florida laws may prohibit withholding adjudication or reducing charges in some cases. Without skilled legal representation, you risk facing harsh consequences, including a permanent criminal record.

Searching for a criminal defense attorney can be a daunting task, especially when you’re dealing with the stress and uncertainty that accompanies legal troubles. One reliable way to ensure that you’re hiring a qualified and experienced lawyer is to look for those who are Board Certified in Criminal Trial Law. But what does that mean, and why should it matter to you? Let’s break it down.

Understanding Criminal Trial Law Certification

Board certification in criminal trial law is an acknowledgment given to attorneys who have demonstrated special knowledge, skills, and proficiency in criminal law. These lawyers not only meet the stringent qualifications set by the Florida Bar but also possess the character, ethics, and reputation for professionalism that make them stand out.

Why Choose a Board Certified Lawyer?

Hiring a board certified criminal trial lawyer means you’re getting someone who:

  • Has dedicated a significant portion of their practice to criminal law, ensuring they have the experience and focus needed for your case.
  • Has been peer-reviewed, which means their reputation among other lawyers and judges is solid.
  • Has undergone rigorous continuing legal education in criminal law.
  • Has passed a comprehensive written examination.

Who Can Become Board Certified?

Not just any lawyer can achieve board certification. The requirements are extensive and designed to ensure only the best attorneys earn this distinction. To become board certified in criminal trial law, a lawyer must:

  • Have practiced law for at least five years.
  • Have been significantly involved in criminal trial law, dedicating at least 30% of their practice to this specialty in the three years before applying.
  • Have handled at least 25 contested criminal cases, including 20 jury trials with 15 involving felonies, and served as lead counsel in 10 of those trials.
  • Have completed 45 hours of approved continuing legal education in criminal trial law within the three years before applying.
  • Have received positive peer reviews.
  • Pass a written examination.

The Certification Process

New Applicants

If you’re a lawyer aiming to become board certified, the process starts with ensuring you meet all the eligibility requirements. Applications are accepted from September 1 to October 31 each year. If you meet the criteria and pass the exam, you’ll be officially certified the following August.

Reapplicants

For those who are eligible to retake the exam from a previous application, a shorter application process is available.

Recertification

Certification isn’t a one-time achievement. It must be renewed every five years to ensure that certified lawyers maintain their high standards. All recertification applications must be submitted by July 31 at the end of the five-year period. In special circumstances, a three-month extension may be granted.

Benefits of Hiring a Board Certified Lawyer

Choosing a board certified lawyer offers several benefits:

  • Reliability: Certification is an objective measure of a lawyer’s qualifications.
  • Network: Board certified lawyers are part of a network of specialists who often refer clients to each other, ensuring you get the best representation.
  • Reputation: Certification can enhance the stature of a lawyer’s firm.
  • Cost Savings: Board certified lawyers may enjoy lower malpractice insurance rates, which can translate to cost savings for you.

When you hire a board certified criminal trial lawyer, you’re choosing someone with proven expertise and a commitment to maintaining the highest standards in their practice. This can give you confidence and peace of mind during a challenging time.

In Summary

Board certification in criminal trial law is a mark of excellence and professionalism. When you see this certification, you can trust that the lawyer has the experience, knowledge, and reputation needed to handle your case effectively. Whether you’re facing serious charges or need expert legal guidance, a board certified criminal trial lawyer can provide the strong defense you need.

Don’t leave your defense to chance. Choose a lawyer who’s not only qualified but has gone above and beyond to demonstrate their dedication to criminal law. Your future may depend on it.
