Orlando Federal Crime Lawyer
Florida Federal Defense
In the United States, all citizens are expected to adhere to federal laws – implemented by the U.S. government – as well as the state-imposed laws of whatever state they are in. A crime can either fall under state or federal jurisdiction. Generally, federal laws carry harsher penalties – therefore, federal crimes are often more serious.
If you are a Floridian facing federal criminal charges, the good news is that you are innocent until proven guilty. Just because you have been charged with a crime does not necessarily mean you will be convicted. At the Law Offices of Jose E. Lopez, P.A., our Orlando federal crime lawyer fights tirelessly to protect the rights of the criminally accused. Obtaining positive results is our highest priority. You can count on our federal crime attorney in Orlando if you are facing federal charges in Florida.
