Choosing an attorney or law firm to represent you in a criminal matter is not easy, considering the number of lawyers available and the stakes that are riding on your decision. In addition to this, there is the very real need to make a choice quickly. At Charles M. Harris P.A., I provide:

· More than 30 years of experience -
I am a former Assistant State Attorney and federal criminal law defender who has handled thousands of criminal cases ranging from traffic violations and DUI to major drugs importation and white collar crimes. My clients have included presidents and CEOs of security companies, "Latin Kings" gang members, major construction bosses, and native Colombians charged with importing tons of cocaine. In short, I am able to handle a wide range of criminal charges effectively, regardless of size or complexity.

· A dedicated and thorough approach -
Criminal defense is the only type of work that I do. Not family law. Not real estate. Not business. Only criminal law. Because of my level of experience with the criminal justice system in this area, I have come to believe in the value of being thorough in every facet of my work, from arrest and investigation to trial preparation and the appellate process. I am committed to doing whatever I can to achieve the best possible outcomes for my clients. Due to the success I have had for my clients, the demand for my services has increased to the point where I have had to add a very talented associate lawyer to our firm.

· Open lines of communication -
I understand the very real need that my clients have to understand the charges against them, to know what to expect in court, and to have a clear grasp of the legal options that are available to them at all times. Both I and my associate work hard to be accessible, informative, and responsive to the needs of our clients and to keep the lines of communication between us as open as possible.
