Orlando Criminal Defense Lawyers for Tourists
Being arrested in another state or country can be a very scary experience. Laws and courts are different from state to state, and they are markedly different in foreign countries. At the Orlando, Florida, law office of Williams & Wiseman, P.A., attorneys Travis Williams and Simon Wiseman have experience defending tourists from all over the United States and the world who are charged with crimes in Florida.
Many of our clients want to go home as soon as possible. Our first goal in any criminal defense case involving a tourist is to ensure you can leave Florida legally while your case is pending. We also try to make an inconvenient situation as convenient as possible, handling as much of the case as possible through telephone calls, mail and e-mail.
We defend tourists charged with all types of criminal offenses, including:
- DUI/DWI or drunk driving
- Theft or shoplifting
- Drug offenses
- Sex crimes, such as solicitation
- Assault and battery
If you are arrested for a crime while on vacation in Florida, you will need a Florida lawyer to defend you. Every state's laws and courts are different, and your lawyer must be licensed by the Florida bar to represent you in a Florida court. We often work with attorneys in other states to represent their clients' interests in Florida. Mr. Wiseman has the unique distinction of also being an English citizen and therefore can use his experiences growing up in England and Europe to help tourists from England, the United Kingdom, and Europe in any state or federal matter.
If you are convicted of a crime in Florida and given probation, you will be subject to sanctions such as community service and treatment programs. Attorneys Travis Williams and Simon Wiseman may be able to get the courts to allow you to complete the community service or treatment program in your home country.
