Bad Check Arrest Defense in Fort Lauderdale, Florida

In the State of Florida, a Bad Check charge is governed by Florida Statute 832. The charge may be a Misdemeanor or a Felony Offense if the amount of the check exceeds $150.00.

If a Misdemeanor charge is filed against you, you may not have to appear in court. Further, by hiring an experienced criminal offense attorney you may prevent the misdemeanor being officially filed by the State Attorney's Office. Even if the charge is filed against you, there are numerous options available to you to secure a dismissal or criminal conviction on your record.

These options include:

  1. Misdemeanor Diversion Program (MDP) or Pre-Trial Intervention (PTI)
  2. Plea to a withhold adjudication (no conviction)
  3. Filing Motions to Suppress and/or Dismiss
  4. Going to Trial, either by Judge or Jury.

Every case is different. Therefore, it is imperative that you speak with an experienced criminal attorney immediately. I have over 19 years of criminal defense experience, and I have represented 4,000 clients accused of various crimes.

If a Felony is filed against you, you will have numerous options available to you to secure a dismissal and/or prevent a conviction on your record.
