OUR FIRM

Knowledgeable Attorney Advocating for People Facing Prosecution in Bradenton

Although a prosecutor has the burden of proof in any criminal case, this does
not mean that you should sit back and wait for them to try to prove the case. It
is critical to retain an experienced criminal defense attorney who can examine
the evidence and raise any procedural or substantive defenses that may be
available. At Hanlon Law, our founder and principal, Bradenton criminal lawyer
Will Hanlon, has more than two decades of experience in criminal courtrooms in
Florida. We represent people accused of drug crimes, sex crimes, violent crimes,
domestic violence, theft crimes, white collar crimes, child abuse, and college
campus crimes. We also represent people against whom injunctions are sought for
domestic violence, stalking, and dating violence.

Drug Crimes

The possession, sale, manufacturing, and importation of many different
controlled substances are prohibited in Florida. Controlled substances include
cocaine, meth, morphine, and heroin, among other examples. Although simple
possession of a small amount of marijuana may be charged as a misdemeanor,
charges involving any other controlled substance are likely to be felony
charges. For example, if you are caught possessing methamphetamine, you may face
a maximum of five years in prison and a $5,000 fine. If you are caught with the
statutory threshold amount of a particular controlled substance, you will face
drug trafficking charges. A conviction for drug trafficking comes with a
mandatory minimum sentence.

Sex Crimes

Sex crimes include statutory rape, lewd and lascivious crimes, sexual battery
(rape), Internet sex crimes, child pornography, and prostitution. What must be
proven to secure a conviction depends on the particular sex crime charged. For
example, to prove sexual battery, the prosecutor needs to show beyond a
reasonable doubt that you had nonconsensual vaginal, oral, or anal contact with
another person using a sex organ or an object. Sex crimes charged as felonies
that are successfully proven by a prosecutor may result in a defendant needing
to register as a sex offender for the rest of their life.

Violent Crimes

Violent crimes include rape, aggravated assault, manslaughter, murder, and gun
crimes in Florida. Sometimes there is a public outcry after a violent crime, and
a prosecutor rushes to bring a charge. It is crucial to retain a criminal
attorney in the Bradenton area to protect your rights, since convictions for
violent crimes frequently come with severe penalties, such as significant prison
time and fines. There may be strong defenses available, including self-defense,
defense of others, or Stand Your Ground.

Domestic Violence

In Florida, domestic violence can include assault, aggravated assault, battery,
aggravated battery, sexual battery, sexual assault, false imprisonment,
kidnapping, stalking, aggravated stalking, or any other crime that results in
the physical injury or death of a family or household member by another family
or household member. Family or household members include husbands, wives,
ex-spouses, blood relatives, relatives by marriage, people living together as a
family, people who lived that way in the past, and people who co-parent a child.
Other than people who share a child, a family or household member can be charged
with domestic violence only when they currently or previously lived together
with the victim in a single dwelling unit.

Theft Crimes

There are many forms of theft, including car theft, burglary, money laundering,
embezzlement, shoplifting, and forgery. The value of the stolen property or
funds will determine whether a theft crime is charged as petit theft or grand
theft. There are degrees of petit theft and grand theft that will determine the
kinds of penalties that you may face for a conviction. For example, if the
property is worth more than $100,000, you can be charged with grand theft in the
first degree, which is punished by a maximum of 30 years in prison and a $10,000
fine. A Bradenton criminal attorney can help you seek to avert these potentially
harsh penalties.

White Collar Crimes

White collar crimes are usually motivated by greed rather than anger. There are
special enhanced sanctions for nonviolent swindles under certain circumstances.
An aggravated white collar crime involves engaging in a minimum of two white
collar crimes that have the same or similar intents, victims, methods of
commission, or accomplices, or that are otherwise linked through distinguishing
characteristics rather than isolated incidents. If you commit an aggravated
white collar crime and in doing so victimize 10 or more elderly people or 20 or
more people, or if you try to obtain or obtain at least $50,000 from the State
of Florida, you can be charged with a first-degree felony and also be required
to pay a fine of $500,000 under the White Collar Crime Protection Act.

Injunctions

There are several types of injunctions that victims of violence or stalking may
be able to obtain. Even though an injunction is sought through a civil
proceeding, you can be charged with a crime for failing to obey an injunction.
Since it may open the door to criminal charges, it is important to hire an
experienced attorney to fight the imposition of an injunction.

Child Abuse

Child abuse can involve any serious mistreatment of a child, including neglect,
physical abuse, sexual abuse, or emotional abuse. A prosecutor will need to
prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you intentionally mentally or physically
injured a child, you committed an intentional act that could be reasonably
expected to cause a physical or mental injury to the child, or you actively
encouraged somebody else, thereby causing physical or mental injuries to a
child.

College Campus Crimes

Often, college students do not have maturity or good judgment, even when they
are technically no longer minors. Accusations of sexual assault, drug crimes,
DUI, underage drinking, robbery, and shoplifting are all common on college
campuses. Unfortunately, a single charge can ruin a promising career. It is
crucial to retain an experienced criminal defense attorney. When possible, you
should consult an attorney even if all that has happened is that campus
officials are investigating the accusation.

Client Reviews
★★★★★
As a practicing attorney, I was shocked to hear that a family member of mine was
alleged to have committed a sex crime. Knowing full well the consequences this
type of allegation can have on anyone and their future, I immediately reached
out to William Hanlon for help. I had every confidence that Mr. Hanlon had the
knowledge, expertise, and experience to handle this problem. Approximately 4
weeks from an initial conference with Mr. Hanlon, we received a call with the
news that a letter of release was being issued and the case was being dropped.
Now my family member can finally exhale, take a deep breath, and go on with his
life. Thank you, William! Jerry
★★★★★
Was on the ball. Remembered names, events, places, situations. Never need to re
explain the situation. Keeps in touch through out the entire experience and
keeps you feeling safe, comforted and protected. Fights hard. Worth every single
penny. Would never settle for anything less than Will. Carrie
★★★★★
I was facing a charge that if convicted would carry two years in prison
minimally. Not only was he empathetic and listening to what I had to say but he
arranged with the prosecutor for my charges not to be filed under terms of a pre
trial investigation. Would highly recommend. Alec
★★★★★
I am very happy for what he did for me. Always there when I needed him.
Explained everything well. He Fights for his clients. He got me what I needed.
Hes an excellent lawyer. Mutaz
★★★★★
Mr. Hanlon did what no other lawyer could do. Not only did he turn my criminal
history into a thing of the past so I could move on, he was a loyal associate.
No matter how bad the situation is, he has miraculously cleared me on every
charge since he became my lawyer 5 years ago. I have the best lawyer that the
legal system has to offer. I have had other really good lawyers try to get my
business, but I know that no one can do a better job than William Hanlon. Jesse
