Miami Federal Criminal Defense Lawyer
Defending Clients in High-Stakes Federal Cases
Federal criminal charges are among the most severe you can face. In many cases, the U.S. government investigates federal crimes for several years before making an arrest. When you realize you are being investigated or charged, the government may have substantial evidence against you. Additionally, federal charges carry high mandatory minimum and maximum sentences under the law.
If you believe you are under investigation or have been charged with a federal crime, it is critical to have an experienced attorney at your side to help you navigate the criminal justice system. Having a proactive legal team is essential for strategizing your defense and challenging the evidence brought against you. Your future and freedom could depend significantly on the skill and diligence of your defense attorney.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Are Common Defenses Against Federal Charges?
Common defenses against federal charges can vary greatly depending on the nature of the alleged crime. Typically, defenses may include challenging the evidence's sufficiency, disputing the law's interpretation, presenting alibis, and highlighting procedural errors by the prosecution or law enforcement. At Hubbs Law Firm, we customize defense strategies to the specifics of each case, ensuring that the most viable defenses are pursued. Our firm prioritizes thorough investigations and leveraging procedural anomalies to seek dismissals or favorable plea deals.
How Do Federal Sentencing Guidelines Affect My Case?
Federal sentencing guidelines are rules establishing uniform sentencing policies for those convicted of federal crimes. They aim to avoid disparate sentences that can arise from judicial discretion. These guidelines consider factors like the severity of the offense and the defendant’s criminal history to determine an appropriate sentencing range. These guidelines are crucial when facing federal charges, as they directly impact plea negotiations, trial strategy, and potential sentencing outcomes. Our attorneys at Hubbs Law Firm leverage insights into these guidelines to advocate for lesser penalties and fair sentencing.
What Should I Expect in a Miami Federal Court?
Processes in Miami's federal courts can differ slightly from those in state courts due to the nature of the crimes and procedural rules that apply. In federal court, cases begin with a grand jury or preliminary hearing, followed by arraignment, pre-trial motions, and potentially a trial. Miami's federal courts deal with a high volume of international crime cases due to the city’s position as a key location for commerce and travel, impacting the speed and complexity of proceedings. Hubbs Law Firm’s attorneys are experienced with these unique dynamics and provide clients with realistic expectations and strategic guidance tailored to local court procedures.
