An arrest can cause stress and be a blow to your personal reputation. It is probable that you will face charges in a Florida State Court in the matter which led to this arrest or in the matter you are undergoing investigation for by a local Florida police department. Any type of crime committed at a state level is considered to be a violation of both state statutes and local statutes or ordinances. This type of case is prosecuted in circuit/county court and take place in the county in which the state attorney filed the matter. If a seasoned criminal defense attorney, like those at Rosenberg & Cummings PLLC intercepts the initial intervention, you could potentially avoid arrest and/or prosecution, as well as have your case dropped or the record of arrest erased or sealed.
