Aggressively Combatting Charges In Federal Courts

If you have been charged with a federal crime, you face an all-out battle to protect your future; with the federal government involved, you are at a huge disadvantage when mounting your defense. When facing such an uphill battle that may result in severe consequences, it is important to begin planning your defense with an aggressive and experienced attorney as quickly as possible after you have been notified of a pending investigation or have been arrested for a federal offense.

At the law firm of Michael J. Griffith, P.A., we offer aggressive and insightful defense against a wide range of federal offense. With more than 40 years of experience, our Escambia County federal crimes lawyers have the knowledge and skills needed to help you mount a strong defense against charges relating to:

White collar crimes
Mortgage fraud
Money laundering
Insurance fraud
Corruption or conspiracy
Drug trafficking
Securities fraud

We believe that there is no substitute for experience and aggression when you have been charged with a federal offense. With that philosophy in mind, we will not rest until we have explored every last defense option available to you. On your behalf, we will consult experienced experts, including private investigators and forensic examiners who will assist in reviewing your case. Any evidence gained during our review, including inconsistencies in evidence, deviations from police procedure or infringements upon your rights, will then be used to draft your defense.

Do Not Wait To Begin Planning Your Defense

A conviction of a federal offense can lead to severe penalties, most notably incarceration in a federal penitentiary. If you have learned that you have become the focus of a federal crimes investigation, or have already been arrested on federal charges, it is important to contact our office immediately. By getting us involved early, you can begin planning your defense while the prosecution is still gathering evidence against you. This aggressive approach greatly improves your chances of limiting the harm caused by a conviction.

Our staff is available to discuss your case 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and will happily accept the collect charges should you need to talk to us about your charges from jail. Contact us online or call (850) 495-7977 to learn more about our federal crimes defense and how we can help you protect your future.

Mr. Griffith, Cheryl, and their entire team stood by me and fought for me during the two most difficult years of my life. He is compassionate and truly cares about his clients.

If you find yourself in need of someone to fight for you and winning is the only option, Mr. Griffith is the one to call. Trust him, be patient, and don't get discouraged. It is difficult but he can and will make it happen.

"Thank goodness for Michael!"
What a professional!! A young person, for whom I care dearly, made a mistake that could have landed him in prison for five years, with a felony on his record to boot. Needless to say, we were distraught and needed the very best attorney we could find in the Pensacola area...that was Michael Griffith. Michael certainly knows what he is doing and his staff kept me informed all along the way with letters of upcoming court dates and full disclosure of all materials pertaining to the case. He was always available for discussion of the case, either immediately or with a timely returned call. If you're looking for an attorney who fully understands the legal system and how to handle a client's case for the best outcome, that's Michael. In the end, with Michael's skilled negotiations, the felony was reduced to a misdemeanor and the young person was given the option of probation or to serve a short sentence and have no probation. It was a totally unbelievable outcome, considering the result that could have been. Now this young person, who has realized how close he came to ruining his life, still has a chance to be successful with all doors open to him. All I can say is thank goodness for Michael!

"This man works miracles!"
Michael Griffith is by far the best attorney you could get to represent you. He genuinely cares about each and every client he represents and coming from someone that works in the legal profession, know that is something hard to find in an attorney. Trust him and the processes of his office. If you have questions he is only a phone call away and always returns calls within 24 hours. It is truly remarkable to see an attorney care about his clients' futures and well being the way Michael Griffith does. He got me results better than anything I could have ever expected because of the hard work and knowledge his office puts in. If you hire Michael Griffith, do so knowing you have the best possible representation and will get the best possible outcome for your particular case. This man works miracles!

"Amazing work!"
Mr. Griffith is a true monster in the courtroom. Saved my son twice, from ruining his future. He is worth every penny. Believe in what he does. He has your best interest at heart. Just don't call him every five days. He already has your case figured out the first time you are in his office. He just won't tell you because, he doesn't want you messing it up. Just listen to him, show up to court, and enjoy the show. Wish you could live forever brother. The work you do is amazing. Thanks again Mr. Griffith.

"Absolutely amazing!"
Mr. Griffith was absolutely amazing and one of the sweetest, most professional people I have met in Pensacola. I was charged with a felony and Mr. Griffith helped me get my felony completely dropped from my record. He is very personal and treats you like a human being rather than just another client who has made a mistake. I DEFINITELY RECOMEND Micheal J. Griffith!

- Lauren
"Worth every penny!"
Great, experienced attorney. Delivered beyond our expectations and saved our son by getting him a second chance. Worth every penny! We visited other so called criminal attorneys who just gave us lip service and wanted the cash. We highly recommend Mr. Griffith.

"He went above and beyond for me!"
Michael Griffith is hands down the best attorney. I had traveled to Pensacola from out of state and unfortunately got into some legal trouble. I was able to reach attorney Griffith on a Sunday and get in to see him the following Monday. He went above and beyond for me, stayed in touch with me as I had to return to my home state. He was constantly updating me and always asking if I had any questions. He fought hard on my case and the outcome was far better than I expected.
