St. Augustine Criminal Defense Attorneys

When you have been arrested for or charged with a crime, the importance of hiring an attorney cannot be overstated. The likelihood of conviction is too great and the expected and unexpected consequences of being convicted are too serious. Don’t waste valuable time passively hoping your case will go away; take action to protect yourself by contacting an experienced defense attorney today. Early intervention often yields the best results.

If you currently find yourself caught in the criminal justice system, you must protect your rights. The police have likely already arrested you, and now the prosecutor is putting together a case to convict you. Neither is on your side or overly concerned about your rights.

The goal of law enforcement is to uphold the law by arresting people they believe have committed a crime. However, all too often their reports only contain one side of the story.

The goal of the prosecutor is to convict people they believe have committed a crime. Again, when only one side of the story is told or known, your risk of conviction goes up substantially.

Attorney Ryan M. Albaugh is a former prosecutor who will aggressively protect your rights. His experience prosecuting criminal cases from simple misdemeanors to serious felonies has given him an in-depth knowledge and understanding of how the State Attorney prosecutes people. Having been on both sides contributes to Attorney Albaugh’s ability to successfully advocate for and defend you as his client.
