Child Abuse
All federal and state crimes must be established beyond a reasonable doubt. You should not assume that your conviction is assured, but instead you should consult an experienced criminal defense attorney about your circumstances. Criminal charges that we handle include assault and battery, DUI, drug crimes, weapons charges, theft, burglary, trespass, domestic violence, child abuse, robbery, homicide, sexual battery, insurance fraud, and credit card fraud. Certain crimes are punished very harshly, making it imperative to consult an attorney as soon as possible. If you are convicted of drug trafficking in Florida, for example, you may face a mandatory minimum sentence of incarceration, a sentence over which the judge has no discretion.

DUI/DWI
If you have been charged with a DUI, within 10 days of arrest, it is likely that your driver's license will be administratively suspended for at least six months and/or confiscated by authorities. Generally, you only have 10 days from the date of arrest to contest this suspension-so you must act quickly to protect any rights you might have.

Wrongful Death
Bikers often seem to have a higher burden of proof when pursuing compensation for injuries in an accident. Florida has a history of unjustly profiling bikers within the law enforcement community and sadly also within our jury system. If you were hit by a careless driver while you were riding your motorcycle, you need a lawyer who understands all of the legal and factual issues surrounding motorcycle injury cases. Jason M. Melton understands the difficulties that riders face. He is a Founding Member of the National Academy of Motorcycle Injury Lawyers, and he was rated a Top 20 Motorcycle Injury Lawyer in America by Biker Justice USA. Wrongful Death
Traffic Violations
Many people assume that traffic offenses are not serious. If you accumulate too many of them, however, you can incur enough points on your record that your driver’s license will be suspended. Different points are applied to different offenses. For unlawful speed with an accident, you may get six points on your record. Four points may be imposed for reckless driving. If you leave the scene of an accident in which there was at least $50 of damage, you may get six points. Speeding carries three points. You should consult an experienced attorney about whether there is a way to defeat a traffic charge, especially if you are facing the possibility of your driver’s license being revoked or suspended.

Homicide
Arson
Shoplifting
Manslaughter
Finally, the difference between a misdemeanor or felony DUI is based on several factors. First, if the DUI is a driver's third DUI within 10 years or their fourth or subsequent DUI, the State can file a Felony DUI charge. Second, a Felony DUI can be charged if the injuries caused by the DUI resulted in a serious bodily injury or death (also called DUI Manslaughter).

Wrongful Termination
Florida employers need to follow laws that govern each stage of the employment relationship, from hiring to termination. At Whittel & Melton, we handle lawsuits arising out of wrongful termination, harassment, discrimination, retaliation, minimum wage violations, overtime violations, qui tam actions, family and medical leave, non-compete agreements, and severance agreements. If your rights were violated by your employer, we may be able to represent you in a lawsuit for damages. For example, federal, state, and local laws prohibit employment discrimination based on an employee’s membership in a protected class, and you may be able to recover damages for that discrimination. Federal anti-discrimination laws include Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), while the Florida Civil Rights Act prohibits discrimination at the state level.

Property Damage
Floridians are used to severe weather, such as hurricanes, tropical storms, heavy winds, rain and hail storms. Many times, these natural disasters that can wreak havoc on homes in the Sunshine State require extensive property damage that results in homeowners needing to file an insurance claim. When you have property damage from a hurricane or storm, you must act quickly. While you look to your insurance company to side with you and make the necessary repairs to your home, the truth of the matter is that insurance companies are in the business to make money, not lose it, which is why they will often delay or deny claims in order to skip out on having to pay for the full scope of damages. Insurance companies will do everything they can to save a buck, and even if they do pay out money to you, the adjuster assigned to your case may act in bad faith to lessen your total payout. You want to make sure that you recoup enough coverage to cover the damage that has been done to your property, which is why you need to enlist the help of a property damage lawyer who has experience handling insurance litigation. Our team of Florida Hurricane and Storm Damage Lawyers at Whittel & Melton has helped numerous residential and business property owners recover the full amount for their losses caused by hurricanes, tropical storms, windstorms, and hail damage, and we can help your family, too.

Personal Injury
Florida is a no-fault state, which means that you must turn first to your own insurance to pay for your injuries after a car accident, irrespective of who caused the accident. However, when a certain threshold of serious injuries is met, it may be possible to sue for damages. Our firm has handled personal injury lawsuits arising out of a range of car accidents, including head-on collisions, rear-end collisions, highway accidents, and intersection accidents. Sometimes insurers are unwilling to pay a fair amount to car accident victims. It is critical to retain an attorney to undertake a proper investigation and make sure that evidence is preserved so that you are in a strong position to obtain a fair settlement from an insurer or obtain a favorable verdict at trial. Often, a Spring Hill injury lawyer will need to retain experts to reconstruct what happened or provide testimony on damages.
Medical Malpractice
If you were injured through the fault of another person, you may be able to recover compensatory damages by bringing a personal injury lawsuit. There are many types of accidents that give rise to personal injury lawsuits in Florida. We handle cases arising out of car crashes, motorcycle accidents, truck accidents, medical malpractice, slip and falls, swimming pool accidents, negligent security, and boating accidents, among other examples. Often, our Spring Hill injury attorneys pursue personal injury lawsuits under a theory of negligence. Negligence is a person’s failure to act reasonably under the circumstances, which causes harm to someone else. Car Accidents
