Former Prosecutors Take the Defense
At The Law Offices of Agoston & Chandler, P.A., our lawyers have been on the other side of criminal defense negotiations and understand how the prosecution puts a case together. David Agoston is a former prosecutor, a former public defender, and a former public defender supervisor. James (Jamie) Chandler worked in the state attorney's office in the misdemeanor, juvenile delinquency and adult felony divisions, and while there was involved in every aspect of the prosecution.
We believe that former prosecutors make good defenders.
We will look at your case through the lens of a prosecutor and then through the lens of the Constitution. We look for strong points, weak points and missing information. Our analysis of your case always begins by taking a look at the other side's point of view.
"We are vigorous defenders of our clients' constitutional and legal rights." — Attorney David Agoston
Our Approach to Your Case
Because of our experience on the prosecution side of the equation, we approach criminal defense cases with a parallel track. We work towards a negotiated settlement while at the same time preparing for trial of the case. Our attitude also varies. With our clients, we are laid back, candid and casual while opposing counsel may discover that behind our outward smile lies a sharp set of teeth.
As our client, we will offer you the following:
- An aggressive approach toward discovery of evidence and testimony
- No lies, exaggerations or empty promises — what you see is what you get
- A casual and comfortable working relationship with our clients
- A proactive and strategic approach to criminal defense
- A convenient location (walking distance) to the courts and courtrooms
Although we are Florida criminal law attorneys who are comfortable taking a case before a judge or jury, we do not litigate at the expense of our clients or jeopardize a settlement. Our goal is always in sync with your best result in mind.
