Milton, Florida Criminal Defense Lawyer

If you have been charged with a crime in Florida, or in any other state, do not speak to law enforcement until you have consulted with an experienced lawyer. I am Laura Spencer Coleman, and from my offices in Milton, I will work to ensure that you receive the best possible outcome in your criminal case. I will work to have your case dismissed, will take your case to trial, or will work to negotiate the best possible plea bargain for your particular circumstance.

You Have More Rights Than Your Realize

Do not go into the Courtroom alone. There is an incredibly experienced prosecutor on the other side of the aisle who is looking for every possible way to convict you. You deserve to an experienced attorney ready to fight for you.

Over the past decade, I have handled hundreds of court-appointed cases in Santa Rosa County, including Felonies, Misdemeanors, Traffic Offenses, Juvenile Matters, and Violations of Probation. As a former probation officer, I am familiar with the probation and criminal justice system and I am comfortable handling defense matters whether in negotiation or the court room.

From the moment you are charged, I will work with you through the criminal justice process. The first step is to set a bond you can afford. Once you are released, I will work with you through the discovery phase, build your case, and handle negotiations with the prosecution. If a fair settlement cannot be reached, I will be ready to take your case to trial.

While it is ultimately our goal to have the charges dismissed, that's not always possible. I will work to lower the charges you face and minimize the potential damages of a conviction. I provide zealous defense for clients facing all Florida state criminal charges, including:

  • Domestic violence
  • Drug cases (trafficking, possession, intent to sell or distribute)
  • DUI/DWI
  • Assault and battery
  • Theft and robbery
  • Traffic offenses
  • Probation violation hearings

Juvenile Delinquency

The juvenile court system poses its own unique challenges. While the goal of the criminal courts is punishment, the goal of the juvenile courts is rehabilitation. I have helped hundreds of children navigate through the juvenile court system, and I am very familiar with the resources available in our area to assist children and their families. I have handled juvenile cases ranging from serious sexual offenses to minor loitering violations, and I am able to help you seek long term solutions.
