My name is Andrew D Stine and I am a criminal defense attorney in South Florida, see ANDREWSTINE.COM. Since 2001 I have been protecting the rights of the accused throughout all of Florida. My law firm is located in downtown West Palm Beach, Florida.
I have defended those accused of criminal acts in Palm Beach County, Broward County, Dade County, Martin County, St. Lucie County, Okeechobee County, Highlands County, Orange County, Duval County, and Indian River County; and throughout the Federal courts within the State of Florida.
I have extensive experience in helping those accused of all criminal acts like: Murder, Trafficking in Human Beings, Federal Communication Piracy, Trafficking in Cocaine, Trafficking in Hydrocodone, Possession and Sale of Cocaine, Possession and Sale of Marijuana, Possession and Sale of Heroin, Possession and Sale of Meth, Aggravated Assault with a Firearm and other Deadly Weapons, Firing a Deadly Missile into a Dwelling and Automobile, Aggravated Battery, Sexual Assault, Grand Theft over $100,000.00, Organized Scheme to Defraud, Prostitution, Petit Theft, Driving Under the Influence, Driving Under Suspension, Domestic Battery, Injunctions from Abuse and an endless number of other criminal acts numbering into the thousands.
I have been accused of representing the “Top Six.” I do not even know who they are, as none of clients have ever divulged such a revelation to me. I have read about their alleged affiliation in the Palm Beach Post and heard the Nightly News reports. I have even received numerous requests to speak about the Top Six, the Haitian Gang from Lake-Worth and Lantana Florida, but I cannot speak of something I know nothing about.
I have represented the worst animal cruelty cases founded within the State of Florida. On every occasion the accused had their animals returned and the County ostracized my work in the local nightly new and print media. Hell my family and I even received death threats. I love all animals; I own dogs, horses and even fish. It is the government and their abusive power that I dislike.
I represented one of the first defendants in the Federal Courts for Trafficking in Human Beings. Everyone has seen the nightly news were criminal defendants charged with the crime of trafficking in humans; receive sentences of life (the wheel) or years measured in decades. The Government had the smuggler’s confession. The victims were granted immunity in exchange for their testimony and the cherry they received resident alien status. The client I represented, a Guatemalan National, received a sentence of 14 months. The key to the case and the lenient sentence was my motion practice, I made the Government work. The law office of Andrew Stine files motions. Make them work!
My experience of representing those accused of drug and narcotic crimes is measured in volumes. Representing an accused for possession, sale or trafficking in: marijuana, cocaine, heroin, meth., hydrocodone is really individualized. What does that mean? Well the theory of defenses changes drastically from one defendant to the next. Therefore, each client accused of a drug crime provides exciting and new challenges for the office.
Some might say “you are beating your own chest.” This Blog is an advertisement. Well I provided the above to hopefully demonstrate my experience and skills. Well so what your website at ANDREWSTINE.COM tells me that, why is any different here?
Here I am going to provide a forum for updated motions and legal opinions free of charge. The motions will be the actually ones I filed throughout the State of Florida and in the Federal Courts to help my clients accused of crimes. The squibs and briefs of those opinions will be crisp and concise. The briefs or squibs will be useful to practicing attorneys who need updates on the law and for those who want to learn about the law. If there are any questions about the motions, briefs or squibs, I can be reached at either (561) 832-1170 or ANDREWSTINE.COM.
I will also try to keep all readers current on Law Enforcement Officers who get arrested, indicted or are under criminal investigation; so that if that officer is involved in one of the readers pending cases, it could be beneficial for the reader to know. I also behest all readers to post their own sediments and advice within the contents of this Blog. But please be careful about what you say or post as the evil eyes are always watching. As we all know, our Constitutional Rights are eroding on a daily basis. I also ask that if other lawyers post information that they too be careful not to mislead the readers; as the readers will certainly use the information within this Blog to help themselves out of a jam or prevent themselves from becoming just another number.
