To determine your charges and the type of sentence you will be given, prosecutors and judges take into account the amount of the controlled substance, the classification of the controlled substance, and whether you have any previous arrest for drugs.

If you're facing criminal charges, you need an experienced and aggressive criminal defense attorney like Robert A. Dees to get you through this tough time. Many crimes result in jail time, even at their minimum sentences. Robert A. Dees will be able to help mitigate, reduce or even dismiss the charges against you so that you can get back to living your life.
As a former prosecutor and now defense attorney, I have been representing clients in Florida for over 12 years. I have developed the legal skills to help guide you through the legal system and to help you achieve the results you need. Whether it is to avoid jail time or to get the charges dismissed, we are here to help you.
Many lawyers advertise that they handle DUI cases, but very few have actually or will actually take your case to trial. Prosecutors know what lawyers will or will not take a case to trial. For those lawyers who will not take your DUI to trial, there is no incentive for a prosecutor to reduce or dismiss their client's case as they know it will not be a trial.
Criminal traffic citations can be charged as a misdemeanor or as a felony. Traffic offenses include any offense committed while driving a motor vehicle. If you are charged with a criminal traffic offense, contact an experienced criminal defense attorney in Okaloosa County.

I am from out of town and picked Mr Dees from a website to represent me in a personal injury case, which happened in Florida. He was very professional, courteous, and promptly considered my request for his services. He was able to guide me in the process, and working with him, we were able to come to a satisfied settlement. I recommend Mr. Dees in the Florida area for personal injury claims.

The last thing anyone ever wants to deal with is the stresses and inconveniences of the court system. But let's face it, we're all humans and whether it was a mistake or not, having to deal with the court system is something many of us go through at one point or another. With life-lasting implications on the table, it's imperative that anyone going through the judicial system be fully aware of their rights throughout the duration of their case. With that being said, if you ever find yourself searching for counsel in a criminal matter, look no further. Going into the first meeting I had with Mr

Literally the best Attorney!!! The biggest weight has been lifted from shoulders. I hired the best Attorney and Mr. Dees was the best decision I could have made. He is straight up, gives you all the info good or bad and is just beyond great. He’s down to earth and has an open line of communication which helped my anxiety. I was facing a first degree felony and he managed to get it dropped to a misdemeanor that wouldn’t look too bad on my record. he wouldn’t let up until I got the best out come I could. He fixed my mess & I don't know how I could ever truly thank him and his staff for being

I've used Mr. Dees 2 different times dealing with Escambia County and the state of Florida. Mr. Dees got both cases dismissed for me. Me. Mr. Dees is very respectful, easy to talk to and non judgemental. I will definitely use his services again if I need to. I highly recommend him for legal matters.

The selection process of an attorney is a nerve racking and stressful time in ones life. Upon meeting Robert and his staff I immediately knew that I was at the right place. During the entire legal process that I endured there was never a time when Robert and his staff did anything to make me feel uneasy. Robert Dees is available at any time of the day and is willing to go to any length for his clients. I was extremely grateful to have someone as knowledgeable and tenured in the legal field as Robert. It was extremely important for me to know my rights and Robert was to the point on communicating

I cannot say enough about Robert and his team. The first time I spoke with Robert on the phone, I knew he was going to be our attorney. He and his team are always available to talk and he even gave us his cell phone number. Very accessible and down to earth. He is on your side and listens well to your needs. I hope I never have to get an attorney again but if I do, it will be Robert. I highly recommend Robert and his team!
