Innovative approaches to matters of consequence

Each client of the Gainesville criminal defense lawyers at the firm is treated with the dignity, care, and dedication that is expected and required of a law firm. Limiting our caseload maximizes our success, because the rights of the accused are too important to lose in the shuffle or leave to chance. We know the old way is not always the best way, and the easy way rarely succeeds.

Larry Turner is one of the most honorable and decent human beings I know

Larry Turner is one of the most honorable and decent human beings I know. If ever there was an AV attorney- it would be Larry Turner. I have known Mr. Turner for over 35 years and he has never conducted himself in any other manner than as I have described. I have practiced against him when I as an Assistant State Attorney for the 8th Judicial Circuit for the State of Florida, as co-counsel with him, and tried a 4 month trial in his court while he served as a Circuit Court Judge.
