Pre-File Investigations

If think you are under investigation for a crime, you should contact an experienced criminal defense attorney right away, as the police and prosecution may be conducting a pre-file investigation.  Pre-file investigations occur before charges are formally filed, often without the alleged suspect’s knowledge or awareness.  This gives prosecutors and law enforcement officials ample time to build their case, obtain evidence, speak with witnesses, and secure expert testimony.   By contacting an Orlando criminal defense attorney as soon as you learn you are under investigation, your attorney will have more time to look into the situation and respond accordingly.

Dedicated Defense During the Pre-File Investigation

At Katz & Phillips, P.A., we have handled many cases involving a pre-trial investigation, and are familiar with what is considered proper protocol during this stage of the criminal process.  We can ensure the police and prosecution do not violate your rights in any way, and that you are treated fairly during questioning and all other stages of your case.  If we find any evidence that disproves the prosecution’s accusations, or any evidence that suggests the police have violated your rights or acted unlawfully during the pre-file investigation, we will make it known to the judge and motion to have the charges dropped and the case dismissed. 

At our office, we have represented many clients throughout Orlando facing pre-trial investigations for such crimes as:
