"After being wrongfully accused and charged with sexual battery I had no idea what to do or where to even start. From our very first meeting Bjorn Brunvand, Wilingy Ramos and the entire team at Brunvand Wise did an absolutely outstanding job. There was never a day during my case that I didn’t feel taken care of by this incredible team. Bjorn went above and beyond, even after my case, to help clear my name in the system and publicly. When this horrible journey began I wasn’t sure how my family and I would get through it. Bjorn and his team were there every step of the way. They made sure I was informed and involved in the handling of my case and provided the best legal support I could have asked for. This was not an easy or quick process by any means but I never felt like my case was put to the side. Thank you will never be enough to express how grateful I am for their dedication to ensure justice was served. My family and I are finally able to move forward and put this nightmare behind us thanks to Bjorn and his team."

Firm Information
Overview
At Brunvand, Wise & Farinella Law Group, we understand that when you are facing criminal charges, your freedom, reputation and future may be at stake. From our Tampa, Florida, office, we provide aggressive, strategic defense for clients confronting serious allegations in state and federal courts. With more than 40 years of combined experience, we bring the knowledge, preparation and tenacity necessary to navigate high-stakes criminal matters.
Our team is led by Bjorn E. Brunvand, a Florida Bar board-certified and nationally board-certified criminal trial attorney. We draw on extensive experience handling complex and high-profile cases, using a careful understanding of the evidence and the law to develop defense strategies tailored to each client. We recognize that a successful outcome can take many forms. Depending on the circumstances, it may mean an acquittal, dismissal of charges, a substantial reduction in sentencing or another resolution that allows our client to move forward.
Our practice encompasses a broad range of criminal matters, including federal criminal defense, white collar crime and fraud, drug crimes, capital crimes, sex offenses and DUI/DWI. We represent clients ranging from professionals facing allegations involving PPP fraud, bank fraud, health care fraud, RICO and embezzlement to individuals accused of serious felony offenses.
We do not take a one-size-fits-all approach to criminal defense. We examine the prosecution’s case closely, identify weaknesses and pursue every viable opportunity to protect our clients’ rights and interests. We understand that criminal cases move quickly, and we are prepared to act with purpose from the earliest stages of an investigation.
Our Tampa team serves clients throughout Florida and handles federal matters across the country. We also offer fluent Spanish-speaking services to help ensure our clients have clear communication throughout their cases.
