Overview
At the St. Petersburg office of Joseph Montrone, Jr., P.A., my law firm helps people who are involved with the criminal justice system.

For a free initial consultation with an experienced Florida defense lawyer, contact me, Joseph Montrone, at your earliest opportunity.
It's a good idea to get an experienced attorney's advice as soon as you realize you're in trouble with the law. The steps your defense lawyer takes in the earliest stages of the case can go far to protect your interests, especially in criminal matters that are slow to develop, such as many sex crime or domestic violence prosecutions. The objective here is to make sure that you never have to face the most serious potential charges.
My law firm advises and represents people from Tampa-St. Petersburg and from other states who are in trouble on a wide variety of charges. My criminal defense practice covers serious traffic offenses and Florida DUI, juvenile and student offenses, and felony charges like rape, aggravated assault and drug trafficking.
People who need help after a motor vehicle accident can also benefit from my courtroom experience. I represent personal injury and wrongful death clients on the full range of negligence claims that follow car, truck or motorcycle accidents.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
