Firm Information

Overview

Whittel & Melton, LLC, is dedicated to providing a high level of personal service and shows a dedication to protecting our clients' interests. We serve clients in Tampa and throughout the state of Florida in the areas of wrongful death, personal injury and criminal defense.

If you are facing a legal issue, it's important to understand both the short- and long-term implications. Sometimes following the path of least resistance can lead to serious problems down the road. For example:

  • Pleading guilty to a criminal charge may seem like the best way to get on with your life. However, pleading guilty will result in a criminal conviction that will affect you for rest of your life. If there is a way to avoid a conviction, you owe it to yourself to explore it.
  • Negotiating with the insurance company yourself may seem like the least expensive way to obtain a settlement. However, you could end up making statements or signing documents that will damage your case and limit your ability to make a full recovery.
  • Accepting an insurance company's first offer for an accident injury may tempting when you are struggling to pay bills. However, once you accept payment, your case is over. You won't be able to go back to the insurance company later if your injuries turn out to be more serious than you first thought.

We are here to protect your short- and long-term interests. Our goal is to help you obtain the best possible resolution of your case whether that is through negotiations or representing you in court. We are experienced trial lawyers who are willing to take your case as far as it needs to go to protect your interests.

Our lawyers include former state of Florida prosecutors, retired military personnel and a retired New York City police officer. Our two founding members, Robert G. Whittel and Jason M. Melton, are former nominees for state and federal office.

Call 813-221-3200 to schedule a consultation. We offer evening and weekend appointments. Phones are answered 24 hours a day. We offer nine office locations in Florida, including Tampa. Se habla español.
