Criminal Defense: What to Know

If you have already retained a lawyer, then disregard this site. If not, then let Affordable Attorney, Gerling Law Group Chartered represent you in your case. At Affordable Attorney, Gerling Law Group Chartered, we aggressively defend every criminal case. Every person is expected to follow the law, and that includes Law Enforcement. We review every file and determine if Law Enforcement and the State Attorney’s Office complies with the rules. If they don’t, then we want to ensure their mistake is brought to light and exposed.

Have Your Constitutional Rights Been Violated? Were you Illegally Stopped, Detained, or Questioned?

Was Miranda Rights Read to You?

At Affordable Attorney, Gerling Law Group Chartered we believe that every American is entitled to an attorney. And as your attorney, we will defend every right that you have. Rodney Gerling, Esq. was trained at the Public Defender’s Office where he handled thousands of cases and was Lead Attorney on over 50 Jury Trials. Rodney have been practicing Criminal Law for over five years and is very familiar with the local Judges and State Attorneys in both Manatee and Sarasota County. We eagerly accept the responsibility that every America is afforded the right to an attorney.

If Law Enforcement violates your rights, the Judge must be made aware through the proper motions and hearings in order to ensure that the evidence is suppressed. If the State Attorneys do not comply with their obligations, then I will move to have the case dismissed.
