Seeking Dismissal Where Possible in Criminal Defense Matters

While every individual's case is different, the primary goal of your criminal defense is to get the charges dismissed, where possible. We are also not afraid to go to trial in order to achieve a not guilty verdict. However, we understand that even if your case may not just "go away," we do everything possible to minimize the consequences of your case.

Attorney Craig A. Epifanio carefully reviews the evidence related to your arrest, interviews witnesses, and zealously attacks the weaknesses in the prosecution's case. As your lawyer, he will scrutinize the prosecutor's case and be on the lookout for coerced confessions, illegal searches and seizures and arrests made with no probable cause.

Reassuring, Responsive Client Service

Whether you are dealing with a criminal defense, traffic, juvenile defense, a personal injury or an estate planning matter, Mr. Epifanio will take the time to listen to your concerns and then help you understand your rights and make informed decisions. We are committed to responding to you in a timely manner and making sure you are regularly updated on your case.

As a former President of the Pinellas Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (PACDL), he maintained relationships with all those involved in the criminal justice legal community — including judges, prosecutors, and other criminal defense attorneys. Attorney Epifanio knows the court system and always seeks to get the best resolution possible for each individual client.

Mr. Epifanio has been able to use his real world practical experience in the legal field as well. For example, as an avid motorcycle enthusiast (he rides a Kawasaki Vulcan), Mr. Epifanio often talks to people that have either been accused of crimes on their motorcycle or have been injured by other drivers while on their motorcycle. He is able to personally understand their stories better than most attorneys due to his personal experiences as a rider.
