I have tried more than 50 jury trials including Murder and Capital Sexual Battery trials.. I graduated summa cum laude from Florida International University where I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Philosophy with a Certificate in Law, Ethics, and Society. I received my juris doctorate degree from St. Thomas University where I was also the recipient of the ABOTA Trial Scholarship.As an immigrant in this country, I have always had a passion for helping those who could not help themselves. I have devoted my entire career to the zealous advocacy of those accused of crimes. I firmly believe one bad decision does not define a person.

Hi, I’m Susan Lawson, Partner at the Rossen Law Firm. I was born and raised in South Florida and have been practicing criminal defense for over 13 years. The majority of my practice has been in South Florida but I have also practiced in Maryland and the District of Columbia. I have handled thousands of cases and have tried more than 100 jury trials ranging from driving and drug offenses to sexual battery and homicide cases. I have always loved to litigate and help others.

Hi I’m Armand Murach, a highly skilled attorney specializing in criminal defense law. I graduated Cum Laude from Nova Southeastern University Shepard Broad College of Law, where my academic performance earned me the NITA Excellence in Advocacy Award and induction into the prestigious National Order of Barristers, an honors society limited to the top trial advocacy students in each graduating class. These honors reflect my commitment to legal excellence and my passion for advocating for my clients.. Throughout my career, I have become known for my strategic, 360-degree approach to criminal defense. I have handled a wide range of cases, from serious felonies to more minor offenses, establishing myself as a trusted advocate in both state and federal courts. My in-depth criminal law knowledge and courtroom experience allows me to build strong defenses and secure favorable outcomes for my clients. My dedication to justice is evident in my thorough preparation and tireless efforts to protect my clients’ rights.. My legal expertise began with my years of experience as an Assistant Public Defender in the 19th Judicial Circuit, where I handled all types of cases, from major crimes to juvenile cases. This role gave me a comprehensive understanding of criminal law from defense and prosecution perspectives. I represented clients in cases involving violent offenses, drug crimes, murder, and other complex criminal matters, always advocating for the rights of individuals facing serious charges. My work in juvenile defense also allowed me to navigate the unique challenges of representing minors in the justice system. This experience has proven invaluable in shaping my current criminal defense practice and even contributing to changes in the law.. After moving back home to South Florida, I served as an Assistant State Attorney in the 17th Judicial Circuit in Broward County. During this time, I worked in several specialized units, including Drug Trafficking, Traffic Homicide, and the Career Criminal Units. These roles gave me invaluable insight into the strategies and tactics used by the prosecution in complex and high-stakes cases. I also trained and mentored new prosecutors, further sharpening my ability to evaluate cases from multiple perspectives and anticipate prosecutorial moves. This unique combination of prosecutorial experience and training enhances my ability to craft more effective defenses, giving my clients a distinct advantage in criminal cases.. In addition to my legal practice, I have dedicated much of my career to teaching and mentoring aspiring lawyers. For over a decade, I have been actively involved with the National Institute for Trial Advocacy (NITA), where I teach trial skills and help develop the next generation of litigators. I also coach law students in mock trial competitions, helping them hone their courtroom strategies, cross-examination techniques, and persuasive arguments. My commitment to legal education has earned me the respect of my peers as I continue to inspire and shape the future of trial law.

Hello, my name is Michael Davis, and I thank you for visiting my Avvo profile. I know your time is valuable so here is a brief summary of who we are and how we can help you. If you would like more information, please feel free to browse the remainder of our website. I clerked for David Boone in 1979 while I attended law school. In 1981, we began working together. Over the past thirty-five years, we have represented thousands of clients for all kinds of personal injury claims including medical malpractice, auto, truck, and motorcycle accidents, defective products or product liability claims, slip and falls, playground accidents, theme park accidents and victims of criminal attacks occurring at malls, apartments, clubs and bars.

We are always representing people that have suffered an injury. We are here to serve our clients. Some of our staff has been with us for over twenty years and helps us help our clients. We are proud of our profession and we love our work. We try to make all our clients feel special. We think they are. We are litigators. If the at-fault party fails to offer a fair settlement, we will file suit and prepare the case for trial. (Many personal injury lawyers do not litigate – see the section “Why hire us?” #2). We have technology to assist us in presenting a clear and persuasive case on your behalf. Even when we file suit, most of the cases settle before picking a jury. We know that attorney-client communication is one of the most important aspects of the relationship. We want to speak to our clients and hear from them. We return our calls. I give out my cellphone number to clients that want it. We have over 100 cases that settled or resulted in a jury verdict in excess of one million dollars. Many of these were referred to us from satisfied former clients. We want your case and we want your referrals. We know that it is only through exceeding your expectations that you will refer friends and relatives to our firm.

It is crucial that any criminal case be handled with extreme care and caution by an experienced Florida criminal defense attorney. Each case needs to be carefully assessed to determine if it can be dismissed and removed from your arrest record.

The ultimate goal in every criminal case I handle is to either get the case dismissed altogether or to obtain an acquittal at trial.
