Mr. Edelstein began his career in the state of Florida as an Assistant Public Defender with the Miami-Dade County Public Defender’s Office.

Facing State or Federal criminal charges is a frightening experience. This is especially true for a person who has never had contact with the criminal justice system, whether it be in Miami, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, or anywhere else. You need an experienced criminal lawyer on your side.
As practicing criminal defense lawyers, sometimes it’s easy to forget how a criminal case looks from a client’s perspective: Suddenly, you find yourself thrust into a world you never imagined you would be a part of, and subjected to indignities you never thought you would experience. The stress of being the subject of an investigation or the trauma of being arrested and booked into a filthy, overcrowded Miami jail can truly be overwhelming. It will make you question your most basic assumptions about what kind of person you are.
