The mission of the Law
Offices of Nellie L. King, P.A. is to provide zealous representation
of individuals when they need it the most – when they are facing the
vast resources of the government through a criminal prosecution or
investigation. The Firm believes that the defense of a person’s
freedom or life is not to be taken lightly. Justice prevails when
there are advocates who are knowledgeable, passionate and unashamed
to ardently defend the Constitution and those accused of a crime.
In any criminal case, it
is imperative that the accused hire an
attorney immediately. Even if a person has already been
interviewed by law enforcement, a good defense lawyer can make the
difference between years of jail time or none at all. If you are
facing prosecution for a criminal charge, the decisions you make now
can literally affect the rest of your life. The strength of your
defense should be assessed by an attorney who fully understands the
unique facts of your case and who knows how the law applies to your
circumstances. Only then can you make the critical decisions that
will affect your future.
The Firm's core belief is
that each client comes to us with a unique set of circumstances.
This includes not only the factual circumstances which may have
resulted in the client's arrest, but also the client's life history
and experiences.
Nellie King believes that knowing who her client is before she walks
into the courtroom is key to representing the client's position to
the judge or jury. The Firm also believes the role of the criminal
defense attorney is to obtain the best possible result for her
clients. Advocacy offered by the Firm can include; early-phase
representation, wherein evidence is brought to the government which
persuades the prosecution not to file charges at all or to file
lesser charges, efforts to suppress evidence if law enforcement has
violated the rights of an accused via an unlawful search or seizure,
for example, mitigation work in the areas of mental health or
substance abuse issues and jury trial representation when it is
necessary to obtain a result which confirms that a client is not
guilty of the charges leveled against them.
The Firm's office is
centrally located in downtown West Palm Beach, although Ms. King
also handles matters in various state and federal courts throughout
the United States.
