PRACTICE AREAS
FEDERAL FELONY
Attorney Michael V. Leeman is a former federal prosecutor who worked for the United States Department of Justice for more than a decade. Very few attorneys in Southwest Florida have appeared in federal court as often as him, including as trial counsel in some of the highest-profile federal cases in Southwest Florida history and ranging from capital murder cases to white collar and tax matters to international drug conspiracies.
STATE FELONY
Navigating the state court system can feel overwhelming, often leaving those charged feeling like a number and not a person. Attorney Michael V. Leeman takes a hands-on approach to every case, answering client phone calls personally and responding promptly. Whether you are charged with fraud, aggravated battery, or drug possession, he will personally handle every facet of your case and fight to protect your rights at every turn.
MISDEMEANOR
Misdemeanor cases typically carry less severe punishments but can easily lead to significant consequences with employers, vehicle insurance, and, perhaps most importantly, to your reputation. Attorney Michael V. Leeman understands that no charge is minor to the person facing it, and he treats his misdemeanor clients no differently than those charged with more severe crimes. Whether it's a DUI, domestic violence battery, or reckless driving, our office will handle your case with the respect and professionalism it deserves.
VOP
If you are on probation and are accused of violating its terms, the process ahead of you can be very unforgiving. Often times, the court feels compelled to come down hard on those who are seen to have failed to follow the law, despite having an opportunity to prove themselves. At the Law Office of Michael V. Leeman, we know it's not that simple and that mistakes happen, even to those who are on probation or supervised release. We can and will make sure that your VOP case is thoroughly investigated and presented in the best possible light to the court.
