St Augustine Criminal Defense Attorney
One of the most difficult and life-altering events that can take place in a person’s life is being arrested and charged with a crime. Even the process of being accused of a crime and questioned by law enforcement is a very stressful event that should not be confronted alone. Curtis Fallgatter has extensive legal experience on both sides of the law, first as a federal prosecutor and then as a proven and successful criminal defense attorney representing those accused of a crime. Lisa Varon has been defending the rights of those accused of crimes for more than 25 years. Nothing can take the place of sound legal counsel and aggressive representation from experienced criminal law attorneys who have represented hundreds of clients facing criminal charges.
Sometimes good people make bad choices and find themselves on the wrong side of the law.

Know Your Rights
If you have been arrested, you have the Constitutional right to remain silent and to have an attorney present when you answer questions. These Miranda rights are guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Your decision to remain silent or to have an attorney present cannot be used against you at trial. If you waive these rights, you may make incriminating statements that law enforcement will use to convict you. If you have been accused of a crime, ask to speak to an attorney before answering any questions or making any statements to law enforcement about your case. Tell the officer your attorney is Curtis Fallgatter, and promptly retain Fallgatter Catlin & Varon, PA.
The attorney you choose can make the difference in a successful outcome. The opportunity to have Fallgatter Catlin and Varon represent you in St. Johns County is only a phone call away.
