Experienced Criminal Lawyer in Fort Myers, Florida

"The first duty of society is justice"

The facade over the Fort Myers Federal Courthouse is inscribed with a powerful truth: “The first duty of society is justice.” I, Harold M. Stevens, am a firm believer in this message and all that it implies. I have spent more than 30 years in criminal trial practice ensuring that my clients get the fair legal representation they need to secure their rights and defend their interests in a criminal trial.  When you retain my legal services, I will do everything within ethical and legal bounds to provide you with the best possible representation.

As of August 15, 2011, I am one of only 375 attorneys to be Board Certified by The Florida Bar in Criminal Trial Practice. The Florida Bar allows Board Certified lawyers to identify themselves as "expert" or "specialists" in criminal defense only after they have undergone a rigorous evaluation of professional credentials, trial ability, legal knowledge and involvement in criminal trial practice.

A focus on drunk driving defense and federal crimes

In recent years, I have devoted the majority of my practice to defending clients facing DUI charges and federal crimes. If you have been arrested for drunk driving or a federal charge, I do far more than stand by your side during your hearing.  I take action for you as soon as you come to me for help. The punishments for conviction are severe, and I do everything possible to minimize the negative repercussions associated with arrest and conviction.
