Have a Safe and Free Holiday Season.

During this time of year, we gather together with family and friends to celebrate 2017 and look forward to a safe and free 2018.  Sometimes that word free takes on multiple meanings.  For some, it means freedom to move about safely and securely.  On occasion, people are falsely accused of crimes.

This is a stressful and life-altering event in the life of you or a loved one.  We at Kidder and Bennett do not EVER want that to be the case in your inner-circle.  This should be a time of carefree celebration.  The families who comprise our office will be celebrating with loved ones and we hope that is the case with you and yours.

Nat Kidder and Bill Bennett have celebrated decades together helping citizens of Pinellas County and the surrounding area to obtain aggressive defense when facing criminal charges.  We hope that you will not need our services in 2018, but if you do, please take a minute and visit our website at kidderbennet.com.  Once again, Happy Holidays to one and all.

Stay Away from Synthetics.

In this case when we refer to synthetics we are talking about drugs.  What is a synthetic drug?  It is defined as a drug with properties and effects similar to a known hallucinogen or narcotic but having a slightly altered chemical structure.  Just because some have looked the other way, these drugs are potentially dangerous and definitely illegal in the state of Florida.

Here is a fact of which you should be aware.  Buying, selling or smoking synthetic marijuana is NO LONGER LEGAL.  Possession of synthetic drugs, including K2, spice, or other synthetic drugs is classified as a First Degree Misdemeanor in Florida if under 3 grams.  Remember that and proceed accordingly!

IF you are arrested on a charge of using or distributing synthetic drugs in Pinellas County you have a strong law firm that you can count on.  Rely on the combined 50 years of experience of Nat Kidder and Bill Bennett at the St. Petersburg office of Kidder and Bennett attorneys at law.  Don’t hesitate!  Call this number immediately (727) 821-8000.

Grand Theft in Florida.

Not just theft, mind you, but grand theft needs to be defined if you or a loved one has been accused in the Sunshine State.  Under Florida law, Grand Theft is any intentional and unlawful taking of property valued at $300.00 or more.  That does not sound like an enormous amount of money, but it is very serious.

Grand theft is a felony offense, with penalties that may include prison, probation, fines, restitution, and a permanent criminal record.  That permanent part will follow you around for the rest of your life.  Here is the thing…there are certain circumstances that may reduce this charge and you NEED to know them.

If you or a loved one faces a charge like this you need to immediately call the Kidder and Bennett law firm.  Headquartered in St. Petersburg, Kidder and Bennett is a Florida grand theft defense attorney law firm.  You don’t mess around with a charge like this!  Seek aggressive defense from Nat Kidder and Bill Bennett by calling (727) 821-8000.
