Family Law

Child Custody and Visitation
Child Abuse
When boiled down to its simplest terms, domestic violence is defined as abuse within an intimate relationship or within a family setting, including spousal abuse and child abuse.

Criminal Law

Criminal Defense
When our Tampa criminal defense attorneys take on a case, we do everything we can to obtain exceptional results for our client. Thatâ€™s because, at Thomas & Paulk, every client is considered a top priority.
DUI/DWI
His legal experience includes time spent as a certified legal intern with the Hillsborough County State Attorney's Office, working as a Felony Prosecutor at the 13th Judicial Circuit in Hillsborough County, and serving as the State Attorney's Office liaison to Law Enforcement. Paulk also graduated from Florida Prosecuting Attorney's DUI School & Advanced DUI School. His extensive training has made sure his clients have received the best possible outcomes for their cases.
Traffic Violations
This compact is shared by 45 states in the U.S. It operates under the theme of â€œOne Driver, One License, One Recordâ€ and works to help create consistency with how states throughout the country handle out-of-state traffic violations. This interstate compact requires its members to exchange information with other member-states whenever a non-resident is arrested or cited. Then, the defendantâ€™s home state would treat it as if the offense had happened on home turfâ€”including penalties and driverâ€™s license suspension.
Sex Crimes
Few offenses are as serious as sex crimes. Your reputation and future will be at risk, making it essential to choose a leading defense team. Thomas & Paulk has proven results in sex crime defense counsel.
Fraud
Money Laundering: Money laundering is the act of passing illegitimately earned funds through a legitimate entity to mask their origin. Defendants may be accused of laundering money to hide profits from theft, robbery, tax fraud, drug sales, or more.
Robbery
In some instances, a crime can be charged at the state and federal level. For example, a person can receive state and federal charges for bank robbery. This is because the act is outlawed at the federal and state level. One could even face separate sentences.
Burglary
If you have been arrested for a theft crime â€” whether it was robbery, burglary or grand theft auto â€”you need to have an aggressive attorney in your corner dedicated to protecting your rights. The penalties associated with theft crimes can be severe, and you will want someone who knows the laws and knows the best ways to protect you against a conviction.
White Collar Crimes
When it comes to white collar crimes, there are no "soft" charges. You could face years in prison and heavy fines. Our attorneys fight for our clients' interests in the face of investigations and allegations.
Theft
Misdemeanors
In 1997, he was admitted both to the Florida and Federal Bar. After being admitted to practice, Thomas spent time as a Felony Prosecutor at the 13th Judicial Circuit in Hillsborough County. He also workedÂ as the lead trial attorney in the felony division and was lead counsel in felony cases, as well as misdemeanor and traffic offenses.
Embezzlement
Embezzlement: The misappropriation of funds. This occurs when someone in a position of trust (like a manager or accountant) begins to redirect or take the money for personal gain. This can often occur for long periods without detection.
Drug Crimes
Possession, distribution, manufacturing, and cultivation are all drug crimes that carry severe penalties in Florida. Our Tampa drug crime lawyers use 40+ years of combined experience to combat these.
Assault
A felony is punishable by more than one year in a state correctional facility. Many felonies are violent crimes or serious offenses that are therefore harshly penalized. Aggravated assault, battery on a law enforcement officer, residential burglary, child abuse, possession of a controlled substance, grand theft auto, murder and manslaughter, kidnapping, and rape are all examples of felonies that carry those kinds of harsh penalties.
Murder
While prosecutors can use conspiracy charges to convict a person of a crime, they'll also use them to extract more information from someone in a case. For example, if someone is accused of murder, but a prosecutor needs more evidence against them, they might charge someone suspected to be associated with the crime with conspiracy. This can give a person who has information about a crime incentive to share it in exchange for a modified sentence.
Juvenile Crimes
If your son or daughter was recently arrested, you probably have a lot of questions about the juvenile justice process in Florida. Juvenile crimes are handled in a completely different manner than crimes involving adult offenders. You need an attorney experienced with the juvenile justice system to provide effective defense counsel.
Probation Violation
A probation violation is a serious criminal charge that may result in imprisonment or extended probation. It is crucial that you retain an experienced defense team. At Thomas & Paulk, weâ€™ve handled more than 7,000 cases. Our team has what you need to take on the most challenging probation violation cases. You have the right to challenge allegations that you have violated probation.
Identity Theft
For example, identity theft is illegal under state and federal law. As a state offense, the "criminal use of personal identification information" is criminalized under Sec. 817.568. So, in Florida, identity theft can be prosecuted as a felony of the third degree, punishable by up to 5 years in prison and a fine not to exceed $5,000. On the federal level, identity theft is criminalized under 18 U.S. Code Sec. 1028. The punishment for identity theft under federal law is a fine and up to 20 years in prison.
Homicide
Arson
Violent felonies. Weâ€™re talking about arson, sexual battery, aggravated child abuse, aggravated battery, manslaughter, and murderâ€”those types of crimes. For a judge to apply the habitual offender law, all three of the offenses must be separate violent felonies that occurred within a five-year timespan. Plus, the accused must have been convicted of the crime, not just arrested.
Shoplifting
More "minor" thefts are typically classified as petit thefts. However, just because it is called minor does not mean that they are not serious. The penalties for these crimes are still severe. Per Florida Statutes, a petit theft of the first degree occurs when the property taken is valued between $100 and $300 or if the defendant has a prior theft conviction on their criminal record. Most instances of shoplifting are charged as petit theft crimes.
Forgery
Fraud: Fraud can be anything from counterfeiting to forgery. Frequent targets of fraud include taxes, banks, mail, and the Internet. Penalties for fraud may vary.
Money Laundering
Kidnapping
Manslaughter
Often referred to as vehicular manslaughter, this involved killing another person by causing an accident while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. This felony offense may be punishable by up to 15 to 30 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000.
Internet Crimes
An Internet crime is a criminal act that occurs while on the Internet, through use of the Internet, or by means of the Internet. Due to the anonymity it offers and the Web's wide influence on nearly all aspects of people's lives, Internet-related crimes have increasingly been the focus of law enforcement and prosecutors nationwide.
Prostitution
Extortion
Extortion: Also called blackmail, extortion involves obtaining property or goods from another individual through unethical means. This may include force, threats, etc.
Hit and Run
In cases where the driver knew the accident occurred and fled, they will also face hit and run charges. Failing to stop and render aid or give information to authorities is a serious criminal offense that can result in aggravated DUI charges. The prison sentence could be as long as 30 years, depending on the case. There are additional penalties that can be levied against the defendant. This includes the permanent revocation of the defendantâ€™s driverâ€™s license. The defendant may also be required to complete community service and attend DUI school.

Property Law

Property Damage
Certain factors may elevate Tampa DUI offense charges and increase penalties, such as a of more than 0.15 percent, injuries, property damage, or the driver's refusal of a DUI test.
