Expertise & Efficient

Thank you to my attorney Alex King & the staff of Florida Coast Criminal Defense. I was facing fines and potential additional time in jail. After their significant expertise in mitigation and negotiation, my case was dismissed! They kept me very well informed of the process, needed information and... documents, and consistent status of my case. Thanks again to everyone!

Strongest endorsement

I highly recommend Alex to anyone facing a difficult legal situation. I was being over-prosecuted, with law enforcement constantly pressuring me, and there was a real risk of charges being filed. Alex stepped in and successfully prevented any charges from moving forward. From the beginning, Alex was... calm, responsive, and always available when I needed him. His deep knowledge of the law and the local court system was evident in every conversation. His advice was consistently accurate and thoughtful, and he went above and beyond by also providing clear guidance to my spouse during this stressful time. What truly set Alex apart was his extensive experience in the region and his professional relationships within the legal community. These allowed him to navigate the process effectively, steer things toward a favorable outcome, and keep me well-informed about what to expect next. The legal system can feel slow, confusing, convoluted, and unpredictable — everything Alex is not. He brought clarity, steadiness, and confidence when I needed it most. I’m deeply grateful for his representation and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others.

Outstanding Service

Mr King and First Coast Criminal Defense exceeded all my expectations. From start to finish, they handled my case with the utmost professionalism, dedication, and legal savvy. Their team communicated clearly, treated me with respect, and made a difficult situation far less stressful. I always felt co...nfident knowing I had knowledgeable and trustworthy advocates on my side. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of strong legal representation. Truly a five-star experience from an outstanding firm.

Super Attorneys!!

Alex King and his team are amazing! They walked me through the entire process of criminal procedure and were very attentive and always available to answer any questions I had. The entire team (Alex, Whitney, Alexis and Brock) made me feel as though I wasn’t just another case… I am a person! I’m an... ex-con with an extensive criminal history from California and was facing grand theft charges in Jacksonville. The offense carries up to 5 years in prison, 5 years of probation/parole and a lot of fines. The team at First Coast Criminal Defense managed to plea bargain for me to receive time served (1 day) and restitution for the victim of the crime. No further jail/prison time and no probation! As far as I’m concerned these guys are Super Attorneys! If you find yourself facing a criminal charge in Jacksonville, do yourself a favor and call First Coast Criminal Defense!
