Glenn M Swiatek, Criminal Defense Attorney,PA

Reviews

Our son was arrested for aggravated battery with a deadly weapon; a second-degree felony punishable by up to 15 years in prison. To make matters worse, he also suffers with mental illness. After consulting with several criminal defense attorneys, we decided to retain Mr. Stephen Cobb and Mr. Glenn Swiatek of Florida Criminal Defense Legal Group. After our initial consultation, we felt a glimmer of hope that our son may avoid jail time and could possibly receive a treatment-based sentence. Mr. Cobb and Mr. Swiatek are experts not only in criminal law, but in criminal defense of the mentally ill. This specialty and their years of experience clearly paid off. As we remained hopeful that our son would be sentenced to time in a mental facility as opposed to prison, we were stunned to hear that the charges were dropped! This outcome was brought about only through the hard work and skilled, persuasive negotiations of Mr. Cobb and Mr. Swiatek. Prior to this point, there was no indication that the prosecutor would settle for anything less than jail time. If you are in need of top-notch criminal defense attorneys, you need look no further. The time and money we invested with Florida Criminal Defense Legal Group, was the best investment we have ever made.
After having to fire my previous lawyer, Mr. Swiatek has already done more with my case in weeks than my previous lawyer did in a year. Mr. Swiatek communicates night or day and eases my worries. He is always polite, honest and his office staff treats you with the same respect. If I could give Mr. Swiatek 6 stars I would.
Mr. Swiatek assisted my 87 year old mother who was accused of causing an accident with injuries. She was making a left turn at an intersection, when a vehicle came up from behind her and impacted the right side of her car. Thinking she had run over a speed bump, she waited for the light to change and then drove on, not knowing that her car had been hit. The other driver called the police and complained of neck pains... which led them to hunt down my mother for leaving the scene where there was a reported injury. Glenn took the case on her behalf and made an elegant and powerful argument to the judge, saying to the prosecuting attorney "this law won't work for you". The charges were dropped, and the prosecuting attorney apologized. It was a wonderful experience to see the relief on my mother's face after having been told earlier by the police officer that she should have been booked into jail for her "crime." Mr Swiatek provided a wonderful service with little preparation time - he listened well to her story and was able to quickly synthesize his argument. An excellent attorney that uses legal skill and elegant language to support his clients!
Friendly atmosphere, very clean office. Glenn was very knowledgeable and explained everything I needed to know very thoroughly. I fell very confident in Glenn and his staff.
