Criminal Defense

Our St. Johns County criminal defense lawyers have the experience and skills to help individuals accused of committing a crime. We provide free consultations to discuss your charges, particular circumstances, background, the criminal court process, and our opinion of what to expect in your case. We are straight to the point and bluntly honest when it comes to discussing your possible resolutions. We look for your legal arguments and also any mitigation in your personal circumstances that can help in the negotiation of the best possible plea offer from the state. Then, we review that plea offer and the state’s evidence with our clients for the client to decide whether to accept that offer or proceed to trial. Our criminal defense attorneys based in St. Johns County are here to help if you have been accused of committing a crime, including any of the following:

Family Law

He provides an honest and direct assessment of your situation, explains what your options are, what the possible results are, and will then fight to get you those results. Whether you are looking to get a divorce, get a time-sharing schedule with your children, change terms that are already in place from a prior court order relating to alimony, child support or time sharing, or relocate, Sung is here to help.

Wills, Trusts and Estates

Alyssa Shorstein has been drafting estate plans and handling probate/trust administrations for clients since 2009 when she opened her own firm. At the University of Florida Law School, she earned an additional Certificate in the area of Estates & Trusts Practice. She prides herself on providing estate plans and the peace of mind that comes with the knowledge that you made sure you did everything you could for your family.

  • Estate Planning
    For Estate Planning, Alyssa works with her clients to create a plan that works the best for each client’s needs. In her initial consultation, she will explain the different estate plan options, and after getting to know the individual’s circumstances and wishes provides her opinion on what would best suit the individual’s needs. Once the client selects the plan of their choosing, then we schedule their review and signing appointments. Alyssa does an in-depth review of each document before sending them home with you to review on your own. She ensures that you understand and are confident in your plan before you sign them.
  • Probate/Trust Administration
    If a loved one has passed away and there are assets in their individual name or in their trust’s name, then those assets will need to be properly administered, or passed on, to the beneficiaries. In your consultation, Alyssa will explain the steps that will be needed in your specific situation. Then, as your attorney, she will be there step by step along the way until the process in completed.
