Criminal law encompasses a huge scope of possible offenses and these offenses can often be concentrated based upon location. The majority of white-collar crimes are committed in urban areas. Attorneys specializing in drug related cases have their practices centered in cities and states where drug crimes are most likely to occur. When setting up a practice as a criminal attorney Fort Lauderdale serves as an excellent example of an across the board locale. Attorneys can expect to see a wide range of prospects in South Florida area. As South Florida is considered to be a somewhat sophisticated urban environment, white-collar crimes such as insurance and mortgage fraud commonly require defense.

The Miami area still serves as a major drug entry portal to The United States. As such, drug trafficking crimes and the need for defense attorneys in this area are prevalent. As a criminal attorney, one may expect to be offered a variety of case-load. But, by carefully selecting the location one chooses to practice, one can also determine in which area of criminal law the bulk of these cases will fall.
