Ferraro Law Group, PL

Divorce
Child Support
We specialize in complex family disputes, and have the experience necessary to handle your child responsibility issues, spousal and child support issues, and all other family related issues.
Child Custody and Visitation
Russell routinely litigates and tries cases related to complex financial and family disputes including those associated with dissolution of marriage, equitable distribution, child-custody and the valuation of closely held businesses.
Paternity
No. Divorce, custody and paternity cases are always determined solely by a Judge. If a trial is required, you will still present evidence and testimony to the Judge and he or she will act, in effect, as the jury in your case. The Judge has the final say and his decision will stand unless you can demonstrate that he or she abused their discretion.
Premarital Agreement
Spousal Support
Although each case is different and will present its own specific issues; generally a divorce will encompass one or more of the following topics: (1.) property division; (2.) alimony and support; (3.) child issues and; (4.) attorneys fees. Some of these issues may be inapplicable to your particular case (for example if you have no children in common you would not have to address children issues) but broadly speaking these are the primary areas that are litigated in a dissolution of marriage action.
Child Abuse

Criminal Defense
The Ferraro Law Group’s lawyers have been practicing criminal law on Florida’s Treasure Coast since 1974. Back then, Russell J. Ferraro, Jr. was one of 6 Assistant Public Defenders to “ride the 19th circuit” consisting of Indian River, St. Lucie, Okeechobee and Martin Counties. In those days, it was not uncommon for an Assistant Public Defender to attend a docket call in Stuart in the morning and to pick juries and conduct complete trials in the afternoon in Okeechobee the same day! In 1976, Russell J. Ferraro, Jr. became the Chief Assistant Public Defender and handled all of the appointed death penalty cases in the 19th circuit. In 2001, Russell J. Ferraro, III (R.J.) began his career as an Assistant Public Defender as well. Although Russell rarely practices in the criminal courts anymore, R.J. has dedicated a substantial percentage of his practice to criminal defense, and draws from the experience and legal knowledge that Russell obtained over the last 35 years. R.J. was selected in Super Lawyers as a “Rising Star” in the field of criminal defense.
DUI/DWI
DUI – The Ferraro Law Group dedicates a large portion of its practice to driving under the influence (sometimes called DWI) and boating under the influence (BUI). DUI/BUI laws require mandatory minimum penalties if you are convicted, which increase with each subsequent conviction. A DUI arrest can have serious implications on your ability to drive. If you have been arrested for a DUI, you should contact us immediately, as your ability to drive may have already been effected.
Traffic Violations
Criminal Traffic Offenses – these generally include misdemeanors such as driving without a valid license (NVDL), attaching unassigned tags, failing to register motor vehicles, reckless driving or driving on a suspended license (DWLS). Under certain circumstances, DWLS can become a felony offense.
Sex Crimes
Internet Crimes – Sending child pornography via email or the internet and/or sexting over cell phones is a more recent phenomenon which has resulted in prosecutions in both state and federal court. Either action could result in a label as a sex offender, which requires rigorous compliance and reporting standards.
Robbery
Burglary
Burglary – this includes going into a home, structure or conveyance without permission, with the intent to commit a crime while inside. The degree depends on what was entered and whether it was occupied or not at the time.
White Collar Crimes

Theft
Misdemeanors
The Ferraro Law Group defends clients who have been accused of committing criminal offenses in both State and Federal Court ranging from second degree misdemeanors to capital crimes. We pride ourselves in providing top quality representation at a reasonable price. We handle smaller case loads to ensure that your case gets the attention you deserve. The types of cases we routinely handle include, but are not limited to...
Drug Crimes
Drug Possession, Sale – most drug offenses include a suspension of your driver’s license if convicted, regardless of whether you were driving at the time of the alleged offense.
Assault
Assault and Battery – Assault includes threatening to do harm to an individual and having a present ability to carry out the threat. Battery is actually touching another person against their will. This could also include throwing or spitting something at someone.
Murder
After graduating from Stetson, R.J. worked for the Nineteenth Judicial Circuit’s Public Defender where he had the opportunity to defend parties accused of crimes ranging from DUI to murder. The experience and reputation that he earned in this position allowed R.J. to successfully transition into his current role as a private criminal defense attorney charged with preserving his client’s rights in both state and federal court.
Arson
Shoplifting
If you should enter a retail establishment where goods are placed on display and for sale, the merchant or the employees may detain you on the premises for a reasonable time for questioning if they have probable cause to believe that you have stolen or have attempted to steal goods for sale. Under such circumstances police officers called to the scene may make an arrest for shoplifting even though the alleged offense was not committed in the officer’s presence. Under Florida law, there are few specified misdemeanors for which an arrest may be made without a warrant, even when not committed in the presence of the arresting officer. These exceptions to the general rule include, but are not limited to, domestic violence, shoplifting and carrying a concealed weapon other than a firearm.
Restraining Order
Domestic Violence – DV can be a criminal offense and the basis for a civil injunction or restraining order. A conviction for domestic violence requires 5 days in the county jail as a minimum.
Kidnapping
Manslaughter
DUI Manslaughter – When a death results from a defendant’s driving or being in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while impaired by drugs or alcohol, the stakes are immediately raised.
Internet Crimes
Hit and Run
