About

I spent four years in the United States Marine Corps Infantry. I had the honor of serving in Mogadishu, Somalia during Operation Restore Hope and the Phillipines during the eruption of Mount Pinatubo. After the Marine Corps, I attended Washington State University and The Florida State University College of Law. Immediately upon graduation from Law School I began working for the State Attorneys Office in the State of Florida prosecuting misdemeanor and felony crimes in the 19th Judicial Circuit. In 2004, I opened the Colter Law Group wherein we defend Families, good people accused of crimes, and those injured in automobile accidents.

If you need a lawyer I would definitely recommend Tom Colter. With outstanding warrants and charges in Florida, I had to turn myself into jail and he helped me clear everything up. I live out of state, explained my case to him & he told me exactly what to do and the outcome he wanted. We planned my arrival into Florida where I turned myself in for the warrant. Tom managed to get me out of jail within 24 hours as promised! Mr Colter & his assistant Grace constantly kept me updated with information and still answer questions for me a month after my case is resolved! If it wasn’t for Colter law group I would still be eating bologna sandwiches in a cell, Thanks Tom!

Tom Colter has represented and helped me through some of the toughest times of my life over the past couple years. This is one of the most upstanding men I have ever met and words can not express how grateful I am for him and his staff for not only going before me but walking with me as well as teaching me to stand up and fight against injustice. Sometimes bad things happen that are out of our control and God uses Mr. Colter, his firm and even his family in ways that I am BEYOND grateful for. They are professional, kind and extremely gifted in all that they do. I thoroughly thank God for them on a regular basis and highly recommend Mr. Colter!

Tom and his law firm have worked professionally and efficiently in handling our case. He has been able to negotiate extensions with the prosecutor in order to give our daughter time to get her life in order and turned around for the better. Tom stays in touch with us on a regular basis and have had several face to face meetings with our family explaining all the possibilities with the case. He does not pull any punches on what the law says and what could happen with the drug charges. He very calmly lays out every scenario possible within the system and explains it very clear to all of us, including the parents. I firmly believe that this was the best choice we could hope for to defend my daughters case.

I Contacted Tom Colter for a consultation following my arrest for a third DUI. I couldn’t have made a better choice. He knows his stuff and provides realistic advice on what I needed to do to minimize my exposure to jail or prison. His confidence in his game plan gave me the piece of mind that I needed. Mr. Colter took care of everything, kept me out of court and answered all my questions. When I was finally in for court, he demonstrated his exceptional skill and expertise in front of the judge. Mr. Colter kept me out of jail and saved my future. I have no hesitation in recommending Tom to anyone arrested for DUI or any other criminal offense! His associates and assistants are top notch too.

I am very satisfied with Tom Colter and the way in which he handled my cases. Tom handled a difficult criminal and a divorce case for me. Tom explained everything to me in detail and was very generous with his time. I will always be grateful and recommend Tom to anybody with legal trouble. Tom is very helpful, kind, compassionate, knowledgeable attorney. Tom always returns calls in a timely fashion, and he even gave me his personal cell phone number so I could reach him after hours. I would highly recommend him to anyone with legal issues of any kind. Steve

I recently was in need of legal representation and contacted Colter law group. Upon reviewing situation Tom advised me of my options. I made my decision based on all pertinent information and hired him. I most likely was going to prison due to my behavior. Tom was able keep me out of prison and at home with my family due to his expertise and knowledge of the judicial system. I also feel that he really did not want me to be away from my 3 year old son, as he is a compassionate man. I am thankful that I contacted Tom and he was a straight shooter with me about my situation. I would recommend consulting the Colter Law Group for any legal needs. Tim Moriarty
