Drone Usage and Voyeurism Charges
Under Florida Statute 810.14, it's illegal to film someone in their home or apartment without their consent. Commonly referred to as the "peeping tom" law, this statute safeguards individuals from unauthorized recording or invasion of privacy.

Many drones come with built-in cameras or can be easily equipped with one, making it possible to inadvertently record people in their homes or yards while flying your drone. If law enforcement becomes involved, you may face criminal charges.

A first-time offense is a first-degree misdemeanor, carrying a maximum penalty of 1 year in jail and a $1,000 fine. If you have a previous voyeurism conviction, subsequent charges are considered third-degree felonies with a maximum penalty of 5 years in prison and a $5,000 fine.

Miami Criminal Defense Attorney Dennis Gonzalez Jr can help defend against these charges by demonstrating that your intent was simply to enjoy flying your drone around the neighborhood. By proving your intent was innocent, we can work to have the charges against you dismissed.

Freedom from Unwanted Surveillance Act
In July 2015, Florida enacted the Freedom from Unwarranted Surveillance Act (Florida Statute §934.50) to regulate drone usage. This law stipulates that drone operators can face penalties for recording images of certain individuals or properties, potentially leading to lawsuits for flying a drone over another person's property.

As with the voyeurism law, your intent is critical. To violate the Freedom from Unwanted Surveillance Act, a drone operator must intend to conduct surveillance on others, infringing on their reasonable expectation of privacy.

A significant distinction between the two laws is the type of intent required under the surveillance law. To violate this law, the intent only needs to be surveillance of another person; indecent intent is not required.

​The surveillance law exposes drone operators to civil lawsuits and potential financial penalties, including attorney fees, but does not carry criminal penalties like the voyeurism law.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"I was unjustly charged with a Felony for taking back one of my employees mobile phones after she was dismissed from her post. She called police. They arrested me, charged me with Strong Arm Robbery and I spent the next two days in jail. I hired Dennis when I was released. He took over and turned a Felony into a Misdemeanor, then a Dismissal! Thanks Dennis, for finding justice in this case!!"
