Case Results

CRIMINAL DEFENSE

• Felony Drug Charges – Our client was facing over a decade in prison upon conviction of felony drug charges. After declining the State’s offer and invoking the client’s right to a preliminary hearing, the charges were dismissed entirely by the judge after cross-examining multiple witnesses and shedding light on exculpatory evidence.
• Felony Drug Charges – The charges against our client, who was a college student at the time, were ultimately dismissed.
• Second Degree Murder – After a thorough and lengthy investigation and multiple rounds of negotiations, the charges were significantly reduced, and our client was placed on probation.
• Aggravated Assault – Dismissed by agreement after successful negotiations.
• Aggravated Domestic Assault – Our client was facing the possibility of significant time behind bars, not to mention a felony on their otherwise flawless record. After a preliminary hearing was held and cross-examination ensued, the court significantly reduced the charges to misdemeanor false imprisonment.
• Driving Under the Influence – The case was dismissed by agreement after a thorough investigation and the presentation of proof that potentially exculpatory evidence had been lost by the State.
