People v. JA
Our Client was charged with Aggravated Criminal Sexual Abuse. He was facing a significant prison sentence and have to register as a sex offender. It was alleged that our Client pinned his teenage step daughter down on the bed and got on top of her rubbing his erect penis between her legs. The child's mother allegedly walked in before things went any further. The prosecution made several offers to resolve the case without going to trial, but they all included our Client having to register as a sex offender. We rejected the offers and took the case to trial. At trial we were able to prove inconsistencies in the child's and mother's stories. We showed the Court that the story began as one thing and evolved to something worse each and every time is was retold. Our Client was found Not Guilty!

They claim that our Client matched the description of the man and they tried to speak with him. It was at this point that the Police say that our Client attempted to swallow what they believed to be drugs. The Police claim that our Client voluntarily spit the drugs out (the same ones he was allegedly trying to hide by swallowing) but our client said they choked him to recover the narcotics. All charges were dismissed at the Preliminary Hearing.

People v. SF
Our Client was charged with Felony Aggravated Battery of a Police Officer and DUI. Our Client was facing up to 7 years in prison. It was alleged that our Client was involved in a traffic accident. When Officers arrived on the scene they claim our Client had red, bloodshot glassy eyes, slurred speech and smelled of alcohol. Our Client allegedly failed the Field Sobriety Tests on scene and was arrested for DUI. While being transported to the station, our Client escaped from the handcuffs. When Officers attempted to re-cuff our Client, they claim she turned on her side and kicked and officer in the chest and jaw multiple times. At the station, our Client participated in a breath test showing a BAC of .199 (more than double the limit). We were able to convince the prosecution to offer our Client supervision on the DUI, avoiding a conviction. We also convinced the prosecution to reduce the Felony Aggravated Battery to a misdemeanor and offer probation on that charge as well. Another Felony Conviction avoided!!!
