People v. KC
Client was charged with Attempted Murder and multiple counts of Armed Robbery and Robbery. Client was facing a life sentence. We took our Client's case to trial and prevailed. The State argued that our client was working with another individual in a drug deal gone wrong when instead of paying for the drugs, the other individual shot and stole the drugs from the seller. The Judge found that the evidenced showed that our client wasn't involved in the drug deal, robbery or shooting and that he was merely present.
People v. FG
Client was sitting in his vehicle. The police claimed the Client threw a bag of drugs on the floor of the Client's car right in front of the police officer. The police arrested our client for Felony Possession of a Controlled Substance and wrote a parking ticket and confiscated our Client's license. All the charges were dismissed at the Preliminary Hearing, including the traffic charges. Our client was released and his license was returned without so much as a fine.
People v. IL
Our Client was placed on Felony Probation for a period of 24 months.

We were able to successfully convince the Judge to terminate his probation early.

People v. BT
Our Client was charged with a Possession of a Controlled Substance, Battery and Resisting Arrest. Police Officers claim to have seen our Client about to engage in a hand to hand narcotics transaction. Allegedly, when our Client noticed the police officers, he immediately fled the scene. While running our Client allegedly dropped a bottle which contained a purple syrup liquid which was recovered by the Officers and believed to be a form of codeine.

People v. JR
Our Client was charged with Vehicular Invasion, Robbery, Aggravated Battery and Unlawful Restraint. If convicted, he faced up to 15 years in prison. The Police alleged that our Client took a ride in a taxi. Once he reached his destination, instead of paying, our Client allegedly robbed the taxi driver. The entire incident was recorded on the taxi's internal camera. Through negotiation, we were able to convince the prosecution to offer the minimum of 4 years in prison. We were not able to negotiate probation for our Client because he had a violent background with several prior felony cases including theft, residential burglaries and robberies. However, we were able to have a conference with the Judge ,and were able to convince her to offer our Client Boot Camp. The Boot Camp program is only 120 days and a far better option than 4 years in prison.
People v. AS
Our Client was on probation for a drug case when he picked up a Felony Delivery of a Controlled Substance - 1000 Feet of a School case. So our Client was facing a Violation of Probation and 4 - 15 years in prison if convicted on the new case. The Police alleged that our Client sold heroin to an undercover Police Officer during a controlled buy sting. The whole situation was under surveillance. Both the undercover buy officer and the surveillance officers claimed our Client sold drugs to the buy officer for $20 in marked police money. We were able to negotiate a deal with the prosecutors to reduce the charges and drop the 1000 Feet of a School element. This made the new case a Class 2 Felony which is punishable from 3 - 7 years in prison. However, this deal also made our Client eligible for Boot Camp. Our Client accepted this deal. The violation case was dropped and he will be out as soon as he completes the Boot Camp program!
