People v. LC
Our Client was charged with 2 connected Felony cases. One case of Felony Forgery for allegedly possessing counterfeit money and one case of Felony Theft for using counterfeit money to buy a car. Our Client was facing up to 5 years in prison for these cases. Although the cases went beyond the Preliminary Hearing Stages, we were able to negotiate a successful outcome. The prosecution agreed to a sentence of "Second Chance Probation," if our Client agreed to pay the Victim of the Theft case "real" money to replace the counterfeit money. If our Client pays the restitution and successfully completes the probation, these cases will be dismissed, will not result in felony convictions and will be immediately eligible for expungement after dismissal.
People v. JM
Our Client was charged with Armed Robbery with a Firearm and Aggravated Unlawful Restraint. The Client was facing 21-45 years in prison. It was alleged that our Client and another individual robbed a woman at gun point outside a local convenience store and stole money and a cell phone. The victim claimed to have run into the store to report the robbery. At trial, on cross-examination, the victim changed her story multiple times. The victim first claimed that our Client took money out of her pocket. Then she claimed that she threw the money on the ground and our Client picked up the dollars (about 10) one at a time while simultaneously holding the gun on the victim. In the long run, there was reasonable doubt and our Client was found Not Guilty.

Our Client then supposedly began to toss clear bags containing suspect narcotics out the window of his vehicle for no reason. It was at this point that the police stopped him. Then, our Client allegedly dropped two additional bags of suspect narcotics to the ground right in front of the police officers. Then the Police searched our Client and claimed to find even more drugs in his person. After checking our Client's background the Police discovered that his license had been revoked. We were able to have all the charges dismissed at the Preliminary Hearing.

Our Client was charged with multiple felonies: Possession with intent to deliver over 15 grams of a controlled substance; unlawful use of a weapon by a convicted felon, possession with intent to deliver over 500 grams of cannabis and possession of a controlled substance and a violation of probation for a prior gun case. Our Client was facing a mandatory prison sentence of 6 - 30 years for the narcotics and 3-10 years in prison for the guns. The police chased our Client into his house, searched the house and discovered guns, narcotics, and narcotics packaging. Then officers got a search warrant. Because of the improper procedure in getting the search warrant, we were able to convince the prosecution to drop the most serious charges. Our Client asked us to get him the minimum on the gun case which we did. We were able to resolve both the Violation of Probation for the prior case and the new case for 3 years at 50%.
