After retaining our services, our firm zealously advocated on behalf of our Client over several court dates. We eventually set the case for trial.

People v. JR
Our Client was charged with Felony Possession of a Controlled Substance. While fighting that case, she failed to come to court for a scheduled court appearance. The Judge issued a NO BAIL warrant for her arrest. Later, the Police arrested her for another Felony Possession of a Controlled Substance case. Because our Client picked up the 2nd case while on bond for the 1st case she was facing consecutive prison sentences of 2-6 years in prison. Needless to say, the Judge was not happy with her for not coming to court, picking up a warrant, and picking up a new case. However, were were able to successfully negotiate a deal with the prosecution to resolve both cases with probation. Our Client was able to avoid prison, and if she successfully completes the probation, she can ask the Court to remove the convictions from her record like they never happened!
People v. MB
Our Client was charged with Felony Unlawful Use of a Weapon by a Convicted Felon. He had 5 prior Felony Convictions. The Police served a search warrant on our Client's house. Our Client was the target of the Search Warrant. When the Police searched the house, they recovered a firearm under a bed. The police claimed that they knew the bedroom where the gun was recovered from belonged to our Client because they found some mail bearing our Client's name and a Social Security Card belonging to our Client in the same bedroom. Therefore, according to the Police, the gun must've belonged to our Client. Although, there were multiple other individuals present, our Client was not present at the time the Police were searching the house and was only arrested weeks later. The Prosecutors offered the maximum sentence of 7 years in prison to settle the case. Naturally, we rejected that offer and took our Client's case to trial. The verdict was Not Guilty.
