People v. MM
Our Client was charged with a DUI. Because he refused to take a breath test, his license was summarily suspended by statute and he was not permitted to drive. We demanded a hearing to rescind that Statutory Summary Suspension. At the hearing, the prosecution failed to meet their burden of proof and our request to have our Client's driving privileges reinstated was granted. The Statutory Summary Suspension was granted!
People v. GG
Our Client was charged with Driving on a Revoked or a Suspended License. His license was suspended for failure to pay child support. According to our Client, he never received any notice that his license was suspended and did not know that it was suspended. The prosecution was initially offering jail time. After retaining our services, our firm zealously advocated on behalf of our Client over several court dates. We eventually set the case for trial. Because the prosecution realized how serious we were, they changed their tune the day of trial. We were able to negotiate a deal that avoided any additional jail time for our Client.

On the day of trial, the prosecution agreed to dismiss all counts except the Damage to Property. Our Client received supervision and avoided a conviction on her record.
CW v. AW
Our Client was facing a Civil Order of Protection. It was alleged that our Client inappropriately touched the penis of his minor step-child. The mother filed for an Order of Protection against our Client. Our Client always maintained his innocence of the accusation so we objected to the Judge granting the Petitioner's request for an Order of Protection. We set the case for hearing, and we were successful. The Order of Protection was dismissed!

Client was charged with Domestic Battery. Client has an extensive criminal history. Two police officers claim to have witnessed Client punching his girlfriend in the face multiple times.

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.
