It's not everyday that Sam gets to help a fellow Marine. Jeremy is a combat vet who, since he came back from Iraq, has stuggled PTSD related issues, such as trouble being in crowded buildings. That includes buildings like the revenue office and court houses. (You may see where this is heading.)
Of course, this led to numerous citations for an expired license and eventually arrests for failures to appear and driving on suspended in several counties.
Jeremy is working on his issues, and when he came into our office he was already accepted to a treatment program in Florida organized by the Wounded Warrior Program. Only problem was all of his pending tickets and court appearances, which included a couple of repeat driving on suspended offenses. (Which means mandatory jail time.)
Thanks to understanding prosecutors and judges in the 3rd and 16th Judicial District, after explaining the situation and his plan to fix it, Jeremy had most of his charges dismissed, and didn't have to go to jail. He now has his driver's license back and is on his way to Florida to get treatment that's long overdue.
Jeremy, thank you for your service and for allowing us to help you out (and talk about it on Facebook). Good luck in all you do and Semper Fidelis.
