This week I achieved great dispositions for two of my clients:
In the first case, my client was charged with possession of a controlled substance. She was unlawfully detained so I filed a suppression motion. Two motion dates came and went because the prosecution couldn't get their act together. Finally, on the third motion date, the case was dismissed by the prosecution in the "interest of justice," which is prosecutor speak for, "yeah, you wrote a really good motion, and we know we're going to lose, so we'll just dismiss the case."
In the second, my client was charged with possession of a loaded, unregistered, firearm in public; he was looking at a minimum of 4 months in jail and a felony conviction. I resolved his case for a misdemeanor conviction and 30 days Cal Trans, which means he will not lose his job because of a felony conviction and/or jail time.
The above is not intended as a guarantee that the same or similar results can be obtained in every matter undertaken by the Law Office; and you should not assume that a similar result can be obtained in a legal matter of interest to you. The outcome of a particular matter can depend on a variety of factors—including the specific factual and legal circumstances, the ability of opposing counsel, and, often, unexpected developments beyond the control of any client or attorney. The above is not a guarantee or warranty of any sort.
