Criminal, DUI, &
Traffic Cases

Client was indicted for second-degree felony burglary of a habitation, a charge that could conclude in 2 to 20 years imprisonment. During initial investigations, Client and two other alleged suspects who we are not representing, each admitted to committing the burglary of an unoccupied home while on winter break. The collected statements include that several firearms and a corresponding gun safe was stolen, as well as miscellaneous other items.

After speaking with Client we saw that the Client is remorseful for committing the criminal activity. Client, who is only 20 years old, is intelligent, resourceful, and hopeful of finishing his educational degree and starting a professional career later in life. Any conviction would certainly create a serious hindrance to leading a normal life with gainful employment.

In less than four months, We created a pretrial diversion agreement and presents it to the District Attorney assigned to the case. It was accepted, despite the charges already having been filed. Client and unrepresented defendants are each granted the pretrial diversion agreement and held to its standards.

Instead of facing trial, criminal charges, and potential prison time, Client only needs to complete 24 hours of community service and theft intervention program. If pretrial agreements are not met, the District Attorney can refile the same charges against Client. We are confident that the Client will finish pretrial agreements without incident and was quoted as saying that Client is a “great kid.”
