Proven Strength In Resolving Complex Litigation

Other successful case resolutions include:
- A district attorney dropped five charges against a teenager accused of attempted murder during a drug deal, after the victim’s account of the shooting contradicted the police investigation.
- A New Mexico judge dropped several counts of sex abuse against a Louisiana man accused of assaulting a teenage relative.
- A state district judge nullified the civil asset forfeiture of an Albuquerque couple’s car after their daughter took it to a friend to be repaired, and the friend turned out to be a man with a revoked license and multiple DWI convictions who was caught speeding in the car.
