Case Dismissed

Charged with domestic violence

Domestic Violence

Downey Courthouse. My client was charged with domestic violence in violation on Penal Code section 243(e)(1).

Charged with being drunk in public

Criminal Defense

Long Beach Courthouse

Our client was arrested and charged with being drunk in public in violation of Penal Code section 647(f), resisting a police officer in violation of Penal Code section 148, and battery on an officer in violation of Penal Code section 243(b). Using the discovery process, we acquired the body camera footage. Using the footage, we were able to show that our client never intended to assault the officers. Further, we were able to mitigate the circumstances surrounding her intoxication and charge of resisting. Thus, we were able to get our client diversion, with some community labor. Once diversion is complete, the case is dismissed.

Case Dismissed

Assault and battery

Domestic Violence

Our client was accused of an assault and battery in violation of Penal Code section 242 in a Long Beach club. The claim was that he assaulted another person on the dance floor. Our investigation showed that he was a victim as well. Our interviews of other witnesses revealed that a large altercation broke out between several people and our client was knocked to the floor. Working with the Long Beach City Prosecutor’s Office, we were able to get the case dismissed.

No criminal charges filed

Firearm in airport

Gun Charges

Long Beach Courthouse

Our client brought a firearm into the airport. He lawfully owned the firearm, and had a lawful permit to carry the weapon. However, permits to carry a firearm still do not permit bringing the weapon into an airport. He had forgotten he had the firearm in his computer bag and mistakenly brought the item with him to the airport. He had no criminal record of any kind, but was now facing misdemeanor criminal charges. We were able to get him pre-filing diversion with community labor

Case Dismissed

Misdemeanor sexual battery

Domestic Violence

Long Beach Courthouse

On a weekend night out, our client drank too much and found himself in an altercation with a woman. She alleged that he had touched her inappropriately. Ultimately, he was charged with a misdemeanor sexual battery in violation of Penal Code section 243.4, an offense that would require the client to register as a sex offender if convicted. We were able to use video footage of the incident to show this was a terrible misunderstanding and mitigate the incident. Our client received diversion and community labor.

Case Dismissed

Accused of sexual assault

Sex Crimes

Long Beach Courthouse

My client was a male nurse working in a local hospital. He was accused of sexually assaulting a fellow nurse while at work. We did extensive investigation, including subpoenaing the hospital’s own investigation. We were able to show the accuser’s story was filled with false claims and inaccuracies. Further, he account of the assault made little sense. Finally, we exposed that she had a motive to falsely accuse our client. Our client was innocent and we achieved the result to match.

No criminal charges filed

When our client’s car was involved in a hit and run collision, he was suspected to have committed the offense. It was alleged that he hit a parked car in violation of Vehicle Code section 20002, a misdemeanor. We were able to work with law enforcement to clear up the matter, have the auto insurance cover the damage, and avoid any criminal charges.
