Felony Drug Charge Reduced

RESULTS: Drug-related Felony Charge Reduced

When our client came to us, they were staring down the prospect of a 20-year sentence for a drug-related felony. The stakes couldn’t have been higher. Howerver at Blizzard and Zimmerman, we firmly believe that every client deserves a defense that leaves no stone unturned.

Attorney Jacob Blizard conducted a thorough and comprehensive analysis of the case. By carefully reviewing the evidence, he was able to identify several critical weaknesses in the state’s case against our client. With this leverage in hand, Jacob stood firm against the prosecution, making it clear that we were fully prepared to take the case to trial if necessary.

Faced with the uncertainty and potential risks of trial, the state opted to reduce the charges to a misdemeanor and offered our client deferred adjudication.

This outcome was life-changing for our client. By avoiding a felony conviction, they were able to move forward with their life without the long-term consequences of a felony on their record.

Now, with successful completion of probation, our client will have the opportunity to have the case dismissed entirely.
