RESULTS: Non-Convicted Probation – First Degree Felony Unlawful Possession Reduced

A non-violent client in a rural county faced dire consequences after being arrested for Unlawful Possession of a Firearm by Felon. Despite a history of drug-related offenses, our client had no record of violence or firearm charges. Nonetheless, the State automatically pushed for prison time due to his past actions.

Our Approach

Recognizing the severity of the state’s stance, our team meticulously reviewed the case details. We listened to our client’s story, understanding the context and the circumstances leading to his arrest.

We then presented a compelling case to the State, advocating for a fair and just outcome that reflected the true intent behind the law.

The Victory

Our efforts paid off. Through dedicated investigation and strategic negotiation, we secured a non-convicted probation for our client.

This outcome not only prevented unjust prison time but also aligned with the principle of justice, respecting both the legal system and the individual’s circumstances.
