Aggravated harassment case in queens dismissed

2010

Our client contacted us because the police called him and wanted to “speak with” him about his ex-wife’s complaint that he had threatened to kill her over the phone and by text message. We recognized his situation right away as one in which the police planned to arrest him. We protected our client’s rights during the arrest process and mounted a vigorous defense in court. Our client was charged with aggravated harassment. Based on our review of our client’s phone records, we saw that the complainant was clearly lying about certain things and exaggerating others. After lengthy negotiations with the Queens District Attorney, we got a deal to get our client’s case completely dismissed as long as he obeyed a six month order of protection. So, all charges ultimately dropped, case dismissed, no criminal record.
