Domestic violence rampage in Queens with property damage and assault eventually dismissed
2013
Lance’s client had an angry argument with a former romantic partner
and, while intoxicated, allegedly damaged the ex’s car causing thousands
of dollars of damage and bit, scratched, and assaulted the ex-partner causing
physical injury. This client consulted with another lawyer who then referred them to us for a
case evaluation. After reviewing the case file and speaking with the prosecutor, we immediately
applied for a special deal to have the case dismissed given some of the
mitigating information we provided to the prosecutor and we agreed to
obey an order of protection. The case was successfully resolved without
a trial and with a deal to have it dismissed as long as the order of protection
was obeyed and as long as our client stayed arrest-free for 6 months. (ACD)
