Questions & Answers
Please describe a case in the last year or two where you made a big difference.
My client was charged with a serious criminal sexual conduct offense, where the alleged victim was a 7 year-old step child. The child provided interviews and statements alleging that my client had touched her in a sexual manner, and that it significantly affected her life. The case went to felony jury trial, and only on cross examination did the 7 year-old "victim" admit that it was a lie and that her mother made her stick with the story. My client was acquitted, and went from facing a lengthy prison sentence for a false charge, to living a full and happy life.
