Residential Burglary Charges Dismissed
Our client, a merchant marine, was on shore leave in Long Beach. He was arrested and
charged with Residential Burglary after having broke into a home and allegedly trying
steal money from the occupants. The client was being held on $300,000 bail in the
Long Beach City Jail. We were retained by the client's mother in Maine. We
immediately visited the client at the jail and opened a dialogue with the detective
investigating the case. Following numerous meetings with the District Attorney and the
Police Department, the Attorney secured the release of the client and dismissal of the
burglary charges.
Assault with Great Bodily Injury Charges Dropped
The client, a 28 year old oil refinery worker, was arrested following a fight outside a bar.
The alleged victim sustained a severe fracture beneath his eye requiring metal plates
and surgery. Our client asserted that he was acting in self defense in the altercation.
The District Attorney in Westminster wanted 1 year jail and a plea to a strike offense.
We believed the client and undertook an extensive investigation, obtaining exculpatory
witnesses to support our theory of defense. After a nearly year long fight, the DA caved
in and offered a misdemeanor with no jail time on March 4, 2008.
Domestic Violence charges dropped
Our client was arrested near the Queen Mary by Long Beach Police after a security
guard reported witnessing the client assault his wife during an argument. The attorney
went to Court and convinced the Prosecutor to drop the domestic violence charges and
a deal was worked out for a disturbing the peace as an infraction in February of 2008.
Drunk Driving, Resisting Arrest, Open Container and Driving on
Suspended License Charges Dismissed
In March of 2007 our office was successful in getting all charges dismissed for our client
a 28 year old construction worker. The Long Beach Police arrested him and he
submitted a breath test of .11%, nearly 1 1/2 times the legal limit. The city prosecutor
agreed to dismiss all charges on the day of trial.
Spousal Abuse Charges Dropped
Our client, a parolee, was charged with inflicting injury on his wife in the parking lot of
the Pike in downtown Long Beach. The client insisted the charges were false. We set
the case for trial and were able to convince the prosecutor to drop the charges which
did not require him to attend domestic violence counseling or be on probation.
Armed Robbery and Kidnapping Charges Dropped
Our client, a juvenile, was arrested along with three of his friends in a stolen vehicle.
The police alleged the client drove the vehicle out of the storage lot in Long Beach
harbor after tying up and forcing the security guard to relinquish the keys by pointing a
gun in his face. We believed the Police made a mistake and the client was the victim of
a false identity. After a number of Court appearances, the Attorney convinced the
District Attorney to drop all felony charges including the robbery and kidnapping.
Rape Charges Dismissed, Client Released from Jail
Our client, a 25 year old construction worker, was arrested by the LAPD Harbor Division
following rape accusations by a 17 year old girl. Our client insisted the sex was
consensual and the girl simply felt guilty after her friends found out about the
encounter. The Attorney immediately began an investigation which included
interviewing witnesses and presented the case to the Detective in charge. As a result of
the attorney's involvement, all charges were dropped against the client and he was
released from jail before he ever appeared in Court.
Felony DUI with Injury, Charges Dismissed
Our client, a casual longshoreman, was driving in San Pedro and ran through a red light
colliding with a car and injuring the driver. Both vehicles were totaled. The LAPD
harbor Division responded and arrested our client for felony driving under the influence,
a breath test revealed a .19% blood alcohol level. The client's family retained our
office. We knew if the client was convicted of the felony he would lose his license for a
year, be sentenced to prison and lose his job on the dock. With this in mind, the
Attorney met with the prosecutor and negotiated a dismissal of the Felony charges, the
client was released from jail and saved his drivers license and his job.
Lewd Act in Public Charges Dismissed
Our Client, a school teacher, was arrested by the Long Beach Department and charged
with a violation of Penal Code 647b, committing a lewd act in a public restroom. A
conviction of the offense would mean termination of his employment, jail time and a
permanent scar on his criminal record. Understanding this, we prepared a defense
which included, among other things, an illegal arrest and was able to convince the
Prosecutor to drop the charge. The client kept his job.
Solicitation of Prostitution Charges Dropped
Our client, a business executive in Palos Verdes, was arrested during a "sting"
operation by the Long Beach Police Department. A conviction of the offense would not
only be an extreme embarrassment but would result in mandatory AIDS testing and
counseling as well as probation. Our office met with the prosecution and arranged to
have the solicitation for prostitution charges dropped and a deal was struck for a
trespassing with no testing, counseling or conviction for the solicitation.
Hit and Run Charges Avoided due to early intervention by Attorney
The client had been drinking at a bar in Long Beach and collided with a median while
entering the 710 freeway, the client had sustained a prior conviction for hit and run and
was on probation for that offense. We were contacted early after the incident and were
able to give the client good advice on what and what not to do such as exercising the
right to remain silent. The client followed our advice and no criminal Hit and Run
charges were brought and the vehicle was released from the police impound yard. In
addition, the insurance company paid for the loss without issue in March of 2008.

Client was arrested for forcible rape of his ex-girlfriend's daughter shortly after he
ended the relationship. Client, a 30 year old male, had been to prison before and was
facing a 25 to life sentence if convicted. Our theory of the case was the 15 year old girl
was lying and pressured to make the allegation by the client's ex-girlfriend following their
bitter break up. During the preliminary hearing the Attorney exposed a number of
inconsistencies in the young girl's testimony. In addition, Counsel discovered the girl
had mental issues and sought to discover her psychiatric records. After fighting the
case for nearly a year, the District Attorney agreed to strike 2 of the client's prior strikes,
dismiss the rape charges and allow a plea to a much lower charge of unlawful sexual
intercourse.
Possession of Pirated DVD's and Counterfeit CD's - Case Dismissed
Client, a Convenience Store Owner, was arrested in Long Beach and charged with a
number of criminal offenses arising from the possession and sale of fake music tapes
and CD's, along with pirated DVD movies. The prosecution was vigorous due to the
large amount of grant money provided to the law enforcement agencies from the music
and movie industry. Our defense was that the client had no actual knowledge that the
contraband was illegally produced. After numerous Court appearances and defense
motions, the case was dropped, all counterfeit charges dismissed.
