Possible Outcomes with Regard to Your Case
All cases are different, depending on the facts of your case, the following outcomes may be possible:
Immediate Communication with the State Attorney’s Office
The prosecutor has the discretion to file a lesser charge or to decide not to file a charge at all. I have had experiences where after speaking with the State Attorney’s Office, presenting them with your side of the story, names of other witnesses and evidence that supports your position they have reduced the charges or closed the case completely.
Diversion Programs
Depending on your case and your prior record, you may be able to enter into a diversion program; these programs allow your case to be dismissed by the Judge after successful completion of counseling and community service. After completion your case goes away is if it never happened.
Withholding of Adjudication
Many times your case can be negotiated for a final outcome between the Prosecutor, your Lawyer and the Judge. Even though your case will result in a sentence or probation, the withholding of the adjudication prevents a formal conviction from appearing on your record.
Plea Bargain
A plea bargain outlines the final disposition of your case, once agreed to by the Prosecutor, your Lawyer and the Judge it may be structured to avoid a formal conviction, provide for an outcome that will not affect your driver’s license or your employment and may be able to apply fines and cost to be assessed as a lien instead of a payment. Each case is different.
Trial
Sometimes your case needs to go trial, if after we have argued your motions to suppress, motions to dismiss and your charges are not dismissed or reduced, we have the experience to take your case your trial. We will use modern strategies, experts and demonstrative evidence to present your case your case to jury.
