3 Felony Counts of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon and Bodily Injury - Charges Dismissed

I was charged with 3 Felony Counts of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon and Great Bodily Injury – all serious and violent strikes. I was facing the possibility of many years in prison. My attorney David Cohn believed in my innocence and fought hard for my freedom. After fully discussing the factual details and legal defenses of my case with me and my family, he advised that we should take my case to Preliminary Hearing, and ultimately Trial, instead of settling for a plea bargain that would land me in jail with a criminal record. He was very confident that we had some powerful legal and factual issues.

Mr. Cohn was fully prepared for Preliminary Hearings, but advised me that the prosecution’s burden of proof at prelim was very slight and therefore it would be a very difficult task to get the charges dismissed at the prelim. After Mr. Cohn’s cross-examination of five witnesses and arguments to the court, the judge dismissed all charges pending against me! I am very grateful and thankful for Mr. Cohn’s hard work and dedication to my case. Thank you Wallin & Klarich.
