Faced 17 Years in Prison Due to Drug Charges - Charges Dismissed

September 9, 2013 By Paul Wallin

“The police arrested me for possession of 4 ounces of heroin and for other illegal drug violations. The District Attorney charged me with possession and transportation of heroin for the purpose of sale and for possession of Cocaine for the purpose of sale as well. I was facing a minimum of three years in state prison, and my total exposure on all the charges was a maximum of 17 years in state prison. However, the law offices of Wallin & Klarich negotiated with the District Attorney and managed to get the transportation charge against me dismissed. In addition, they were able to amend the possession for sale charges to a straight possession. Due to the outstanding representation of Wallin & Klarich, I was eligible for a drug program and released from custody. My co-defendant, who was represented by the public defender, and who did not even have any drugs on him at the time of the arrest, went to state prison for three years. The District Attorney could have very easily prosecuted me for the alleged crimes and sent me to state prison as well. The familiarity the Wallin & Klarich attorneys have with each court combined with their aggressive representation resulted very favorable in my case. Wallin & Klarich attorneys definitely know how to achieve the best result for their clients, and I would highly recommend their representation in any criminal matter.”
