My Assault Charges Got Dismissed

August 7, 2013  | Paul Wallin

“I had an argument with my neighbor after she yelled at my son for going into her yard to retrieve his ball. She called the police and advised them that I had assaulted her. I hired Wallin & Klarich to represent me, as I proclaimed my innocence. My attorney at Wallin & Klarich handled my case and was able to point out to the District Attorney the problems with the case. Wallin & Klarich was able to get the assault charges dismissed against me. I would recommend the services of Wallin & Klarich to you if you want an attorney that is very familiar with the courts, has a good reputation in these courts and will fight for you.”

Assault Charges Reduced to Small Fine

August 7, 2013  | Paul Wallin

“When I was charged with assault I knew I had serious problems. So I hired the law firm of Wallin & Klarich to represent me. Due to my ongoing medical problems, the case was dragged on for a long time. After several months, my attorney was able to convince the District Attorney’s office to substantially reduce the charges. I pleaded guilty to disturbing the peace (an infraction), and paid a small fine. Thank you Wallin & Klarich for helping me with my legal problems. I would recommend your services to anyone who finds themselves in this type of difficult situation.”

Battery Charges Result in Counseling Class Sentence

August 7, 2013  | Paul Wallin

“I retained the services of Wallin & Klarich after I was arrested for battery in May 2000 in Pasadena, California. I met with my attorney to discuss my case and found him to be honest, highly professional as well as very personable. He discussed my case with me thoroughly and I left his office feeling at ease and confidant enough in him to make any and all professional judgements on my behalf.

Although it was my first offense, the Pasadena District Attorney’s office filed two charges of battery against me in June. I was facing a possibility of Incarceration and/or fines. Because my attorney was experienced and familiar with the court where my case was pending, he was able to negotiate a resolution with the District Attorney. I received no jail time, no fines and my case was dismissed after I completed a short-term counseling class. I would like to extend my gratitude to Wallin & Klarich for having such a knowledgeable and skilled attorney on your staff.”

Teacher Arrested for Alleged Assault on Student - No Charges Filed, No Court Appearance Needed

August 7, 2013  | Paul Wallin

“Recently I used the services of attorneys at the law firm of Wallin & Klarich. I was referred to this law firm by CTA after my arrest. A student alleged that I had assaulted him and I was subsequently arrested. In my initial consultation with Mr. Klarich the allegations were discussed and I retained the services of Wallin & Klarich. I was facing misdemeanor charges, which could have resulted in one year’s incarceration in the County jail, fines and the loss of my job as a teacher. In spite of the seriousness of the situation, I feel confident that my case was in the hands of the competent and knowledgeable attorneys. My attorney spoke with me, responded promptly to my calls, and kept me informed of all actions and the status of my case. My attorney met with the District Attorney on several occasions; advised me on the submission of statements of others and myself, and spoke with the investigating detective. Because of these ongoing and persistent efforts by Wallin & Klarich on my behalf no charges were ever filed and no Court appearance was required.”

Wallin and Klarich Get Charges Dropped and No Strikes

August 7, 2013  | Paul Wallin

“Thank you for the wonderful job that you have done on behalf. When I was arrested in May of this year, I was very frightened. I was charged with “assault with a deadly weapon” and if convicted, I was looking at not only a strike (as in three strikes and you’re out) but also some serious jail time. The legal representation from Wallin & Klarich was outstanding. The tactics used by my attorney persuaded the court to dismiss all charges. I am forever thankful to Wallin & Klarich.”

Weapon Assault Trial Leads to No Felony Record

August 7, 2013  | Paul Wallin

“I sold some furniture, to friend at the time, who later refused to pay the balance owing. I later approached him to discuss the money owed and he started a big fight. I then defended myself. I was arrested for felony assault with a deadly weapon because I won the fight he started when I returned a blow that connected and knocked him down. The District Attorney would not offer anything less than a felony, Wallin & Klarich took the case to trial and won, allowing me to work and live with no felony record.”

Assault With Deadly Weapon Charges Result in No Jail and Clean Record

August 7, 2013  | Paul Wallin

“I have a neighbor who was harassing me, coming onto my property without permission and riding his bicycle on my property. I was ultimately charged with assault with a deadly weapon but the District Attorney’s office did not file charges until almost two years later. I hired Wallin & Klarich and they recalled my warrant and got my case dismissed due to the District Attorney’s violation for lack of a speedy trial. Wallin & Klarich kept me out of jail and kept my record clear.”
