  • North Carolina v. J.S.: Our client, who was a high-level employee for a major retailer, was falsely accused of embezzling merchandise from her company totaling more than $15,000. After reviewing the State’s evidence and determining that there were multiple deficiencies in the police investigation, our firm performed an independent investigation of the facts that led to the discovery of a key defense witness whose testimony completely exonerated our client of any wrongdoing. Upon presenting this witness’ sworn testimony to the assigned prosecutor, all charges against our client were promptly dismissed.

Plea to 2nd Degree Burglary with Probation

  • Charge: Felony 1st Degree Burglary, 2 Counts Assault Government Official, Larceny, Consume Alcohol <21, Carrying Concealed Weapon, and Simple Possession Marijuana (Juvenile Court)
  • Facing: Juvenile Detention until 19th Birthday
  • Result: Plea to 2nd Degree Burglary with Probation
  • North Carolina v. D.P.M.: Our client was only 15 years old when he was caught by police in a severely intoxicated state after breaking into an occupied residence at night and stealing a flat screen TV among other items. Given that he was already on juvenile probation at the time of the offense, our client faced a very real possibility of a juvenile court judge separating him from his family and committing him to a juvenile detention facility. Over a period of almost 6 months while the case was pending, our firm continuously worked to help restore the client’s reputation by helping him and his family gain access to appropriate community resources, which ultimately led to a marked improvement in the client’s school attendance, grades, and respect for his parents’ rules. As a result, the District Attorney’s Office agreed to allow the client to plead to a reduced charge, and our firm successfully argued over the course of two dispositional hearings that the client should receive juvenile probation rather than detention.
