Description: Our client was charged with Filing False Statements with a municipality. These charges had severe consequences including a $5,000.00 fine. Through our investigations, experience, and strategies, we made strategic determinations that forced the State to reassess the strengths of their case. Based on the strengths of our efforts, it helped force the State to reassess their case. Ultimately the State agreed to downgrade the charge to a local ordinance. Client was sentenced to pay $1,000 fine. We saved our client from having a conviction for Filing False Statements and we saved the client $4,000.00 in fines.
