Facing a career-ending criminal conviction and potential jail time, we refused to accept a plea bargain and pushed the matter to a full trial. I aggressively contested the state’s evidence to show that the prosecution lacked proof beyond a reasonable doubt on the critical element of motor vehicle operation. First, I obtained dismissal of the additional violations on motion during the trial. Following a comprehensive bench trial before the Honorable Joseph Girardi of the Nassau County First District Court, the court returned a NOT GUILTY verdict, completely exonerating my client and saving his teaching career.
When prosecutors demand jail time and refuse to back down, your future depends on an experienced trial attorney. Text my cell directly 24/7 to put 31+ years of trial experience in your corner.
