A respected community figure was accused of assaulting a youth in an altercation and faced jail time and damage to his reputation. But Krizman Law’s investigation revealed holes in the alleged victim’s story, and we prepared aggressively to take the case to trial.
The juvenile said our client struck him, threw him to the ground, and took his phone. The prosecutor in Jefferson County charged him with child abuse and assault and was offering 30 days in jail. But the Krizman team dug into the evidence and discovered lies the alleged victim had told.
Even so, the taking of the juvenile’s phone would be hard to defend in court. We leveraged our relationships with the district attorney’s office to set up a meeting, where we could present the facts outside the theatrics of the courtroom.
It worked. The felony charges were dropped. Our client accepted an unsupervised deferred judgment of 9 months on a telephone obstruction charge. He agreed to 16 hours of community service. As a result, he will not be dogged by a heat-of-the-moment incident.
