Successful Defense Against Felony Drug Charges
In November 2018, the Law Office of Matthew W. Peterson achieved a significant victory for a misdemeanor for client charged with drug distribution. With the potential for decades in prison looming over our client, we successfully negotiated a plea that resulted in a misdemeanor conviction instead. This outcome allowed our client to avoid a felony record and continue working while remaining on probation.
Key Factors in Our Defense to Achieve Misdemeanor for Client Charged with Drug Distribution
The case involved allegations of distributing drugs to an undercover officer. By emphasizing our client’s clean criminal history, the context of the incident, and the positive steps he had taken since, we were able to persuade the court to consider a more lenient approach. As a result, our client was spared the stigma of a felony conviction and was able to maintain his freedom under probation.
