State v. JT

Charge

Gross Sexual Assault

Result

A hopeful connection turned into a nightmare for our client, accused of sexual assault. The alleged victim’s conflicting accounts and a flawed investigation led to a 5-year legal ordeal. The accuser’s credibility crumbled under cross-examination, revealing a history of inconsistency. The jury, after a 4-day trial, delivered a NOT GUILTY verdict. The impact of these false accusations was profound—my client lost his job, became homeless, and endured personal tragedy. The toll on his life, irreversibly changed, emphasizes the devastating consequences of false accusations. While grateful for the verdict, the cost of those lost years and personal losses remains immeasurable.

State v. EG

Charge

OUI Refusal

Result

Our out-of-state client faced OUI charges in Maine after a long workday with minimal sleep. He drank three beers, attributing any appearance of intoxication to exhaustion rather than alcohol. Case went to trial on the theory that what the officer observed and mistook for intoxication was actually exhaustion. The client’s credible testimony about his exhausting day resonated with the jury. The officer in this case was experienced but wilted under a lengthy cross-examination that focused on poorly administered and scored field sobriety tests as well as issues that he failed to notate in his report that pointed towards actual innocence and sobriety. The jury delivered a verdict of NOT GUILTY.

State v. BA

Charge

OUI Refusal

Result

In this OUI case, our client faced both a BMV hearing and a trial. We challenged the arresting officer’s lack of knowledge regarding key facts of the case during the BMV hearing, resulting in the rescinding of a 275-day suspension. Building on this success, we took the same theory to trial, emphasizing the officer’s poor administration of field sobriety tests to the NHTSA standard. A key component for the not guilty verdict was the initial work and cross examination of the officer done at the previous BMV hearing. The jury delivered a NOT GUILTY verdict, highlighting the importance of employing thorough defense strategies at different stages of the legal process.
