How Our Firm Can Handle Your Case

There exists a common misconception that an arrest automatically labels an individual as a criminal. However, one doesn’t attain the status of a criminal until proven guilty, emphasizing that an arrest does not equate to a guilty verdict. Our approach involves various strategies to assist clients in securing a not-guilty verdict or, in some instances, achieving a case dismissal.

Potential defense challenges that may require the expertise of our firm include:

  • Constitutional violations to include:
    • Illegal Arrest
    • Improper search and seizure
  • Unavailable witnesses
  • Faulty evidence
  • Evidence favoring the defendant (exculpatory evidence)

Furthermore, beyond the pursuit of a favorable case outcome, a law firm holds the responsibility of mitigating potential harm to their client, even in the event of an unfavorable outcome. In addition to pursuing dismissal of the charges, The Johnquel Neal Firm can diligently explore options such as reduced punishment, lesser charges, and alternative sentencing, such as fines or probation.
