Prosecutors often leave
you no choice. They give you one option- plead to the drunk driving. That's it. And let's be honest, it's not much
of a choice. That was exactly what HC was presented with when charged with OWI.
Unfortunately, an OWI conviction would be devastating to HC. She possessed a commercial
driver's license and owned a trucking company. A conviction meant
catastrophe for her business and livelihood. After substantial research, she reached out to
our firm and sat down with Attorney Sarvan Singh. She presented her paperwork,
which included a blood test of .198. Attorney Singh appealed to the prosecutor.
Given how much HC stood to lose if convicted, it seemed only right to amend the
charge. Unfortunately, the prosecutor dug in and forced the matter to jury trial. At
trial, Attorney Singh made quick work of the prosecution's witnesses and then
obliterated their case in his closing. It was a convincing argument as the jury
came back with a not guilty verdict on both counts. After the verdict was read,
HC could not stop crying with joy. As she repeatedly said, hiring Sarvan was
one of the best decisions she had ever made.
