The importance of negotiations using experienced lawyer

Having been a prosecutor for 30 years I have seen how important it is to have an experienced lawyer who can obtain a favorable settlement for the client. I recently took over a case where a well known lawyer did not do this for his client. The client was convicted after a trial and was given a life sentence.

The client successfully won an appeal. I took over the case after the appeal. I was able to get the client released from prison and placed on probation.
