Ian Donovan Nesbeth

Attorney Ian D. Nesbeth, was my attorney on Wednesday, April 13, 2016, at 3:00 pm at the court house in Tallahassee, FL. He suggested I plea bargain because in his opinion and experience I would be found guilty. He said that I could plead to a lesser charge and not be given the points or the fee wo...uld be lower, my case was driving carelessly. However, I was sure that I would get off because I was the person hit in the accident and not the witness. There were no witnesses, it was my word against the witness of the other vehicle. Attorney Nesbeth tried to persuade me to plead down but I was determined to say what I thought happened in the accident. He listened to what I wanted, and I wanted to go to court and not plead guilty to a lesser fine. Then the judge called my name, the police officer spoke first about the accident I was involved in. Then Attorney Nesbeth could then speak on my behalf. Due to the police officer neglecting to specify the district the accident took place, my Attorney Nesbeth asked for a dismissal because the officer didn't prove that the accident took place in Leon County. Without an attorney present with me, I wouldn't have known the technical problem and I would have been found guilty. However, thanks to Attorney Nesbeth being my representative, and his careful attention to the description of the accident report from the police officer, the charge was dropped immediately due to the Attorney's attentiveness to my case. I would definitely not go into court without Attorney Nesbeth; I was smart enough to know that. I would recommend him to anyone seeking counsel.
