Posted by Dan | February 25, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Ended with good results.

Sylvia got assigned to my case in 2012ish for some counterfeit money I made when I was 18 young and dumb. As a 19 year old kid at the time I thought everyone gets this grand old murder style trial like you see on TV with expert witnesses and every last stone turned over. No, Sylvia told me I had ...a terrible case (which I did I was facing 4 felonies and basically admitted to doing it) fill out this ARD form, don't get arrested for a year, pay your stuff, do some community service and they'll wipe it off your record. Basically unsupervised probation, go live under a rock and don't give them a reason to look at you. She was also really nice and usually got me a continuance within the first 30mins or so of being at court which was pretty quick for all of the cases there. So here I am 10 years later with no criminal record, I vacationed in Australia the other year, my W2 form is well into the 6 figures for 2022, and I'm not a convicted felon. We have one person to thank for all of that being possible. Thank you Sylvia! The last thing you told me that day was good luck, and I think I received the luck.
