Ryan Evan Hill

I faced criminal charges for trespassing but there was much more to it then that. He followed through on the initial case, and related cases, that followed from the way I was treated by the arresting officer and a based judge. I was a police brutality victim who was convicted of trespassing in th...e 36th District Court in spite of the fact that I wasn't breaking any law, and I was at my place of employment in an area that was open to the general public. The law didn't even match the circumstances or my alleged behavior. We were even able to show that the prosecution's primary witness perjured herself. The arguments he made at the bench trial were flawless and backed by evidence and case law. My conviction was only possible because we ended up with a judge who was not interested in the letter of the law, facts or logic. He appealed the guilty verdict to circuit court and left no stone unturned. The judge appeared to understand the arguments, but then took several months longer than she had first indicated before finally responding with a ruling. The denial failed to address any of Ryan's arguments while only regurgitating statements by the prosecution. I believe she would have overturned the verdict if she gave the ruling with Ryan's oral arguments fresh on her mind, or if she had read over the appeal thoroughly. One unexpected consequence of the flawed verdicts was that Crime Victims Services asked me to refund money paid to me as a result of the assault by the officer on me. Ryan successfully argued that the guilty verdict against me, did not absolve the assaulting officer of responsibility and I was able to keep the money. He also moved forward with a civil case that was resolved in my favor, even though the criminal conviction made this effort more challenging. Once he takes on a case he follows it through to the finish. In addition to the aforementioned sequence of cases, he and members of his firm have gotten traffic tickets against me dismissed.
