Excellent Attorney

I recieved two disorderly conducts and an MIP. One of the disorderlies got dropped and the other disorderly and the MIP got turned into littering tickets. I recieved no probation for anything. I am on advisement for 6 months(cant get in trouble for 6 months or my original charges come back) He did an... awesome job with my case. A lot of my friends have gotton MIP's and ALL of them have been put on reporting probation for 3 to 6 months.
