Florida Man Sees Terroristic Threats and Assault Charges Reduced

May 01 2020, by Michael Fienman in Arson & Property Crimes, Case Results

Attorney Fienman represented a Florida man who moved to the area to live with a woman and her two children. One evening they drank far too much and began arguing. The woman eventually called the police and accused the man of simple assault and making terroristic threats.

This put him in a serious situation and exposed him to all the consequences of a domestic violence conviction. Attorney Fienman worked fast, and at the preliminary hearing, he negotiated to have the charges drastically reduced to harassment and public drunkenness. This let his client avoid very harsh penalties associated with misdemeanor convictions and deal with the matter quickly.

The outcome of an individual case depends on a variety of factors unique to that case. Case results do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any similar or future case.
