All Charges Dismissed 

Charges: Client charged with Rape, a B-Felony, punishable by 8-12 years in prison, which could never be removed from his record if convicted.

Result: Case dismissed. After extensive research, Scott found that the alleged victim in the case had provided false statements to the police and to the court about the events that occurred on the evening of the alleged rape. Scott eventually obtained access to various documents, including phone records and medical records, to find these inconsistencies. After negotiations with the District Attorney, all charges were dismissed the day before trial.
