Armed Robbery with a Firearm/ False Imprisonment/Kidnapping (Facing Life in Prison)
FACTS: The young female client had a severe drug addiction that almost killed her. As a result, out of desperation, she met up with a couple other people who got her involved in a scheme to manipulate another person and hold him a gun point for hours. The client was originally represented by a court appointed public defender. Because the client was facing life in prison, the family decided to get involved and called Hager & Schwartz, PA to represent her.
RESULT: Attorney Brett Schwartz created a defense strategy that got the client out of custody and back with her family in less than 12 months.
