Chartier & Nyamfukudza, P.L.C. is proud that our team has achieved positive outcomes for so many deserving clients. Please keep in mind that the success of any case depends on the unique circumstances of each case. We cannot guarantee future results based on past successes we have achieved.
C&N’s client received an ignition interlock violation, which resulted in a revocation of his license. After the Secretary of State hearing officer upheld the revocation, Marisa appealed this ruling to the circuit court. Marisa’s petition and oral argument persuaded the court to rule in our client’s favor, granting the reinstatement of his license.
C&N’s client was a high school student who was charged with domestic violence. Marisa was able to investigate the case, including speaking with the complainant, to determine what was best for the juvenile client’s rehabilitation. Marisa then advocated to the court on behalf of the client, arguing that he should be place on the consent calendar. After he successfully completed the agreed upon terms, the court declined to authorize the petition against our client. C&N’s client can now complete high school and continue working on himself with no criminal record.
C&N’s client was a graduate student who was accused of criminal sexual conduct by a woman. Marisa vigorously challenged these claims at a hearing, and the resolution officer determined that our client was not responsible for violating university policy.
Years ago, C&N’s client received a felony conviction for criminal sexual conduct in the fourth degree. He reached out to C&N in hopes of setting aside this conviction. Marisa applied her knowledge of the intricacies and exceptions of the Clean Slate Act to this case. At the expungement hearing, Marisa showed that our client’s behavior warranted setting aside his conviction and this was consistent with the public welfare. The application was granted, and our client now lives without a criminal record.
C&N’s client was sentenced in federal court as a career offender. Mary had challenged this designation at sentencing and appealed the court’s decision on career offender status to the Sixth Circuit. The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals agreed that C&N’s client had been improperly sentenced as a career offender, and he was resentenced without that serious designation.
C&N’s client was a college student accused of criminal sexual conduct by a long-time friend. C&N promptly started contacting witnesses and gathering tangible evidence to establish the implausible nature of the potentially life altering claims. Takura quickly contacted the detective and remained in close contact with the client and his family. Armed with information that C&N had gathered, the prosecutor ultimately decided not to issue charges. Our client can continue his education without the prospect of false claims throwing him off course.
C&N’s client was charged with criminal sexual conduct in the first degree. If convicted, he faced a mandatory minimum sentence of 25 years in prison. Mary and Marisa worked tirelessly to investigate the claim. Ultimately, the case was resolved with a plea to a high court misdemeanor and no jail time.
A criminal defense lawyer was charged with witness intimidation for merely doing their job and interviewing a potential witness. The only intimidation that actually occurred was by the government when C&N’s client was charged with a felony in an attempt to get the lawyer to back down from their zealous advocacy in defending a murder case. Mary immediately began investigating the case and was able to show that no crime had occurred here, and the felony charge against C&N’s client was dismissed. Our client can now continue to fulfill their constitutional obligations without the threat of government prosecution.
Takura, Marisa, and Nicole were in trial for three weeks defending C&N's client who was accused of sexually assaulting his two daughters for several years. The trial team was able to show the motive that both complainants had to make false claims. The jury found our client not guilty on three counts and there was a hung jury on the remaining five. Following delivery of the verdict, our client shared that he had not smiled in three years!
C&N’s client was accused of domestic violence and criminal sexual conduct by a former girlfriend. Mary and Takura got to work, and the C&N team began to investigate the circumstances surrounding these claims. It became apparent that the complainant was trying to get out of her own legal trouble by making these claims and was hoping to receive a settlement in a civil suit now that C&N’s client had moved on and was no longer providing her with money. After providing this evidence to the prosecutor, the case was dismissed and our client can now move on and enjoy his life.
