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.

Drug Manufacturing—Charges Dismissed by Court

A felony drug manufacturing case was dismissed based on the police unconstitutionally entering and searching a home. C&N proved this through a thorough investigation and timeline to show that the officers entered the home based on a questionable "tip" and before the warrant was issued, despite what the officers testified to in court.

Assault and Battery—Not Guilty Verdict

C&N achieved a not guilty verdict in an assault case after the jury heard evidence that the client was merely acting in self-defense.

Operating Under the Influence—Charge Dismissed

Takura secured a dismissal after he convinced a prosecutor that it would defy logic and the plain language of Michigan’s Medical Marihuana Act to proceed to trial against a registered patient charged with misdemeanor operating under the influence of a drug absent proof that marijuana actually had a significant and materially effect on his driving.

Malicious Destruction of Property—Not Guilty Verdict

It took a matter of minutes for the jury to return with a not guilty verdict in a malicious destruction of property case. The jury heard that the client may have broken the complainant’s heart, but he did not break her windows.

PPO Terminated

Takura’s advocacy resulted in a PPO being terminated after a two-day hearing because it was proven that our client was no threat at all to the petitioner.

Felonious Assault—Charge Dismissed

Takura obtained the dismissal of a felony assault charge after the preliminary examination and an investigation showed that the complaining witness lied and was the real perpetrator. Ultimately, our client’s decision to decline every plea bargain offered was more astute than the prosecutor imagined.

Assault and Battery—Not Guilty Verdict

C&N achieved another not guilty verdict after the jury heard testimony that it was actually the complaining witness who initiated the assault. She wielded a bat at a gas station then struck out in court against Takura when the jury quickly came back with a not guilty verdict.

Criminal Sexual Conduct—Charges Dismissed by Court and Prosecutor

C&N’s client was accused of multiple counts of criminal sexual conduct involving a child. Mary and Takura ran the preliminary examination, despite the prosecutor threatening to add additional charges. At the preliminary examination, the court found there was insufficient evidence to bind the client over on some of the counts. And the cross-examination of the child and her mother revealed so many flaws and inconsistencies that the prosecutor dismissed the remaining counts within a few weeks. Our client always maintained his innocence and was vindicated by the result.

Drug Distribution—Charges Dismissed

Drug charges were dismissed after a motion to dismiss was granted because the police illegally entered and searched the client’s home.

Court of Appeals Victory in CSC Case

C&N achieved an appellate victory in a criminal sexual conduct case that resulted in the convictions being reversed for a man who was wrongfully convicted of criminal sexual conduct.
