Aaron recently represented an innocent man who was falsely accused of 3 counts of criminal sexual conduct in the first degree and strangulation. Our client maintained his innocence and that this was a consensual situation. We vigorously fought the case and prepared for trial for over 6 months. Despite our confidence in the case, the stakes were extremely high for the client in that if he lost at trial, he faced a life sentence and sex offender registry requirements. Four weeks before the trial was to begin, all charges were dismissed. The client's arrest record and fingerprints were destroyed, and he was no longer on bond. Our client went back to living his normal life.
