Client was charged with third-degree felony assault for defending herself against her abusive boyfriend. Case went to trial, where Lesch & Duren executed a compelling cross-examination of the state’s chief witness. That action, combined with a successfully framed theory of the case, convinced the jury to return a verdict of NOT GUILTY.

State v. S.S. (2016)

Defendant held power of attorney for her ailing father. Upon his passing, she served as the personal representative for his estate. She executed his dying wishes by cutting checks to his grandchildren for their shares of the estate and did so by personally signing the checks herself. A dissatisfied sibling reported this action to the county, who charged S.S. with felony forgery. Lesch & Duren was able to secure exculpatory evidence in favor of S.S., and the county finally relented and dismissed the charges.
