Congratulations to our client, managing partner Stephen Foertsch, and the Bruno Law team on their recent trial win!

Our client faced false allegations of shaking his beautiful, infant son. Naturally, allegations like these shook our client to his core. At trial, the allegations were shown to be patently false and ridiculous, and our client was vindicated.

All too often, wild allegations arise to bolster a divorce or custody case. These allegations blur the line between family and criminal law. If you, or anyone you know, is in a similar situation, Bruno Law is here to help.
