Another TRIAL VICTORY.

Attorney Melissa Barrette’s client was charged with:
• Strangulation/Suffocation
• 1st Degree Reckless Injury
• Aggravated Battery – Intend to Cause Great Bodily Harm
• Disorderly Conduct

Serious allegations. Serious exposure. Serious consequences.

But accusations are not evidence.

From day one, Attorney Barrette challenged the narrative. The complaining witness was caught in multiple lies, the medical records failed to support the State’s claims, and the evidence simply did not match the accusations the prosecutor tried to sell to the jury.

Her client conceded his actions were disorderly, but consistently maintained any injuries were accidental and occurred during a roughhousing incident — not a violent assault.

At trial, the Attorney Barrette exposed the inconsistencies, dismantled the allegations, and forced the State to answer for the lack of credible evidence. The result?

NOT GUILTY on all felony counts.

When the government overcharges and the facts don’t add up, Attorney Melissa Barrette fights back — aggressively, strategically, and relentlessly. Because every person deserves a defense, not a rush to judgment.

Persistence and preparation win the day.

Attorney Brett T. Kaehne represented a gentlemen on a charge of Disorderly Conduct (Domestic Abuse). After reviewing all evidence, including cell phone videos from the date in question provided by his client, Attorney Kaehne quickly realized the wrong spouse was charged. Meaning, the alleged victim was in fact acting disorderly.

The case was pending for nearly a year and a half due to issues with a critical investigating officer. Attorney Kaehne filed jury instructions and pre-trial motions in anticipation of trial.

At the final pre-trial hearing, the District Attorney placed on the record that he could not meet his burden in proving the case beyond a reasonable doubt.

Case dismissed, and another life restored.

When the system gets it wrong, the right defense makes all the difference.

Attorney Savannah Muth recently demonstrated just how powerful a thorough defense investigation can be. What began as a routine citation quickly unraveled when she took a closer look—scrutinizing the evidence, challenging assumptions, and uncovering critical gaps in the prosecution’s case. The result? The citation was dismissed.

This wasn’t luck. It was preparation, persistence, and a relentless commitment to the truth.

If you’re facing a citation or charge, don’t assume the case against you is airtight. With the right advocate, every detail is examined and every angle explored.

Not all victories come in the form of a “not guilty” verdict.

Attorney Barrette was brought on as second counsel for a client facing several felony charges. Before she joined the case, the prosecution's standing offer included a lengthy prison sentence.

Through diligent advocacy and a careful review of the case, Attorney Barrette identified several mitigating factors that had previously been overlooked. After presenting these factors and negotiating further, she reached a new joint agreement with the prosecutor.

The result: her client received probation and will not have to serve time in jail—let alone prison.

This outcome is a powerful reminder that thorough preparation, persistence, and strategic negotiation can make a life-changing difference for a client.
