The best result is one where we help our clients avoid threatened charges entirely. We have represented numerous clients in criminal and civil investigations in which charges were dismissed by the prosecution prior to trial due to our advocacy.
In June 2017, prior to indictment, New York County District Attorney’s Office declined to pursue investigation against our client for tax fraud charges arising from allegedly unreported income following our presentation to senior officials in that office.
In May 2017, on the eve of trial, the New York County District Attorney’s Office dismissed stalking charges against our client following our presentation to senior officials in that office.
In March 2017, following the completion of a program by the client, the New York County District Attorney’s Office dismissed all charges against client arising from felony possession of a controlled substance and forgery of prescriptions, based on our pre-pleading submission explaining defendant’s complete rehabilitation.

Won a defense verdict on all fraud charges brought by the SEC against a former investment advisor for a national brokerage firm, following a month-long federal jury trial. Our client was also found not liable on 54 out of 60 allegations of negligence. The remaining 6 allegations of negligence were later dismissed on appeal. The allegations concerned market timing of mutual funds.

Won acquittal verdict on charges brought by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York against a former corporate lawyer, following several weeks of federal jury trial.

The allegations concerned fraud in connection with the attempted acquisition of Maxim Magazine. (US v. Newkirk, SDNY 2015, Case No.15-cr-534(JSR)).

O’Connor Davies Munns & Dobbins, LLP, California Superior Court, County of Los Angeles, Case No. BC494236).
