A lot of clients the Law Offices of Robert E. Brown tirelessly defends are good people that simply make foolish mistakes. That is actually what we specialize in. A recent example that springs to mind comes from a minor who went along with her friends to a restricted rooftop area of a building in downtown Manhattan just to take pictures against the skyline. A security guard observed her and her friends on video and called the police. 

Such lapses in judgment are barely criminal, yet without our help she might have faced severe economic and social punishment as a result of her careless actions. In fact, she was charged with Criminal Trespass, an A Misdemeanor – punishable by up to one year in jail!

Instead, we fought hard to ensure that the case was ultimately dismissed and sealed and our client escaped with her clean record intact. In another scenario, she might have left this ordeal with a criminal record rather than a life lesson.

Result: Case dismissed.
