CDH Law Welcomes New Associate Attorney Nicolas Hurtado

Syracuse, New York – CDH Law is proud to announce the arrival of Nicolas Hurtado as our newest Associate Attorney.  Nicolas brings a wealth of litigation experience to CDH Law. Hailing from Bogota, Colombia, where he has been practicing criminal defense, compliance, and helping victims of domestic violence for eight years, Nicolas has been involved in numerous high-profile cases. He defended a former congressman charged as a co-conspirator of one of Colombia’s ex-presidents, he argued before the Supreme Court, and he was a defense attorney in a case the press called the biggest corruption case in Colombia, to name only a few.

Nicolas was also a Professor of Law at one of Bogota’s best universities, where he taught Criminal Procedure and Evidence.  Just this month, Nicolas was honored by inclusion on Legal 500’s shortlist for the Rising Star of the Year in Compliance award, an award reserved for the highest achievers in this practice area. While Nicolas’ immense experience allows him to represent any client, as a native Spanish speaker, Nicolas is particularly suited to serve the growing upstate New York Hispanic and Latino population.

We are confident that Nicolas’ extensive background and dedication will greatly enhance our commitment to providing exceptional legal services to our clients.

” “I kept fighting for the court to do the right thing,” Anthony Broadwater says, sitting in his lawyer’s office Wednesday, a box of tissues set before him. His life has been marked by prolonged stretches of misery. Broadwater spent more than 16 years in prison after being falsely convicted of author Alice Sebold’s rape, the subject of her memoir “Lucky.” After his release in 1999, the same year the book was published, Broadwater became a registered violent sex offender, a purgatory that diminished his income, movement, and quality of life, but not his hope that he would be exonerated.”

Two weeks into criminal justice reform, and prosecutors say they’re struggling to keep up

We’re two weeks into the new criminal justice reform here in New York state. Since the beginning of the year, we’ve seen push-back and support for bail reform and the new discovery law. It’s a controversial new law prompting the release of hundreds of suspects across the state. It’s also sparking outrage from district attorneys, sheriffs, and local police departments. Judges here in New York no longer have discretion, something New Jersey’s law allows to let the judge consider a suspect’s threat to the community. Read Full Article

DA finds way to keep driver accused of fatal Parkway hit-and-run jailed despite bail reform

Syracuse, NY — A judge didn’t want to do it. A prosecutor protested it.

That’s because leaving the scene of a fatal crash is not considered a violent felony, so a judge is forced to release the defendant pending trial under the new bail reform law. Read Full Article
