CDH Law successfully advocated for our client before an Onondaga County Jury in a trial for Assault in the Second Degree. The Jury returned a Not Guilty verdict after deliberating for several hours after trial. Our client was facing up to 7 years in prison. We persuaded the jury that there was reasonable doubt as to the sequence of events. Our client testified that he was acting in self-defense during the altercation with another family member. He walked away from the ordeal with a new found lease on life.
