Child Rape

The law firm was retained to handle post-conviction representation of a thirty-two year old businessman. After already being convicted of child rape and subjected to a life sentence with no early release, the law firm secured a new trial after exposing new evidence that should have been presented at the trial. The second trial proceeded before a jury which acquitted the client on the count of Rape. Efforts by the state to introduce a lesser included offense of Gross Sexual Imposition were successfully countered. As such, the client was released without any further sanction. Ian Friedman & Eric Nemecek served as trial counsel
