Case Results
Riot Charge Dismissed
A citizen journalist in Colorado Springs was charged with Obstructing a Peace Officer (later reduced to Disobeying Public Safety Orders) during events of late May and June 2020.
Kanthaka Defense Lawyers successfully asserted our client’s right to “observe or record the events on behalf of the public,” obtaining a complete dismissal of charges.
Case Spotlight:
Domestic Violence in Colorado
Domestic abuse is often thought of as only physical violence or threats of physical harm, but it actually encompasses a much broader range of behaviors including verbal and emotional abuse.
Kanthaka Defense Lawyers have successfully handled cases resulting in decreased sentences, and in some cases obtaining a complete dismissal of charges.
Criminal Defense Law
Whether you received a summons or were physically arrested, this is the time to remember you have the right to remain silent and to use it.
The only acceptable response to law enforcement is – “Thank you, may I contact my lawyer please.” Any statement you make may, and likely will be, used against you.
