One of the most controversial elements of our criminal justice system is mandatory minimum sentences. Essentially, these statutory mandatory minimums remove discretion from judges and instead establish the bare minimum sentence a judge can order. Some crimes involve mandatory minimum sentences of 5 years, but some go as high as 25 years. Read our latest blog to learn how low-level, non-violent offenders may be able to avoid these (often times) draconian sentences.

Many of our federal cases involve 924(c) charges. Unfortunately, these cases carry with them significant, mandatory prison sentences. Take a look at our latest blog to learn more about 924(c), what the Feds have to prove, and how we can beat them.
