Motions to Dismiss or Reduce Your Charges or Sentence in California

Criminal defense lawyer Mark A. Davis is a former prosecutor himself and has considerable experience negotiating with prosecutors or filing motions to dismiss, reduce, or modify criminal charges.

Mark A. Davis defends clients in California courts who are charged with misdemeanor, felony, or aggravated felony charges including:

• Drug crimes
• Sex crimes
• Violent crimes
• Domestic violence
• Firearms offenses
• Fraud-related offenses

Most often, the prosecutor has a choice of what criminal charges to file under the same facts. Some of those possible charges may result in exclusion or deportation, or make you ineligible for U.S. citizenship. Different charges that fit the same facts may not have the same result.

In many cases, we can negotiate with the prosecutor to determine which charges will be filed against you, preventing the possibility of deportation and removal. If we have reason to believe the charges are not the most appropriate but the prosecutor will not budge, we may be able to go straight to the judge and file a motion to dismiss your charges altogether, or to force the prosecutor to modify or reduce the charge to a more appropriate one.

If you are convicted, we may still be able to file a motion to vacate your plea bargain or your conviction in order to remove that conviction from your record.
