Felony Breaking and Entering Amended to Misdemeanor Trespass with a Filing

Our client was charged with Breaking and Entering in Rhode Island, a very serious felony that carries significant penalties such as potential jail time, fines, lengthy community service hours or restitution and the potential of having a criminal record.

Our attorneys jumped to work, understanding the gravity of the situation. They began doing a thorough review of all the available evidence including police reports and witness statements. They analyzed the circumstances of the incident by working closely with our client. Using the evidence, our attorneys were able to build a strong defense.

Armed with this information, our attorneys made strategic negotiations with the prosecution and judge, highlighting mitigating factors and pointed out all the discrepancies in the evidence. Thanks to their work, they were able get the charges amended to a misdemeanor: trespass with a one year filing. This means that as long as our client stays out of any type of legal trouble for one year, the charge will be expunged. The charge is also no longer a felony, but instead a misdemeanor.
