Defending Your Rights and Freedom
Our firm carefully reviews all aspects of your case. We pay particular attention to the details leading to your arrest and whether the police possess admissible evidence.
Whenever possible, we seek to obtain a dismissal of charges or an acceptable plea arrangement. If your decision is to contest the charge, we will aggressively represent you at trial.
Diversion and Deferred Judgments
In many misdemeanor cases, particularly those involving first-time offenders, it may be possible to obtain an outcome that enables the offender to avoid a conviction. The attorneys at Trullinger & Wenk, PLLC, understand the alternatives to conviction available in Arizona. If your case qualifies and you would like such an outcome, our firm will work with the prosecutor and court to seek it for you.
Clearing Your Record
If you have been convicted of a misdemeanor crime in Arizona, it may be possible to have the conviction set aside. Known in other states as expungement, setting aside a conviction enables you to say "No" to the question "Have you ever been convicted of a crime?"
Not all misdemeanor convictions can be expunged. If your case qualifies, Trullinger & Wenk, PLLC, can handle all aspects of your petition to set aside a conviction, and if successful the legal roadblocks to career advancement will be removed.
