Criminal Defense Attorney Lynne Torgerson wins successful result in domestic assault case in Hennepin County
Minnesota Criminal Defense Lawyer Lynne Torgerson obtained an excellent outcome on a charge of domestic assault in Hennepin County. Ms. Torgerson represented a young man charged with domestic assault. It is worth highlighting that in most domestic assault cases, there are no injuries. Most involve a verbal argument, or some pushing. It is only in a very few handful of cases where an injury is inflicted. The case was out of Hennepin County. The City of Minneapolis decided to take mercy on her client. Ms. Torgerson obtained a stay of adjudication in the case. This means there was no conviction. This helps to protect a person’s record, and to avoid hindrance of employment opportunities in the future. A stay of adjudication means that there is no conviction, and the charge does not go on the person’s record. Further, if the defendant successfully completes probation, the charge is dismissed. Moreover, in the future, the defendant would also be eligible to obtain an expungement. Well done Ms. Torgerson!
