Criminal Charges We Frequently See and Handle in Kew Gardens
Assault
Fights outside bars, near apartment buildings, specially on Queens Boulevard in Kew Gardens, can lead to assault charges. We investigate every detail, question witnesses, and can assert self-defense or lack-of-intent claims.
Domestic Violence
Domestic disputes can carry serious penalties, including jail and long term restraining orders. We push to minimize long-term consequences.
Case Example: Our client faced a domestic violence charge after a reported altercation with their spouse at their residential apartment on Union Turnpike. We reviewed 911 recordings, interviewed neighbors, and exposed contradictions in their spouse’s report, which was memorialized in the NYPD’s domestic incident report. We then negotiated a reduced charge, avoiding incarceration and protecting our client’s record.
Theft
Shoplifting cases often occur near Queens Place Mall, Metropolitan Avenue, or local banks. We examine the prosecutor’s evidence and push for dismissal of the charges.
Drug Charges
Police make drug arrests near Forest Park, the Union Turnpike subway station, and major roadways like the Grand Central Parkway. We fight unconstitutional searches, unreliable lab reports, and procedural errors.
Pink Criminal Court Summons
Disorderly conduct, public intoxication, and open alcohol container NYPD summonses are often issued in the Kew Gardens–Union Turnpike subway station, Forest Park, and Kew Gardens bars. We challenge illegal stops and procedural errors to get these summonses dismissed.
