Immigration Bond Granted for Longtime Texas Resident

Cedillo Law Firm secured a $10,000 immigration bond for a detained client who had been held at the Montgomery Processing Center. The Court considered his more than two decades of residence in the United States, strong family and community ties, stable release plan, and lack of criminal history. His family was able to post the bond immediately, allowing him to continue fighting his immigration case from home rather than detention.

DWI 2nd Dismissed on the Eve of Trial

Our client faced a DWI 2nd charge stemming from a 2020 case that remained pending for years. We believed he had a strong defense to the alleged conduct and prepared the case for trial. On the eve of trial, after reviewing the evidence, the State chose to dismiss the charge. Our client was relieved to finally put the case behind him and move forward with his life.

Trial-Day Dismissal After Year-Long Fight

After more than a year of court appearances and multiple trial settings, our client’s case was finally dismissed on the day of trial. Our defense team had identified several suppression issues and was fully prepared to litigate them and proceed before a jury. The client trusted our strategy, kept returning to court, and stayed ready throughout the process. Instead of another reset, we were able to deliver the result he had been waiting for: a complete dismissal of the case.

Theft Case Dismissed on the Eve of Trial

Our client was accused of shoplifting, but the surveillance footage told a different story: he did not steal anything. Despite that evidence, the charge remained pending for months while our client lived under the weight of a criminal accusation. Only on the eve of trial, after prosecutors finally reviewed the case closely, was the charge dismissed. The dismissal allowed our client to clear his name—but only after months of unnecessary stress and uncertainty.

Felony Assault Charge Dismissed Before Trial

Our client was facing a felony Assault–Impeding Breath charge with exceptionally serious sentencing exposure. Because of his prior record, a conviction could have carried a minimum sentence of 25 years in prison. We prepared the case for trial and challenged the State’s ability to prove the allegation. With trial approaching, the case was dismissed, eliminating the risk of a potentially decades-long prison sentence. Client was extremely thankful and glad he trusted the advice of lead counsel J.P. Cedillo. 

DWI Case Dismissed

Our client was charged with DWI after an accident despite a low BAC result and evidence that did not establish intoxication. She rejected a plea offer and held out for trial. When the defense announced ready on the day of trial, the State dismissed the case.
