The client and a co-defendant were charged with trafficking narcotics and facing prison time. Atty. Castaneda provided the prosecution extensive mitigating factors in her client’s case which resulted in the government making an offer of a misdemeanor charge with no jail time to her client. Also benefiting from her efforts was the co-defendant who subsequently accepted the government’s offer.
