Suspended Imposition of Sentence
RESOLUTE SOUTH DAKOTA ATTORNEYS HELP YOU SEEK A SUSPENDED IMPOSITION OF SENTENCE
If you've been charged with a crime, a conviction doesn't have to mean a lifetime of consequences. At Griese Law Firm, P.C., we fight for a Suspended Imposition of Sentence (SIS), a legal option that can keep a conviction off your record and help you move forward without the weight of a criminal conviction. Our skilled attorneys know how to navigate the complexities of obtaining an SIS to give you the best chance at a second chance. Here’s how we can help:
Eligibility Assessment — We evaluate your case to determine if you qualify for an SIS, which may be available for first-time offenders or certain non-violent offenses, and work to demonstrate your eligibility to the court.
Building Your Case — We compile strong evidence of your good character, commitment to rehabilitation, and community support to convince the judge that an SIS is in the best interest of justice.
Negotiating with Prosecutors — Our attorneys skillfully negotiate with prosecutors to advocate for an SIS, highlighting factors like your lack of a prior criminal record or mitigating circumstances that support a less severe sentence.
Court Representation — We provide persuasive representation in court, emphasizing your right to a fresh start and advocating for your future.
Guidance Through Compliance — If granted, we assist you in understanding and complying with all the terms of the SIS, such as probation, community service, or restitution, to ensure you stay on the path to a clean record.
By advocating for a Suspended Imposition of Sentence, our dedicated attorneys aim to help you avoid the lasting effects of a conviction and secure a brighter future.
