Before Sentencing
Understanding the process before your case is resolved.
The decisions made between investigation and sentencing shape everything that follows. Here's what to expect at each step — and how to prepare.
What To Know
The essentials, explained plainly.
Investigation
What to know during an investigation, how target letters work, and the mistakes that cost people the most.
Charges
Understanding the charges against you, how counts stack, and what your realistic exposure looks like.
Indictment
What happens after you're indicted, arraignment, and how the case begins to move.
Pretrial Release
Bond, conditions of release, pretrial services, and how to stay compliant.
Presentence Report (PSR)
What's in it, how it's built, and why it follows you into the BOP. Objections matter.
Sentencing
Guideline calculations, variance arguments, letters of support, and your allocution.
Mitigation & Advocacy
Building a mitigation package that presents the full picture of who you are.
RDAP Eligibility Planning
Positioning early so you qualify for programs that can reduce your sentence later.
