Defensa de un comerciante frente a una injusta medida administrativa

General overview of the case: A logistics company based in Charlotte faced serious administrative sanctions by a state regulatory body for alleged violations of regulations establishing the obligation to offer a public service. The sanctions imposed consisted of significant fines and the suspension of all authorizations allowing the continuity of the company’s business.

Our solution: Carlos Mario Patiño Attorney carried out a thorough analysis of the entire administrative process and detected several procedural mistakes and a lack of sufficient proof in the sanctioning resolution. We also represented the client at the entire administrative body, as a result of which we processed solid appeals before all corresponding instances and negotiated with authorities in order to clarify misunderstandings and errors contained in the sanctions.

Result achieved: The sanctions were revoked by the administrative body, and the fines were lowered by more than 70%. In addition, the client’s business continued without further interruptions and their good reputation before regulatory bodies was recovered. This case allowed for the safeguarding of not only the client’s immediate interests, but also their ability to continue doing business long-term in accordance with all applicable laws.

Victorias en Asesoría y Defensa de interna criminal

Our individual client was accused of aggravated assault in connection with a fight at a public place. The possible penalties for conviction included years of incarceration, a permanent criminal record, and the end of the client’s livelihood and family life.

The firm acted quickly to investigate the facts, interview witnesses, and obtain surveillance video that was at odds with the prosecution’s account. We vigorously disputed admissibility of certain evidence, and brought out inconsistencies in the accuser’s testimony, at pretrial motions.

After zealous and skilled legal advocacy, the prosecution dropped all charges even before the case went to trial. Our client was cleared entirely – free to move on with her life and her career with zero impact from the case. Here is an illustration of how we stand up for our clients’ rights and reputations, even when they are accused or charged with very serious crimes.

Protección de los derechos laborales de un empleado público

Case Study: An employee of the public sector in North Carolina received notice of a pending disciplinary action due to an alleged violation of an administrative procedure. The pending action not only threatened the employee’s current job position but also his pension and future employment opportunities.

Our Solution: Carlos Mario Patiño Attorney provided immediate legal advice, represented our client in all hearings, and prepared a complete defense. By emphasizing procedural violations by the employer and demonstrating the absence of substantiated evidence, we defended our client’s rights under state and federal administrative law.

Results: The disciplinary measure was dismissed, and the client’s employment benefits for the future were preserved. Our participation in this case also resulted in an internal investigation and improvement of the employer’s disciplinary procedure, which favored other public employees in similar situations.

Resolución exitosa de un complejo litigio local en Derecho Económico Internacional

A global service company, just beginning operations in Charlotte, faced a contractual dispute against an area supplier involving breach of contract and unfair trade practices claims. Given the significant business implications of this dispute, the matter jeopardized the client’s entrance into the United States marketplace.

Based upon our advanced training in Economic Law, we undertook a thorough analysis of the contract terms to understand areas of ambiguity. We then actively engaged in a series of strategic negotiations with the defendant supplier’s counsel. We prepared a strong legal brief articulating our client’s claims and promoting the use of mediation to avoid protracted litigation costs.

The matter was successfully ended by entering a mutually-acceptable settlement agreement including modified contract terms and damages paid to our client. The client launched its business operations in North Carolina as planned and has since expanded its operations; further, it credits our highly-informed legal advice for helping it overcome initial legal challenges.

Defensa ante proceso criminal y administrativo de una familia inmigrante

A family of new immigrants living in Charlotte found themselves simultaneously dealing with criminal charges stemming from a misunderstanding at a public event, as well as an administrative issue regarding their status. The simultaneous criminal and administrative aspects of their issue created significant anxiety for the family and threatened to derail their ability to continue residing in the United States.

The firm recognized connecting threads between the simultaneous actions relating to the client, and worked to create an integrated legal response. The firm provided defense counsel in the criminal case, explaining the client’s lack of intent and helping to have all criminal charges dismissed. The firm also worked with immigration officials and administrative agencies regarding rectifying the client’s residency issue, ensuring that all requirements were met.

One hundred percent success-both cases were resolved positively: the criminal case was settled and the administrative issues resolved so that the family was able to freely remain in Charlotte. This case demonstrates how our holistic approach helps clients avoid the impact of multiple legal matters facing them.
