Stuart & Ward LLP is pleased to announce that partner Tom Ward secured an acquittal for a client charged with child abuse in Aspen, Colorado.
Colorado Child Abuse Defense
Allegations of child abuse are among the gravest and most difficult to defend. A defendant faces not only the uncertainty of a Colorado state felony but the stigma that attaches to the accusation itself, long before any evidence is heard. The charge against the firm’s client carried the possibility of a jail sentence, probation supervision, diminished parental rights, and other collateral consequences.
Experienced Child Abuse Defense Attorneys
Tom worked to build a defense by examining the evidence in detail and testing every weakness in the state’s case. After months of litigation, the matter was tried to a Pitkin County jury, which returned a verdict of acquittal.
The firm’s statewide practice means clients receive the same representation in Pitkin County as they would in Denver. Cases are handled by the partner who takes them, not passed to associates or contract counsel.
