Mr. Abt is heavily sought after as a criminal defense attorney. A young man was accused of raping a woman at party. Mr. Abt utilized the resources available, including laser focused private investigators to show that the woman was lying about many of the details, and that the sexual intercourse had been consensual. All charges, including a rape case, against our client were dismissed, and he avoided a lifetime prison sentence.
Mr. Abt was hired to represent a man charged with murder who had kidnapped the alleged victim, hog-tied him, strangled him, and ultimately set the man on fire in the trunk of his own car. There was overwhelming evidence against our client, including cell phone records putting our client at the scene of the crime. But Mr. Abt persuaded the jury that our client was not guilty, beyond a reasonable doubt and our client was found not guilty of murder, felony murder, kidnapping, and aggravated assault.
Mr. Abt defended a man who was charged with trafficking 10 kilograms (over 22 pounds) of pure cocaine. The client was caught on videotape with the cocaine and gave a false name to the police. Despite this evidence, Mr. Abt used scientific defenses and technical legal “loop holes” which persuaded the jury to find his client not guilty and the client avoided a 25-year prison sentence.
