At Gans Law, we believe every case deserves a thorough investigation, aggressive defense strategy, and trial-ready preparation. Recently, Attorney Ian Wise achieved a significant victory for a client after securing the dismissal of 79 felony charges by exposing critical issues in the government’s case through a detailed legal motion.

A Defense Built on Facts and Preparation

Many people assume that once felony charges are filed, there is little that can be done beyond negotiating a plea agreement. The reality is that every criminal case must be carefully examined to determine whether law enforcement followed the law, whether evidence was properly obtained, and whether the prosecution can legally prove its allegations.

In this case, Attorney Ian Wise conducted an extensive review of the evidence and identified significant errors made during the investigation. Through a comprehensive motion filed with the court, he outlined the legal deficiencies that undermined the prosecution’s case and demonstrated why the charges could not withstand judicial scrutiny.

The Power of Motion Practice

A strong criminal defense is about much more than what happens at trial. Often, the most important battles occur before a jury is ever selected.

By challenging the legality of the investigation and exposing weaknesses in the state’s evidence, Attorney Wise was able to place the prosecution in a position where continuing the case was no longer viable. The result was the dismissal of all 79 felony charges, allowing the client to move forward without the burden of a criminal prosecution hanging over their future.

Experience Matters

Attorney Ian Wise brings a unique perspective to criminal defense. Before becoming a defense attorney, he served as a law enforcement officer for 13 years and earned advanced certifications, including becoming a Drug Recognition Expert (DRE)—a distinction held by fewer than 1% of law enforcement officers nationwide.

His background allows him to identify investigative mistakes, procedural violations, and weaknesses in criminal cases that others may overlook. That experience proved invaluable in achieving this outcome.

Why Hiring the Right Criminal Defense Attorney Is Critical

When facing felony charges, the stakes could not be higher. A conviction can impact employment opportunities, professional licenses, housing, educational opportunities, and personal freedom.

Every case deserves a defense team willing to:

• Thoroughly investigate the facts
• Challenge unlawful police conduct
• File strategic motions
• Negotiate from a position of strength
• Prepare every case as if it is going to trial

At Gans Law, we do not simply review police reports—we scrutinize every aspect of the government’s case to identify opportunities for dismissal, suppression of evidence, or favorable resolution.
