Successful Case Results

Dismissed – Triple Robbery Case.

Client was arrested at a luxury health food market in Santa Monica after he was accused of robbery. He was charged with three counts of felony robbery, each count is a serious and violent felony strike which would carry life long consequences for a young man with no criminal record. Our client was aggressively prosecuted by the DA at LAX court. Our staff conducted a thorough investigation and gathered extensive mitigation information and exculpatory evidence that was presented to the DA supervisor who eventually agreed to dismiss the case entirely. The client and his family were very grateful and most pleased with the result.

Dismissed – DUI Case.

Our young Latino client was driving home from a bar in Redondo Beach. He had a few drinks but felt fine to drive. He was stopped by two officers after an illegal lane change. He admitted to drinking and was arrested for DUI. After extensive discussions with the City Prosecutor at the Inglewood courthouse, the DUI case was dismissed in November 2020 in exchange for a plea to unsafe lane change, an infraction, no fine. Our client was very pleased and felt vindicated after being wrongfully arrested

Dismissed – Domestic Violence Case.

Our client and his wife booked a weekend away at a beach resort in South Orange County. They went out to dinner and after a few drinks the wife began feeling agitated and upset. The couple soon headed back to their hotel where an argument ensued just outside the hotel entrance. A bystander called the police and our client was arrested and charged with domestic violence assault at Harbor Justice center in Newport Beach. Our office conducted extensive investigations and spoke to witnesses and staff who provided important details that allowed us to secure an outright dismissal.

Dismissed – Federal White Collar Conspiracy.

Our client was arrested and charged in federal court along with 13 other codefendants. The felony conspiracy fraud case alleged $10 million in credit fraud and our client was the alleged ring leader of the operation. The client fired three different skilled federal defense attorneys before retaining our firm. The LA based Federal US Attorneys already secured a number of convictions against the other codefendants by the time we were retained. After many months of aggressive advocacy, defense motions and countless court hearings, the case was dismissed against our client in its entirety. The result was a huge victory for our client and our firm.

Dismissed – Domestic Violence Case

Our client was falsely accused of domestic violence by his stepmother. While his father was away, the stepmother began arguing with our client and started insulting him. She and our client exchanged words for several minutes before she called the police and fabricated claims that our client hit her. The police arrived and saw rashes and redness on the stepmother’s body. When asked about the redness she told them her stepson caused all of them and he was subsequently arrested and charged with domestic violence assault. After months of investigation and conversations with the prosecution, our team was able to convince the LA District Attorney that the case was fabricated and we were able to secure a dismissal for our client.

False Allegations Dismissed – Tarek has been supportive from the start and is very well versed on the legal system, from the jail house to the DAs office and the courtroom. Tarek and his staff worked diligently to do everything necessary to prove my brothers innocence after 2 counts against him. His case got dismissed. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!!

Mr. Shawky helped me out in such an incredible way. I was facing multiple criminal charges for a crime I did not commit. Mr. Shawky stood by my side every step of the way. At the end, Mr. Shawky was able to fight for me and get everyone of my charges dismissed. I would refer everyone I know to this great professional!

Smart, Kind, and a Winner. Most attorneys come across as either smart jerks who will get you what you want, but you will hate dealing with them, or they are nice but not very good at getting you what you want. Tarek is a rare breed. After explaining my story to him, I felt instantly understood and respected.
