Gregory Caplan was a prosecutor in the San Fernando Valley for six years. During those six years, he had an opportunity to build a good working relationship with many of the current prosecutors who staff the San Fernando Valley courtrooms, today. Mr. Caplan’s knowledge of the local courts enables his clients to understand their options in handling their criminal charges. Many San Fernando Valley criminal defense lawyers spend no time on their clients’ cases prior to court. Mr. Caplan, however, takes an aggressive approach to his clients’ cases. In many situations, he contacts the prosecutor before the case is filed, to request an “office hearing,” or other “criminal filing reject,” to avoid charges being filed altogether.
A possible alternative to a criminal filing is a City Attorney program which allows many people charged with criminal offenses, to obtain dismissals of their cases. Mr. Caplan is extremely knowledgeable in this field, and has handled numerous cases as a San Fernando Valley defense attorney where clients who were charged with a crime were able to obtain “Diversion” and dismissals. Mr. Caplan’s clients have received dismissals in Theft charges, Burglary charges, Weapon charges, Drug charges (including Marijuana), Vandalism charges, Hit and Run charges, and Domestic Violence and Battery charges. Criminal defense attorneys who are not familiar when and where these “Diversion” programs are available can cost you an opportunity to have your charges dropped. (These case resolutions depended on individual facts and circumstances- individual results vary.)
