Koffel Brininger Nesbitt also assists students, professionals, and other individuals whose criminal allegations may threaten their education, careers, licenses, or reputations. The firm may pursue diversion programs, intervention instead of conviction, deferred prosecution, treatment options, probation, or other non-prison outcomes when those solutions are available.
