Attorney Torgerson Gets Theft by Swindle in the Amount of $2.5 Million Dismissed

Feb. 4, 2014 - PRLog -- Ms. Torgerson’s client was charged with aiding and abetting theft by swindle in the amount of $2.5 million dollars.  After a long year of multiple court dates, the case was continued for dismissal.  The case has now been dismissed.  Excellent result.

DWI Eliminated

In  a recent DWI case in the City of Minneapolis, Hennepin County, Ms. Torgerson was successful in completely eliminating the DWI from her client’s record.  In the criminal case, early on, the criminal DWI was dismissed at the arraignment.  Then, later, at the civil implied consent hearing, the Judge rescinded the revocation of the petitioner’s driving privileges.  Thus accomplishing the complete elimination of the the DWI from the client’s record.  Excellent results.

It should be pointed out, in every DWI there are actually two (2) cases.  There is the criminal case, that everyone knows about.  But there is also the civil implied consent case.  In order to completely eliminate the DWI from your record, you must be successful in the criminal case, and, initiate and win the civil implied consent case.  Most people are unaware of this second case.  If you fail to initiate this second, civil case within the requisite 30 days, even if you win in the criminal case, you still have the DWI on your record.  So, whenever you are charged with a DWI, you need to quickly retain an experienced criminal defense lawyer such as Ms. Torgerson, to ensure that your case is handled properly.
