Procedural precision determines outcomes.

Criminal litigation demands disciplined statutory analysis, procedural awareness, and structured motion practice.

JWL provides strategic drafting and issue analysis support in felony and misdemeanor matters, with particular focus on omnibus motions, statutory speedy trial compliance, and discovery obligations.

​

Comprehensive review and drafting support addressing:

  • Suppression motions

  • Huntley / Mapp / Dunaway issues

  • Sandoval applications

  • Brady material requests

  • Evidentiary challenges

CPL 30.30 – Statutory Speedy Trial Analysis

Detailed timeline analysis including:

  • Chargeable vs. excludable time

  • Statement of readiness review

  • Adjournment calculations

  • Certificate of Compliance implications

  • Grounds for dismissal

Meticulous calendaring and record analysis is critical to 30.30 viability. JWL conducts structured file review to identify dismissal opportunities and procedural defects.

JWL provides:

  • Motions to compel
