Recent Criminal Defense Case Successes

At the Law Offices of Tedone and Morton, P.C., we work to provide successful representation for our clients in criminal cases. Some of our recent victories include:

People v. Marcus Gant - (June 15, 2018) Our client was facing a Class X felony charge for possession of controlled substances, and if convicted, he would have faced six to 30 years in prison without the chance of probation. Attorney Cosmo Tedone successfully argued that the drugs found in the vehicle Mr. Gant was driving belonged to someone else, and he was found not guilty.
