Negligent Homicide Dismissed
On September 22, 2022, a Maricopa County Superior judge determined there was no probable cause and dismissed the criminal case of negligent homicide against a woman defended by the Nava Law Firm. The Nava Law Firm always believed that this woman was WRONGFULLY charged with the negligent homicide of an on-duty police officer, and we worked diligently to identify weaknesses in the prosecution's case along with alleged corruption. “It was a relief. I feel like I can finally breathe, I can move forward with my life, this has been a very difficult process. It’s been three-and-a-half years…” - the Nava Law Firm’s client
Armando Nava's Criminal Defense expertise has been featured in the following publications:
Armando is best attorney hands down! Awesome ways of communicating with me utilizing multiple forms of communication like his portal/phone/ or text! He also will always try to find the best deals for you possible. Lastly, very resourceful as to who he can verify you with for different services/needs if he’s not able to help you with something!
If I could give Armando Nava more than a 5 star review I would do it in a heart beat. I have known him for a while now and he is someone I genuinely respect and admire. He is there for you no matter how hard or easy your case is, he does not judge you, and he does everything in his power to make the client satisfied.
I am writing this review almost a year after my charge (that I thought was going to do a year in jail) was dismissed. Armando has been very transparent and always available. I still ask him for legal advice even after my case was finished and he always helps. He will be a great ally for you and has been a dear friend for me.
