Arizona Mitigation

Mitigation can help balance the scales of justice.

 
Sirlin Mitigation Services works in cooperation with defense counsel and specializes in advocating for the lowest possible sentence for you or your loved one.

The criminal justice system can be a formidable and overwhelming opponent. Prosecutors and Judges rarely take the time to look beyond the most basic facts and circumstances surrounding the cases that come before them.

In the words of Virginia Senator Jim Webb, “America’s criminal justice system has deteriorated to the point that it is a national disgrace, as we are putting way too many of the wrong kind of people into prison. We have 5% of the world’s population; we have 25% of the world’s known prison population. We have an incarceration rate in the United States, the world’s greatest democracy, that is five times as high as the average incarceration rate of the rest of the world. There are only two possibilities here: either we have the most evil people on earth living in the United States; or we are doing something dramatically wrong in terms of how we approach the issue of criminal justice” (Senator Jim Webb’s Floor Speech, 2009).

I specialize in providing all involved parties with a more complete and panoramic picture of the individual as a whole. Mitigation Memorandums can help powerful players within the criminal justice system better understand an individual’s life story and offer alternatives to lengthy sentences.
