Dallas County

Client, a well-respected respiratory therapist, was charged with sexually harassing a co-worker. Client’s respiratory license was in danger of being revoked based on the accusations and he was put on indefinite suspension pending the outcome of the case. Attorney Johnny Lanzillo and his former partner Sminu Peter noticed many inconsistencies in the co-worker’s story and set the case for jury trial.

RESULT: At trial, the criminal defense team pointed out all the holes in the co-worker’s testimony and argued alternatives of what likely occurred. After just 30 minutes of deliberation, the jury returned a Not Guilty verdict. Client can now move on from the baseless accusations, can return to work, and his license is no longer in danger of revocation.
