In the world of criminal defense, results speak louder than promises. While legal expertise and courtroom strategy are essential, it’s the real-life outcomes that define a law firm’s legacy. For Kohn & Yager, the stories of their clients—people who faced overwhelming odds and emerged with their futures intact—are a testament to the firm’s dedication, skill, and heart. These success stories reveal not only legal victories but also the human impact of having the right defense team.
One client, a young professional charged with DUI after a routine traffic stop, faced the possibility of losing his job and professional license. The evidence seemed stacked against him—field sobriety tests, a breathalyzer reading, and officer testimony. But Larry Kohn meticulously reviewed the arrest footage and discovered that the breathalyzer had not been properly calibrated. His motion to suppress the results was granted, and the case was dismissed. The client kept his job, his license, and his future.
Another case involved a college student accused of drug possession on campus. The student risked expulsion and a criminal record that could derail her academic and career plans. Cory Yager, drawing on his law enforcement experience, identified flaws in the search procedure and argued that the student’s rights had been violated. The charges were dropped, and the student was able to continue her education without interruption. Her parents later described Yager as “a guardian angel in a suit.”
In a more serious case, a father of three was charged with aggravated assault after a domestic dispute. The situation was complex, with conflicting accounts and emotional tension. Bubba Head took the lead, conducting a thorough investigation and presenting evidence that the client had acted in self-defense. After a hard-fought trial, the jury returned a verdict of not guilty. The client was reunited with his family, and the ordeal became a turning point in his life.
These stories are not exceptions—they’re the norm at Kohn & Yager. The firm’s attorneys don’t just fight cases; they fight for people. They understand that behind every charge is a person with a story, a future, and a need for justice. Their approach is personal, their preparation is exhaustive, and their results are undeniable.
Client testimonials echo this sentiment. Words like “life-saving,” “compassionate,” and “relentless” appear again and again. Many clients speak of the firm’s responsiveness, clarity, and ability to make them feel heard during the most difficult times of their lives. It’s this combination of legal excellence and human empathy that sets Kohn & Yager apart.
