TWELVE FELONY COUNTS OF INSURANCE FRAUD DISMISSED
Client, a college student, was hired by a personal injury law firm to perform
clerical tasks. Client worked at the firm for one year before earning
his accounting degree. Once he received his accounting degree, he obtained
employment in the accounting department of a large corporation. Four years
after leaving the law firm, client was arrested along with the lawyer
(his former employer), two chiropractors, and one capper. Client was charged
with 12 felony counts of insurance fraud. Client’s bail was set
at $415,000.00. Unbeknownst to the client, the law firm was engaged in
staging auto accidents and filing fraudulent insurance claims over a span
of years before and after his employment culminating in a loss of over
$500,000.00 to the insurance companies. The Madrid Law Firm battled with
the DA for all the documentary evidence, which culminated in the production
of thousands of pages that had to be downloaded on a 4TB External Hard Drive.
Notwithstanding that all the evidence failed to produce one scintilla of incriminating evidence against our client, the DA refused to dismiss. Erica continued preparing for battle relentlessly. A month before the preliminary hearing, the DA offered a misdemeanor plea to one count of insurance fraud. On the advice of Erica, client rejected the offer. It was battle stations. At the commencement of the preliminary hearing, the DA threw in the towel and dismissed the case.
The outcome of your case depends upon who is in your corner fighting for your rights. From start to finish, it took Erica 2.5 years to get the case dismissed. Client was ecstatic over the results.

Erica, was very helpful and accommodating. She was very informative and knowledgeable about my DUI case. She informed me of all my options. She was prompt and on top of my case. She kept me informed every step of the way and gave me a heads up on what was to come and what to expect. Her staff is friendly and courteous and always greeted me with a smile.- Veronica T. -

“You always made sure I was protected and secure.”
It is unfortunate that we had to meet under the circumstances that we did, however, I am very privileged to have met you and your daughter, Erica Madrid. During the time you were my attorney, you and your daughter always treated me with the most respect. You ALWAYS listened and paid attention to all the details of my case. The matter in which you treated me and my case is just amazingly great, I felt as if I was the most important client you had. You always made sure I was protected and secure. These past three months have been the longest three months of my life. I just could not move on with my life, it was as if my life was put on hold! Every court appointment that we had, you ALWAYS represented me with the most professionalism, which says a lot of your law firm. My preliminary hearing date came up and I was very nervous, scared, and I just was not myself. The entire preliminary hearing was very intense, however, I always felt so confident in my attorney representing me. After a long hour and a half, it came time for the judge to make a decision, and when the judge said "case dismissed," I could not hold back the tears and the emotions going through my mind and body, I felt so much joy! Right away, I was thanking The Lord for the blessing of continuing on with my life. I was able to breathe without feeling afraid. There are no words to express to you and your team how thankful I am for all the hard work that was put in into my case. Thank you for fighting for me, my life, and my family! God Bless you, your family, and your law firm. May you continue to service others like the way you and your law firm did for me.- S.P.
