The Umansky Law Firm

A recent Umansky Law Firm client was recently charged with his fourth no valid license charge. The reason for this is that he cannot obtain a valid driver's license due to immigration issues. Both the prosecutor and the judge offered the client a plea of 30 days in jail. However, the client refused to accept the plea.

The client was then represented by Umansky Law Firm attorney Zahra Umansky who filed a motion to suppress challenging the stop of the vehicle the client was allegedly driving. The prosecutor then dropped the charges against the client and the client avoided jail.

In most places in the US, having a car is a necessity. Not all places have public transportation available, which makes it more likely that people with no valid driver's license will wind up in trouble with the law. If you need to drive to get to your job, you're going to do whatever it takes to get there. Some people need to break this law in order to make ends meet. Some people will break the law repeatedly. This does not mean they're horrible people, and it may mean that perhaps other laws need to be changed so that charges like this become a rarity.
