Just Criminal Law touts jury wins and dismissals in Wyoming criminal cases

Just Criminal Law says it has won acquittals and dismissals in high-stakes Wyoming criminal cases, including a first-degree sexual assault trial and a Wyoming Supreme Court reversal in Brown v. State. The Gillette firm is highlighting a defense model built around founder Christina L. Williams’ background as a former prosecutor.

Why it matters: - Just Criminal Law is positioning itself as a defense firm that can win cases many defendants may think are unwinnable. - The firm says its results matter because they can mean acquittal, dismissal, or a case-ending suppression ruling rather than conviction or plea pressure.

What happened: - Gillette-based Just Criminal Law says it has secured not guilty verdicts in felony kidnapping and assault, first-degree sexual assault, stalking, aggravated assault, felony theft, felony drug possession and sexual battery cases. - The firm says numerous DUI, fraud and domestic battery cases were dismissed after prosecutors could not meet their burden of proof or lay a foundation for evidence. - In Brown v. State of Wyoming, 2019 WY 42, 439 P.3d 726, Docket No. S-18-0112, the Wyoming Supreme Court reversed the district court and granted a motion to suppress after a stop was challenged. - The firm says the Supreme Court ruling ended that case.

The details: - Founding attorney Christina L. Williams is a former prosecutor who has worked in criminal law for more than 25 years and has served Wyoming and South Dakota since 2009. - Just Criminal Law says its defense approach starts with evaluating every case the way the State would build it. - The firm says Williams’ prosecutorial background helps the defense anticipate state tactics and how judges or juries may respond. - The team says it focuses on holding the State to its burden of proof, challenging the foundation of breath tests in DUI cases and filing suppression motions when stops or searches exceed legal limits. - In one first-degree sexual assault trial, a jury returned a not guilty verdict on all counts. - The firm says criminal investigator Tony Seeman reviews the facts of every case, attorneys identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s evidence and each matter is prepared as if it may go to trial. - Just Criminal Law says most cases resolve through negotiation. - The firm says it meets clients within days of the initial call, charges a transparent flat fee and travels up to 120 miles from its Campbell County office to courts across Wyoming and into South Dakota. - The team includes senior associate attorney Sara Lock, criminal investigator Tony Seeman and paralegal and office manager Maureen Costello. - The firm has been recognized by The National Trial Lawyers Top 100 and the National College for DUI Defense. - Just Criminal Law offers Spanish translation for clients. - The firm lists a Facebook page at its social media page.

Between the lines: - The pitch is as much about process as outcomes, with the firm using former-prosecutor experience as a credibility signal. - The repeated emphasis on suppression motions and evidentiary challenges suggests a strategy built around forcing the State to prove every step of its case. - The results list is broad, but the firm is careful to frame them as part of a repeatable method rather than isolated wins.

What's next: - Just Criminal Law appears to be using the case record to attract new clients facing serious charges in Wyoming and nearby South Dakota courts. - The firm is likely to keep emphasizing early client contact, trial preparation and evidence challenges as core parts of its defense model.

The bottom line: - Just Criminal Law is betting that a former-prosecutor approach, paired with trial-ready preparation, will remain a selling point in high-stakes criminal defense.
