DUI/DWI
Ms. Velthius, a University of Miami student at the time, was charged with DUI Manslaughter. This was an unusual defense in that Mr. Quinon admitted in opening statements that his client was unquestionably drunk at the time of the accident. However, during the trial, Mr. Quinon persuaded the jury that Ms. Velthius was not the driver who caused the death, and the jury returned a verdict of not guilty.
Fraud
Mr. Quinon represented this client, who was indicted in state court for healthcare fraud relating to Medicaid services. Mr. Castro, who was chief of a municipal fire department, was found not guilty as to all charges by the jury.
Robbery
Mr. Quinon represented Armando Estrada, the lead defendant in the Miami River Cops case, the biggest police corruption scandal in South Florida history. Estrada faced a myriad of charges, including racketeering, bribery, conspiracy, robbery, drug possession, and murder. As reported in the Miami Herald, Mr. Quinon was nicknamed “El Filtro” (Spanish for “filter”) by the Government’s main witness on the stand for his ability to extract information during cross-examination. Mr. Quinon’s effective use of pretrial motions and searing cross-examinations at trial resulted in a mistrial, after 3 and 1/2 months in trial and testimony from more than 80 witnesses.
Theft
Misdemeanors
This client, an engineer, was a former employee of the City of Miami, where he worked for more than 30 years. He was charged with RICO, RICO Conspiracy, Grand Theft, and other serious charges, for allegedly working with other employees during working hours on many architectural and engineering jobs not related to the City of Miami. The case received the moniker of “The Firm” by the media because the number of workers involved and the services rendered paralleled those of a private company. After investigating the facts surrounding the charges, Mr. Quinon persuaded the prosecutors to drop all charges, except for two misdemeanor offenses, which allowed the client to receive a short term of 6 months probation. Mr. Briz will continue to receive his full pension payments as a result of the favorable disposition of his case.
Drug Crimes
Assault
Murder
Mr. Quinon led a defense team in the trial court, where the client had been indicted for 2 counts of First Degree Murder in the shooting death of two State Troopers on the Florida Turnpike, at a Deerfield Beach rest stop. After the client had served almost 17 years in prison, including more than 6 years in death row, she received the right to a new trial. By that time, one of her co-defendants had been executed by means of the electric chair. Mr. Quinon, after conducting a contentious evidentiary hearing, was able to resolve her case so that she walked out of the Broward County Jail a free woman, without any restrictions on her liberty. This case later was made into a TV movie: In the Blink of an Eye
Homicide
Our founder, Jose M. Quiñon, has built a reputation as a fierce trial advocate capable of handling the most complex or difficult cases with skill and poise. Mr. Quiñon began his career as an Assistant State Attorney in Miami-Dade County. As he rose to the rank of division chief, Mr. Quiñon was regularly assigned the most difficult homicide and narcotics cases. In his over 30 years in private practice, Mr. Quiñon has handled some of the most publicized and high-stakes cases in the nation, including the trials of the Miami River Cops, Carlos Lehder (Co-Founder of the Medellin Cartel), and the Government’s relentless attempts to prosecute Hialeah Mayor Raul Martinez.
Restraining Order
In this case Mr. Quinon’s client was a police officer who was indicted by State authorities for committing a sexual battery. It was alleged that he did so while on duty and when serving a restraining order. After a thorough investigation brought forth reasons to question the truthfulness of the accusations made against him, the State Attorney’s Office dismissed the pending criminal charges.
Money Laundering
This federal case involved a former Miami-Dade County Commission candidate indicted for bribery and money laundering in relation to a municipal bond deal. It was a highly publicized case which became widely known as the “Miami Port Case,” and was followed closely by the media. After a lengthy trial, Mr. Quinon obtained from the jury a verdict of not guilty on all counts. The same client was also separately criminally charged by the State of Florida with 42 counts of violating state campaign laws. Mr. Quinon resolved the state charges with a dismissal of all felony charges, and the client ultimately was reinstated in his government job.
Kidnapping
Mr. Cancio, a Cuban commercial airline pilot, flew a Cuban airliner with more than 40 passengers aboard to Miami International Airport. The Cuban security guards on board the plane claimed to have been kidnapped, and the United States government threatened to bring charges for hijacking the airplane, assault, and kidnapping the passengers. Mr. Quinon led a team of lawyers that presented legal, political and policy reasons to the United States Attorney’s Office in Miami, and ultimately persuaded the prosecutors not to prosecute Mr. Cancio.
Manslaughter
This was Mr. Quinon’s first case to go to jury trial after he left the State Attorney’s Office, and it wound up in the front page of the Miami Herald. This was one of the four cases that became known as the Miami Riot Cases, which received high publicity since they involved shootings by police officers in sectors of the community that later rioted in protest. Officer Urtiaga was charged with manslaughter for shooting a suspect in the back with a shotgun, while trying to search him. A highly publicized jury trial took place, with portions of the trial appearing on television. The jury found the officer not guilty.
Extortion
Dubbed one of the “most tortuous public corruption cases in Dade history,” Mr. Quinon tenaciously fought and won against federal prosecutors on behalf of Hialeah mayor, Raul Martinez, not once, but twice. After winning an appeal that granted the mayor a new trial following convictions for federal extortion and racketeering charges, Mr. Quinon’s first trial for the mayor resulted in a hung jury, with 11 jurors favoring acquittal. Determined to secure a conviction, federal prosecutors tried the case yet a third time. For the third trial, Mr. Quinon secured from the jury a not guilty as to one count of the counts, and deadlocked them on all others, forcing federal prosecutors to finally give up, and freeing the mayor after 6 years and 3 jury trials.
