"I take a personal interest in my clients," says criminal defense lawyer Tina Sypek D'Amato
of Hartford, Danielson, Manchester, Rockville, New Britain, and Norwich. "My experience in
the Public Defender's Office helps me negotiate for my clients fairly without taking unfair
settlements while simultaneously counseling my clients so that they can learn from their
mistakes."
Recently, Tina was successful in getting two indictments in
Federal Court dismissed on behalf of her client. This was accomplished by spending a good
amount of time discussing the case with her client, reading the discovery given to her by the U.S.
Attorney, using the "willful blindness" defense in combination with a polygraph and utilizing
diligent communication with the U.S. Attorney.
In another case, where a sixteen year-old client was charged with
raping an eight year old child, Tina was not only successful in negotiating a plea bargain
which would entail pleading to a risk of injury without the sexual component; thereby eliminating
the need to register as a sex offender, but she was also able to get the plea to be taken under the
Youthful Offender Statute so that when the Defendant turned 21 years of age, his record would be
erased!
In another case involving the charges of interstate transportation with intent to sell over 50 lbs of marijuana, Tina was successful in getting her client an
eighteen month sentence with probation and the co-defendant, his long term girlfriend, was given AR,
Accelerated Rehabilitation, a program which allows for the complete erasure of her record if she
successfully completes the program.
In another case involving a charge of Larceny in the First Degree, Tina was able to get her client
Accelerated Rehabilitation with the provision that her client pay restitution in the amount stolen
within the bounds of the two year program.
In another case where a man was charged with possession of narcotics
with intent to sell, possession of narcotics within 1,500 feet of a school zone, and two
counts of assault on a police officer Tina was able to get her client the Community Service Labor
Program to dispose of the drug charges and her client pled to two counts of Interfering with a
police officer; a misdemeanor.
In another case where a serial rapist was charged with yet another rape, and his DNA was present,
Attorney D'Amato was successful in negotiating a plea where the defendant pled to third degree sexual assault, with a 2 year cap and the understanding that
sentencing would be postponed until the Defendant finished school, and if he successfully completed
school without getting into further problems, he would get one year.
In another case involving charges of reckless driving, possession of a gun in a motor vehicle,
possession of a firearm without a permit and DUI, The Law office of Tina Sypek D'Amato was able to
negotiate the use of 2 programs, Alcohol Education Program and Accelerated Rehabilitation in order
to save this first time offender from conviction and mandatory deportation.
In a case where the client was charged with raping a 15 year-old client and forcing her to have sex
and perform sexual favors for others, Tina was able to negotiate a plea which involved a conviction
for non-sex related risk of injury and then worked with the Parole Board to make sure he was
eligible for release at 50%.
In a case where a client was charged with driving under suspension where his license had been
suspended due to a DUI, and he was facing 30 days mandatory minimum, Tina was successful in getting
the charges dismissed.
