A History of Success in Federal Sentencing

Since the early 2005 Supreme Court decision in Booker, Nathans & Ripke LLP attorneys have received sentences below the final Federal Sentencing Guideline range, based on variant sentencing findings or downward departures and/or other factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) in cases not involving cooperation with law enforcement, for almost every sentenced client.
