Be Cautious
Pretrial diversion is not an option in every case. Serious offenses — such as violent crimes, sexual offenses, and those tied to organized gang activity — are generally excluded from eligibility.
However, many individuals facing non-violent charges may still qualify, even if they are unaware of it at first. At Executive Treatment Solutions (ETS), we partner with defense attorneys to review eligibility, gather supporting records, and demonstrate compliance, giving clients the best possible chance of being accepted into a pretrial diversion program.
