Winning Against the Odds: What 18 Not Guilty Verdicts Really Mean

In the world of criminal defense, trial wins are rare—and not by accident. Over 90% of criminal cases in the U.S. never make it to trial. They end in plea deals, often because the odds in court are steep. When a case does go to trial, prosecutors win the majority of the time. The path to a “Not Guilty” verdict is narrow, uphill, and fiercely contested.

That's what makes this fact extraordinary: very few criminal defense attorneys nationwide can say they've secured more than 10 acquittals in jury trials.

Even fewer—likely less than 1%—can claim 18 NOT GUILTY VERDICTSfrom jury trials.

This isn't just a number. It's a testament to Sostenes Mireles II's courtroom experience, strategic thinking, cross-examination skill, and an unshakable commitment to protecting the presumption of innocence. Seventeen jury trial wins speak to years of earned trust—by clients, by juries, and by the justice system itself.

It's not just about being a lawyer. It's about being a trial lawyer—and one who consistently delivers when it matters most.
