Greenspoon Marder Defense Attorneys David Kubiliun and Michelle Kramer Secure Complete Acquittal in Case Carrying Mandatory Life Sentence 

November 9, 2026

Fort Lauderdale, Fla. – Nov. 9, 2026 – Greenspoon Marder white-collar and criminal defense attorneys David Kubiliun and Michelle Kramer secured a complete acquittal for their client, who faced a mandatory minimum sentence of life imprisonment. 

After more than two years of hard-fought litigation, a five-day trial, and four hours of jury deliberations, the defense team secured a complete victory, with the jury finding their client not guilty on every charge. 

Despite the high stakes and the prosecution’s refusal to consider polygraph evidence supporting their client’s innocence, Mr. Kubiliun and Ms. Kramer remained steadfast in their defense. Through thorough preparation, strategic advocacy, and effective courtroom presentation, they challenged the State’s case, highlighted weaknesses in the prosecution’s evidence, and helped secure the dismissal of three counts before trial. The jury ultimately acquitted their client on the remaining three charges. 

This result reflects the exceptional trial skills, tenacity, and unwavering commitment to their clients that define the firm’s white-collar and criminal defense practice. If he had been convicted, the client, who had no prior contact with law enforcement, would have faced a mandatory minimum sentence of life in prison. Instead, he was fully acquitted and left the courtroom cleared of all charges.
