STATE V. NEAL:
In a case that reached national and international news outlets, Attorney VanHo provided the defense for an Akron client who was facing kidnapping, felonious assault, and abduction charges.

STATE V. MCKENNEY:
A client in Cuyahoga County faced charges of kidnapping, attempted rape, and gross sexual imposition. Initially, the prosecutor wanted to pursue a mandatory life sentence, but Attorney VanHo’s investigations and advocacy led to the charges being lowered to a misdemeanor with a short probation sentence — no sex offender registration or jail time imposed.
STATE V. JONES:
In a case of national and international prominence, Attorney VanHo and the Ohio Innocence Project represented a client who had been convicted of murder and was under a life sentence.
