Criminal Defense Investigation. Strategic Mitigation.
Early, integrated case development for defense teams nationwide.
Comet Mitigation partners with state and federal criminal defense teams from initial investigation through trial and sentencing — providing strategic continuity across every stage of a case.
Our role is not limited to a single phase. We integrate investigation, case development, client engagement, and mitigation into one coordinated framework, reducing fragmentation and strengthening overall defense strategy.
The earlier we’re engaged, the stronger the continuity.
Our Results
Founder Julia Milan began her career as a CJA paralegal on complex, high-stakes RICO cases in the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York. She later transitioned into private investigation and sentencing mitigation, and now works nationwide in state and federal criminal defense, including habeas corpus matters. Comet Mitigation is based in Anchorage, Alaska.
Through strategic trial support, deep-dive investigation, and comprehensive mitigation development, our work has contributed to dismissals, not-guilty verdicts, and substantially reduced sentences.
We bring persistence, discretion, and precision to every case — regardless of posture or complexity.
“I would exchange a co-counsel and a team of four experts for Julia to be present with me to try a case.”
