Max Miner on how treatment before sentencing can change a criminal case

A 63-second clip from Miner's sit-down at the Juice Unlocked studio, shown split-screen under the caption "Get out of jail free card?" The top half is a close-up of Miner in a dark suit; the bottom is a wide shot of him and the host at a table, with the neon Juice Unlocked sign and The Injury Firm logo behind them. Miner explains that treatment and mitigation before sentencing can change the outcome even when someone faces 10 to 15 years, then stresses it only works if you get sober and turn your life around.

Max Miner, president and CEO of Executive Treatment Solutions (ETS), sat down at the Juice Unlocked studio to explain what people facing serious charges can do before sentencing. His message: treatment and mitigation, done for real, can change how a case ends.

Miner says he speaks from experience. He told Juice Unlocked he should still be in prison, and credits doing the work on his own case for the reason he is not.

Not a free pass

Miner is clear that it takes effort: getting sober and turning your life around, authentically. He says he has yet to have a client it did not work for. That is his claim, and every case is different.

ETS describes itself as a national provider of court-approved rehabilitation plans. In a 2025 press release, the company said it works with criminal defense attorneys and individuals directly, and that its plans include therapy, drug and alcohol testing, educational programs and detailed reporting.

“A lot of people don't know that even when it looks really impossible and you're looking at 10, 15 years, if you use treatment and mitigation in the right way, you can literally get out of jail free card.”

“I should still be in prison, but because I navigated it the right way and I did it, I did the things that I needed to do, that's the only reason that I'm here.”

“You got to work for it. Let's not get it confused.”
