Establishing A Defense Against Assault Charges

Assault is a charge that encompasses a wide range of offenses, from bar fights to violent disputes between family members. Whatever the nature of your alleged offense, and regardless of whether it was allegedly against a stranger or someone you know, you could face serious charges. These charges may carry even more serious penalties that could include jail time, large fines and a permanent criminal record.

We Will Work Hard To Protect Your Rights

While assault and battery charges are serious, there are defenses to such allegations that include misidentification, accidents, self-defense or misunderstandings. In some cases, other factors, such as mental health issues, can cause a person to act out in a way that results in criminal charges.

Our firm carefully investigates claims in order to secure dismissals, reduced charges, acquittals or plea bargains that are in the best interests of our clients. While violent crimes are often the most difficult to defend, we are not afraid to challenge police reports and other evidence.
