Being accused of or charged with assault can be overwhelming to deal with. From keeping up with court dates to possibly losing certain rights such as being able to travel to certain places or possess a firearm, there are significant immediate drawbacks to being charged with assault. Depending on the severity of your alleged crime and the damage that was done, you may be looking at potential life-ruining charges that can ripple down and even affect your family. With so much on the line, you should consider reaching out to one of our experienced assault attorneys to help you get back on your feet and fight for your rights. Our team of criminal defense attorneys understands the impact an assault conviction can have on your life. We empathize with that, knowing that if we were standing in your shoes, we would do whatever it takes to fight back. We will fight on your behalf to ensure your life and your future aren’t affected by your charges and we will keep you informed every step of the way.

How Can an Assault Lawyer Defend Me?

There are many defenses that you may be able to use to combat your assault charges. A commonly used defense that an assault attorney can use on your behalf is claiming self-defense. If it is found that you caused someone else harm because you were trying to protect yourself or someone else, you may have your charges dropped entirely. Self-defense is not always the best approach to criminal defense but it may be beneficial for your case depending on your circumstances. Consult with an assault attorney first to see which legal options and defenses might be the best for your case.

Can an Assault Lawyer Help Me Get My Charges Reduced?

Many factors come into consideration when it comes to your assault charge. If you are a first time offender and if your charges aren’t too severe, an assault attorney may be able to come to an agreement with the prosecution to get your charges reduced. You may still have to serve a penalty but it can be significantly less than if you ended up convicted with your original charge.

Is Having an Assault Attorney Critical to Winning My Case?

Having an assault lawyer by your side from the get-go can be a huge bonus for you when starting your legal process. You should contact our law office immediately at (740) 363-3900 if you have been charged with assault so we can help you avoid any life-altering penalties.
