Understanding the charges
Many people facing assault or battery charges find themselves in this situation unexpectedly: getting in a bar fight; using physical force against someone in order to protect personal property; making physical contact with another person perceived to be an act of violence.
Defending an individual charged with assault or battery requires a thorough understanding of the legal technicalities of these charges. Our law firm will actively investigate the charges to determine all possible defenses: was the defendant acting in self-defense? Did the defendant act reasonably in the situation? Was the defendant defending another person or their own personal property? After we understand the charges a client is facing, we can immediately begin crafting an aggressive defense.
