Frequently Asked Questions About Assault Defense
Q: What’s the difference between simple assault and aggravated assault?
A: Simple assault is typically a minor injury or threat; aggravated assault involves serious injury or a weapon, with much harsher penalties.
Q: Do I need a lawyer for a first-offense assault charge?
A: Yes. Even a first offense can have lifelong effects on your record and opportunities. Legal representation gives you the best chance for dismissal or reduction.
Q: Can self-defense be used in my case?
A: Yes. We evaluate whether self-defense applies and fight to help you avoid a wrongful conviction whenever justified by the facts.
Q: How soon should I call after an arrest or accusation?
A: Immediately. Early legal action increases the chances of a positive case result and ensures your rights are protected from the start.
Q: What happens if the alleged victim doesn’t want to press charges?
A: Only a prosecutor can drop charges, but a cooperative alleged victim can be helpful in your defense. We guide you through this process.
