How Can a Lawyer Help?
We may be able to get charges reduced by explaining the circumstances of your incident, especially if you have no criminal history or acted in self-defense. In the case of felony assault, we will investigate the incident in addition to reviewing evidence and talking to witnesses.
We represent individuals charged with misdemeanor or felony assault and battery involving the following offenses:
- Fights at bars, nightclubs or concerts
- Street fights
- Domestic violence
- Sexual assault and battery
- Assault and battery of a law enforcement officer
- School fights
If you are convicted of assault in California, you may face penalties that include a fine up to $1,000 and/or six months in jail. A battery conviction can include a fine up to $2,000 and/or one year in prison. Special circumstances may increase the penalties for either crime.
