In assault and battery cases involving serious injury or serious threats of injury to the victim, the prosecution often takes an aggressive stance and seeks significant criminal penalties.

Assault-Related Charges And Issues
Sometimes an assault charge is combined with other types of criminal charges or legal issues. For example, if you are accused of domestic violence or domestic assault, you may also have a restraining order filed against you. If you are accused of assault with a deadly weapon during a robbery, you could be facing separate charges for both crimes.
I can help you understand the charges you are facing and the potential penalties you face. I will help you fight those charges and resolve the legal issues you face as a result of your arrest.
