Fairfax, Virginia, Area Attorney for Assault Defense
Any assault or domestic violence case can be complex, and many are decided based on testimony from those directly involved. Because the consequences can be serious — with jail time a distinct possibility under most circumstances — it is essential to promptly contact an experienced criminal defense attorney.
Unfortunately, too many people charged with assault underestimate the likelihood of conviction and the impact it can have on their lives. With over 10 years of focused criminal defense experience, I will help you understand the laws and work with you to thoroughly assess your case.
You may be facing any of a range of assault charges arising from any type of argument, fight, domestic dispute or escalated misunderstanding. Providing personal attention from our initial consultation forward, I can defend you against charges such as:
- Assault & Battery
- Malicious/Unlawful wounding
- Domestic assault
For Any Domestic Assault Charge, an Experienced Lawyer Is Needed
Our Northern Virginia police and courts take domestic assault allegations very seriously. This is one of the rare situations where arrest without a warrant or material evidence is allowed, and "probable cause" is often very subjective.
A domestic assault conviction, even as a first-time offender, can result in severe penalties including prison time or a minimum of two years' probation. You may find your job opportunities more restricted and even face adverse consequences in a divorce or child custody dispute. If you do not believe you are guilty as charged — or simply want your side of the story considered — fighting this type of case is essential.
