Aggressive Pursuit of Your Acquittal or a Reduced Charge by a Newark Simple Assault Attorney

No one wants an assault charge on his or her criminal record. If you are facing an aggravated assault charge, that can mean up to 10 years in prison. I will pursue all legal means possible of obtaining a dismissal, acquittal or plea to a reduced charge, depending on your needs and personal circumstances.

I have the experience and legal knowledge to represent you in Municipal Court or Superior Court. Understanding that any assault case may be complex, I am committed to investigating and proving what happened and why. You can depend on a thorough investigation and tenacious pursuit of your best interests in your case arising from:

• A fight with another person, resulting in relatively minor injuries
• A domestic dispute with a spouse or other family member, sometimes resulting in other legal problems involving restraining orders
• Your alleged use of a weapon such as a gun or knife
• An altercation with a police officer, such as an attempt to arrest you that escalated into physical contact
