Assault and Domestic Assault
Assault is serious criminal charge. A conviction for assault or domestic assault looks horrible on a job application and can be devastating to a person's employment opportunities. Convictions for Assaults resulting in serious bodily damage can result in significant jail and prison sentences. If you have been charged with assault in the Greater Seattle Metro or Greater Everett Area, call the law office of George T. Freeman in Everett, Washington at (425) 317-9000.
As a firm that includes former prosecutors, we understand how prosecutors and judges look at assault cases. We work diligently on your behalf to obtain a case dismissal, acquittal at trial, reduction of charges, or favorable plea bargain.
What if you are guilty of assault or domestic assault?
As experienced defense attorneys, we understand that not all clients are innocent. Even defendants who are guilty need an attorney to protect them against over charging or unduly harsh penalties. In some cases, the state simply does not have the evidence to sustain a conviction, even if you are guilty. As a defendant, you have no obligation to testify at your trial. If the state does not sustain their burden of proof, you will be acquitted.
One of the most important aspects of defending an assault case is developing theories of the case that justify leniency on the part of the prosecution and the judge. As experienced criminal defense attorneys, we study each of our client's cases to fully understand aggravating factors such as the use of a weapon or serious bodily damage to the alleged victim. We also work hard to develop an understanding of any mitigating factors that might exist. Experienced attorneys work hard to minimize focus on aggravating factors and maximize focus on mitigating factors.
What if you are wrongly accused of assault or domestic assault?
If you have been wrongly accused, do not assume that justice is always done. Criminal defense attorneys know all too well that innocent people can and do get convicted of crimes they did not commit. Juries can convict defendants based solely on circumstantial evidence. If most of the evidence points to you, you could be convicted regardless of your guilt or innocence. Do not play games with your life. Retain the best criminal defense attorney you can find. Our attorneys are experienced professionals with a proven track record of success in serious felony cases.
