FOCUSSING ON CRIMES INVOLVING ASSAULT

Being charged with a violent crime is serious. These crimes can result in severe penalties upon conviction, including incarceration in prison, steep fines, long probations, and a horrible mark on your permanent criminal record. These crimes are not only a threat to society, but they also put the lives and safety of the victims at incredible risk. There are numerous violent crimes in Texas. My office focusses on the following misdemeanors and lower level felony offenses:

  • Assault
  • Assault with Bodily Injury
  • Assault with a Deadly Weapon
  • Assaulting a Police Officer
  • Terroristic Threat

BEING CHARGED WITH ASSAULT –

One of the most common and heavily prosecuted violent crimes is assault causing bodily injury. Assault charges range from Class B misdemeanors to First Degree felonies. My office focusses primarily on misdemeanor assaults, as well as some felony assaults. If you have been accused of this offense, please contact my office today.

Assault charges may result if you intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly cause bodily injury to another (including injury to your spouse). You may also be charged with assault by intentionally or knowingly threatening another with bodily injury (including injury to your spouse), or intentionally or knowingly causing physical contact with another when such contact is deemed offensive or provocative. For more information regarding assaults against family members, please click here. If the alleged assault causes serious bodily injury or you use or exhibit a deadly weapon during the commission of the assault, you could be facing serious felony charges. As a Houston assault defense attorney, I have the experience and knowledge to represent you against this charge.

CONVICTIONS EQUATE TO HARSH PENALTIES –

Violent crimes include all levels of misdemeanors and felonies. As such, you may be facing 180 days in jail for a misdemeanor conviction and up to life in prison or the death penalty for a serious felony conviction. The penalties also increase if the offense is aggravated in any way with a weapon. To avoid significant penalties and learn your options, please contact my office today.
