Cincinnati Assault Charge Lawyer
Ohio Criminal Defense Lawyer
Assault can be charged as a felony or misdemeanor. Simple assault involves an allegation that you caused or attempted to cause physical harm to another. If you have been charged with assault, the evidence is not always clear. At the law office of Raymond T. Faller Co., LPA, when we work with someone accused of assault, we begin our own investigation into the facts. Assault charges carry serious penalties including jail time, fines, and restitution.
What happened? Was there actual physical harm involved or just a threat of harm? We want to get pictures of the crime scene, examine the forensic evidence, and talk to witnesses to prepare your defense. We look for evidence that may indicate that you took action in self-defense, as a response to another person threatening you with harm.
If it looks like you might have committed a crime, we will still try to find mitigating evidence to help us negotiate a settlement with the prosecutor that will allow you to plead guilty to a lesser charge or have your case dismissed. In most certain assault cases, expungement is possible to seal your criminal record.
