Don't Let An Assault Charge Define Your Life

Assault charges arise from a wide variety of situations, including family disputes and fights between strangers. The facts of each case are different. If you have been accused of assault, you need a criminal defense attorney on your side to protect your rights and tell your side of the story.


Whether you are charged with simple assault or aggravated assault, the consequences of a conviction are serious. Under Arizona law, simple assault is typically a misdemeanor, and aggravated assault is a felony. The possible penalties for either kind of charge include jail time, fines and probation. Don't simply plead guilty. Talk to me first. I can explain your options and fight on your behalf.


If you are not a U.S. citizen, an assault conviction could lead to deportation, even if you were not sentenced to jail. Green card holders often turn to me for legal help with resolving criminal matters and the resulting immigration issues.
