Aggravated assault is the charge for recklessly causing a serious injury. It can involve a weapon, object, or a vehicle. As part of our focus on traffic violations and DUI, we handle aggravated assault cases involving motor vehicles. Aggravated assault with a motor vehicle is a felony with a mandatory five to fifteen years in prison if convicted. This is a serious charge, so you will want a comprehensive defense from the start.
Building an Aggravated Assault Defense
The weakest element in most Aggravated Assault cases is the legal standard of recklessness, and we try to attack this aspect of the charge. What is reckless is not determined by statute. It is determined by the jury. We understand how to communicate effectively to juries. Not every accident is a crime. We make sure the jury understands the difference between a crime and an accident. Experience in arguing these issues can be the difference between years of prison and innocence.
