Experienced Virginia Attorneys Defending You Against Violent Crime Charges
Being arrested and charged with assault and battery is a serious matter. A criminal record could easily derail your entire life, future job prospects and the family and personal relationships you value. This is a too serious matter to trust your criminal defense to inexperienced attorneys.
We handle hundreds of violent crime cases every year. Our Richmond assault defense lawyers will do everything possible to minimize the damage to your life. We take our clients' matters very seriously.
Two Sides to Every Criminal Defense Case
In every criminal defense case, there is a collaborative aspect — focusing on everyone working together in the most agreeable fashion possible — and there is a combative aspect, fighting to the very end for the best result possible. Whether the situation calls for collaboration or aggressive litigation, we are prepared to do whatever it takes within the bounds of the law to get the best outcome for our clients.
We approach these cases in a collaborative manner, because this helps save families, friendships and other important relationships for our clients. This collaborative approach includes trying to negotiate with the other parties, calling the victims and working with the prosecutor to reach a potential plea agreement.
When the collaborative approach doesn't work, we grit our teeth and fight tenaciously for our clients' rights. While we can't promise specific results, we can promise that no court in the land will take advantage of your rights as long as we can do something about it.
Facing Criminal Charges? Remain Silent!
If you have any police contact regarding your possible criminal involvement — an arrest, formal criminal charges, the police knocking on your door to just "ask you a few questions" — the best advice we can give you is be quiet! Exercise your right to remain silent, or your words can and will be used against you in a court of law. Talk to your lawyer before you even consider talking to the police.
