Assaults & Self-Defense
They Threw the First Punch — Now You're Fighting for Your Freedom.
You defended yourself.
You were protecting someone else.
Or maybe it didn’t happen the way they said at all.
But now?
You're facing a serious assault charge — and the system is coming down hard.
Assault Cases Are High-Stakes
You could be looking at:
Permanent Felony Record
Years in State Prison
Loss of Employment, Housing, or Immigration Status
Orders of Protection Barring You From Your Home or Work
And all of this... based on one person’s version of a chaotic moment.
That’s where I come in.
Self-Defense Is a Right — Not a Crime

The key is presenting it strategically and credibly.

Why Self-Defense Is So Easy To Say - But So Hard To Prove

Showing your fear was real
Proving your force was reasonable
Telling your story in a way that a judge or jury understands and believes
