Clark County Assault Defense Lawyer
Felony charges for assault with a deadly weapon mean that you will be facing prosecution as a violent offender. The judge will be under a mandate for a minimum prison sentence and the prosecutor has the option of seeking the longest sentence possible. If you or a member of your family has been charged with assault with a deadly weapon, make sure your criminal defense attorney truly understands what is at stake.
Police are quick to charge assault and add a deadly-weapons charge, even if physical harm was not intended. When police are called to the scene of a disturbance, it is often expedient to place the parties under arrest and bring everyone to the police station. If you were carrying a gun or knife when you became involved in a bar fight or other altercation, but there was no criminal intent at assault, an experienced defense lawyer at the Oronoz Law Offices will do everything possible to dismiss the felony weapons charges and resolve the issue with the prosecutor, without charges or penalty. In many cases, we can find a diversion program for education or training. Upon successful completion, your charges will be dismissed and your record will stay clear of a conviction.
