1. Avoid an Assault and Battery conviction! An experienced Michigan Assault and Battery Attorney can defend your case in a Jury Trial or Dismissal without any additional risk. Trial requires lengthy preparation but the words NOT GUILTY from a Judge’s mouth make it all worth while.
2. In the event that you plan on entering a No Contest or Guilty Plea, your Assault and Battery Lawyer ought to fight for a Cobbs Valuation/Plea from the Judge or a Killebrew Agreement with the Prosecutor for no jail time. Despite Judges tendency to claim that these options are not available in their courtrooms, we have successfully achieved both in the past. Some agreements can ensure your sentence prior to giving your plea to either Assault and Battery or a reduced charge. This will be discussed over the phone or during your free face-to-face consultation.

3. It is imperative that your Michigan Assault and Battery Attorney researches your case before your Sentencing.
