Simple Assault
Simple assault is a common charge brought in cases where a person is accused of causing or threatening bodily harm to another. In Nevada, simple assault is charged as a misdemeanor. To be convicted, the prosecution must prove the defendant intended to cause bodily harm and had the ability to do so. We challenge the prosecution's evidence of intent and ability to establish reasonable doubt.
Aggravated Assault
Aggravated assault involves assault with a deadly weapon or assault that results in serious bodily injury. This is a felony charge in Nevada that carries substantial prison time. Our defense strategies include self-defense claims, challenging witness testimony, and disputing the severity of any alleged injuries.
Sexual Assault
Sexual assault charges are among the most serious offenses in the Nevada criminal code. A conviction can result in lengthy prison sentences and mandatory sex offender registration. Our attorneys handle these cases with the utmost discretion and fight aggressively to protect your rights and reputation.
Domestic Violence Battery
Battery charges in a domestic violence context carry mandatory minimum sentences in Nevada. Even a first conviction results in mandatory jail time. We understand the complex dynamics of domestic situations and provide strategic defense against domestic battery charges.
