Jacksonville Assualt Charge Defense Lawyers
A misunderstanding at your local bar. An irate driver. A drunk person at the beach. Involvement with any of these can potentially escalate into assault and battery charges. For example, when two people are involved in a bar fight, the “loser” might go to the hospital, while the “winner” gets arrested and charged with a crime. This can happen even if both people were equally involved in the fight and even if the “winner” was initially provoked by the “loser” to engage in the fight.
Assault and battery charges often arise from everyday situations gone wrong. Many times, my clients are people who are normally nonviolent and have acted uncharacteristically just this once. If you have been arrested for or charged with assault and battery, call 904-343-4556 to talk to me, The Law Office of Richard Landes, a Jacksonville assault charges lawyer, directly.
