Our team of Van Nuys criminal defense attorneys has handled thousands of assault cases over the years throughout Los Angeles County ranging from simple assault charges to aggravated assault, assault with a deadly weapon and other serious felonies. Based on our experience, this blog briefly touches on what we’ve seen over the past 20+ years and what we anticipate in the future.
First and foremost, to answer the biggest question: If you are facing charges for assault whether in Van Nuys or anywhere else in California, how do you find the best criminal defense attorney? The simple answer: Hire a lawyer/firm that has deep experience in those particular charges and at the same time has successfully defended many cases in the past. And ultimately, a criminal attorney that truly has your back and is looking out for you.
Secondly, as we’ve mentioned in previous content (in blogs, on podcasts, etc.) there’s a human trait, especially in business, that gravitates towards telling people what you’re going to do in the future though many times that doesn’t have any validity based on the past. For example, imagine a personal injury attorney being the top of their game then all of the sudden deciding to defend you in a criminal case related to assault charges. With your life/future on the line would you trust that? Probably not.
Lastly, whether looking at assault charges or any other type of criminal offenses, now is not the time to cheap out because as we mentioned above your life is truly on the line. And as the classic saying goes: “You get what you pay for.”
