The Charge

What You Are Facing

ARS § 13-1203, § 13-1204

Assault can be a misdemeanor or a felony

Simple assault is a misdemeanor, but aggravated assault is a felony. The line between them turns on details like injury, a weapon, or who the alleged victim was.

ARS § 13-2904

Disorderly conduct often gets added

Disorderly conduct, sometimes called disturbing the peace, is frequently tacked on, and it becomes a felony when a weapon is involved.

The report left out your side

These charges usually come from a chaotic moment, and the police often wrote down only the other person's version. Your side matters, and it is confidential with us.

Your Defense

How We Defend These Cases

Tell the other side

Self-defense, defending someone else, and being provoked are real defenses, and the police report rarely captures them.

Test the accuser's account

Inconsistencies, motive to lie, and missing injuries can change everything about a case.

Protect your record

We work to reduce or dismiss so one night does not follow you, and we can clear an eligible record afterward. See pricing.

Common Questions

What People Ask First

What is the difference between assault and aggravated assault?

Aggravated assault is a felony and usually involves serious injury, a weapon, or a protected victim. Simple assault is a misdemeanor.

Can I claim self-defense?

Often, yes. If you were protecting yourself or someone else, that is a defense, and we build it with the details the report left out.

Will this stay on my record?

Not necessarily. We push to reduce or dismiss, and we can clear an eligible record afterward.
