Aggravated assault in Miami
At Stroleny Law, P.A., we know that there are quite a few situations that can lead to violence and a subsequent assault charge, and it does not necessarily have to be your fault. You might have been trying to avoid the situation but ultimately could not. The law in the state of Florida recognizes various types and degrees of assault; if the assault in question is serious enough because of the circumstances, the defendant will be charged with aggravated assault which carries much greater consequences if the defendant is found to be guilty. The penalties for an aggravated assault charge are so potentially serious that they can land you in prison for years and damage your life and those of your loved ones severely, and that is why you need to talk to a criminal defense attorney as soon as possible.
Possible defenses for an aggravated assault charge
At Stroleny Law, P.A., we understand that an aggravated assault case is seldom as straightforward as it might seem at first. Our attorney, Julian Stroleny, worked for the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office as an Assistant State Attorney straight out of law school so he knows the law from both sides and that gives him special experience that not all criminal defense attorneys have. Not all aggravated assault cases are the same and some of the possible defenses that Julian Stroleny can employ in your defense include self-defense, stand your ground, lack of intent, defense of other individuals, and various others.
