Assault

Texas Assault Charges Defense Lawyers

There is often much more to an assault case than what is in the police report. Typically, the only people who witness the assault are those involved. The police are called in later and attempt to assign responsibility, but what really happened isn't always clear.

If you or a loved one has been charged with assault, please contact Hill & Hill today for a free consultation. We will listen to your description of what happened to you, and work diligently so that you get the best possible outcome to your case, which may mean getting the charges dropped or reduced.

Listening to Your Side of the Story and Building a Strong Defense

It is an extremely common ploy for one spouse to falsely accuse the other of domestic violence in order to have him or her removed from the home. Road rage can bring out the worst in people. A bar fight can easily escalate into assault charges. An assault charge can also stem from attempts to defend yourself from an attack. Whatever your situation, our firm will listen to your side of the story. We will understand the sequence of events from your perspective.
