The offence of Common assault in the circumstances of Aggravation or Racial Aggravation is in section 313 of the Criminal Code ( \u201cCode\u201d) \u00a0in Western Australia.

Have the Police accused you of Aggravated Assault? Our experienced criminal defence lawyers can arrange a confidential conference with you to answer your important questions.<\/p>\n

We are criminal lawyers who specialise in criminal defence work and have dealt with many cases of Aggravated Assault.<\/p>\n

Police interview<\/h5>\n

It is important that you receive legal advice before speaking with Police. We can advise you about what should be said during a Police interview. You may want to know \u2013 should I make a statement to Police? Should I attend a Police interview? Do I need to give my DNA? Will the Police leave me alone if I explain my side of the story? Will I be remanded?<\/p>\n

If the Police want to speak with you about an allegation of Aggravated Assault, speak with an experienced lawyer first. Anything you tell the Police without advice can make running a defence in Court more difficult later on.<\/p>\n

We can also attend the Police station with you if you feel more comfortable having someone on your side.<\/p>\n

Pleading not guilty<\/h5>\n

We are defence lawyers who specialise in assaults and we can devise a case strategy for you. We work very closely with Senior counsels and experienced barristers, who run our contested hearings and trials who can get involved from the beginning if you are accused of Aggravated Assault.<\/p>\n

In a case like this, you want a lawyer who is going to consider \u2013 Is there relevant CCTV footage? Is there DNA evidence? Are there people who the Police have not spoken to who can shed some light on this case? Is there exonerating evidence which needs to be preserved?<\/p>\n

The answer to these questions can lead to a charge of Aggravated Assault being withdrawn before the contested hearing or an acquittal.<\/p>\n

We believe it is very important for our clients to understand what they are facing. Preparing a case strategy early will increase the chances of this charge being withdrawn or leading to an acquittal.<\/p>\n

Pleading guilty<\/h5>\n

If you are pleading guilty to Aggravated Assault, we can advise you how to prepare your plea to get the possible outcome in Court. We will help you to arrange reports and documents that will help avoid a prison sentence. Call us and discuss how to get the best result<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
