Violent Crime Lawyer Wins Not Guilty Domestic Assault

A violent crime lawyer in Washington D.C. was retained to assist a woman who faced a cross complaint for assault filed by her estranged husband during a difficult divorce. Although she initially reported being assaulted, her husband immediately countered with claims that she initiated physical contact. Under D.C. Code § 22-404(a), even minimal physical contact may lead to simple assault charges, making credibility an essential consideration. Through careful assessment by a violent crime lawyer, the client ultimately obtained a complete dismissal and avoided a criminal record that could have influenced her family law case or employment prospects. A violent crime lawyer must be highly familiar with how domestic disputes overlap with criminal liability in Washington D.C., where courts closely analyze self defense, inconsistent testimony, and the presence or absence of corroborating injuries.
