PRACTICING AREAS - Spousal or Domestic Assault

A conviction for any assault charge may have significantly affect your reputation and ability to obtain future employment in many occupations. Assault charges including more serious assault charges such as assault causing bodily harm and assault with a weapon are vigorously prosecuted in British Columbia and may result in a sentence of incarceration. We use every legal defence to protect our clients from the harsh consequences of a conviction for assault.

The government policy in British Columbia is to prosecute all family violence offences even if the victim wishes to drop the charges. We have been able in most cases to protect our clients from a criminal conviction.
