Domestic Assault Defense Lawyer

Serving the entire Twin Cities Metro Area

There are five levels of assault offenses under Minnesota law, and convictions for first and second degree assault generally result in commitment to prison. Fifth degree and first time domestic assault charges are generally misdemeanor level offenses, but can have strict consequences.

Specifically, U.S. Citizens convicted of a misdemeanor domestic assault face the loss of their 2nd amendment right to bear arms. A conviction for a misdemeanor domestic assault for a non-citizen, legal alien can result in immediate deportation by the INS.

Any person charged with an assault should immediately talk to an experienced attorney regarding possible legal defenses that may be applicable in his or her case. It is particularly important to contest the charges that have been filed in an assault case and to secure good legal representation.
