Assault & Domestic Violence
An assault allegation can carry serious consequences, including jail or prison time, restrictive conditions of release, and long-term effects on your personal and professional life. When a domestic violence allegation is involved, additional consequences may include no-contact orders and firearm restrictions.
At Clifftop Law, our Seattle and Snohomish County criminal defense attorneys understand the seriousness of these charges and move quickly to protect your rights.
Building a Strong Defense
Washington law recognizes several forms of assault, and the specific circumstances of an allegation can significantly affect the potential consequences. Our attorneys carefully investigate what happened, review evidence and witness accounts, and examine whether the prosecution can prove every element of the alleged offense beyond a reasonable doubt.
We understand that officers may form conclusions about who was responsible before all of the facts are known. Our job is to uncover the complete story and present the evidence that supports your defense. When appropriate, defenses such as self-defense may also play an important role.
