Ciccarelli Law Offices defends people charged with all types of violent crimes. If you have been accused of any violent and serious crime, including aggravated assault, robbery, murder, or rape, it is important to speak with a knowledgeable attorney immediately. Because of his extensive experience representing individuals charged with such offenses, Lee Ciccarelli and the Ciccarelli Criminal Defense Team knows how fight your case at trial, get illegally obtained evidence suppressed, negotiate lower charges, alternatives to prison time, and reduced sentences.
We have successfully defended individuals charged with: Simple Assault, Aggravated Assault, Arson, Homicide by vehicle DUI, Reckless Endangerment, Stalking, Harassment, Terroristic Threats, Drunk Driving, Burglary, Robbery, and Breaking and Entering, Manslaughter, Felony Murder, Rape, Sex Crimes, Internet and Computer Crimes Kidnapping, Domestic Violence and Spousal Abuse.
Assault Charges can happen to anyone, and not just to the neighborhood bully. Whether initiated by alcohol, drugs, or a relationship, in a bar fight, or road rage, a sporting event such as a fight with a Giants fan at an Eagles game, a dispute with your spouse, girlfriend or in law or argument with your neighbors, you or your family could be charged with assault even if you doe not start or initiate the fight. All too often, you or at the mercy of the snap judgment of a police officer taking an angry, motivated, vengeful or prejudiced witness, ex girlfriend, spouse or enemy over your word.
When evidence and guilt is not in question, extenuating circumstances may convince the court to either reduce the charges against you or the sentence you face. As your assault lawyer, I work with prosecutors in exploring alternative sentencing options when a plea of "guilty" may be in your best interest. In certain cases where provocation, a medical condition, or alcohol is involved, it may be possible to avoid jail or a heavy fine in exchange for a promise to get counseling, provide community service, and agree to probation.
While there are no guarantees in criminal defense law, understanding your rights and the legal options available to you can improve your chances when defending yourself. As a criminal defense attorney with years of experience in our criminal justice system, I understand how to negotiate with the court, how to identify questionable police conduct and suspicious testimony, and prevent clients from making certain kinds of mistakes.
