Baltimore Assault Defense Lawyers

In Maryland, violent crimes that many people commonly refer to as “assault and battery” are all charged as varying degrees of assault. These are serious offenses that can result in significant penalties if you are convicted. In addition, a conviction can have far-reaching implications in your personal life when background checks for employment, housing or bank loans show you to be a violent criminal.

There is a lot at stake in assault cases, and it is important that you seek the advice of a qualified Maryland criminal defense lawyer. At the law firm of Engel Law Group, P.C., we defend clients against a wide array of charges for assault. Our Baltimore defense attorneys have substantial experience with these matters. We diligently pursue every available option in an effort to beat the charges against you.

Strong Defense Against All Types Of Assault

Accusations of assault can arise in many different ways. Assault involving a weapon, alleged shaken baby cases and even self-defense can all give rise to different levels of assault charges. We conduct a thorough review of your case and get your side of the story in order to gain a complete understanding of the incident that ultimately led to your arrest.

Many assault cases come down to the alleged aggressor’s word against that of the alleged victim. We work tirelessly to present the strongest possible defense in your case. Based on your account of the events, we work to show that any alleged use of force was justified given the circumstances.
