Aggravated assault charges are among the most serious violent offences in Canada and can carry lengthy prison sentences. These cases demand a focused and strategic defence from the very beginning.

Allegations of aggravated assault often involve serious bodily harm, high emotion, and complex evidence. These charges can arise from bar fights, domestic incidents, or altercations involving weapons. Because of the severity of potential penalties—including mandatory jail time—these cases require immediate, experienced legal attention. We take a tactical approach: examining medical evidence, scrutinizing witness accounts, and identifying potential self-defence or Charter breaches. Whether you’re accused of causing permanent injury or defending yourself in a chaotic moment, we’re equipped to build a defence aimed at avoiding conviction or reducing the severity of the outcome.
