Perlet & Shiner, P.A. in West Palm Beach provides criminal defense for assault and battery charges which are two separate offenses, with assault being intentional threat of bodily harm by word or action and battery being intentional act of touching, striking or causing bodily harm to another person, terms often interchanged because battery commonly follows assault threats. Simple assault is second degree misdemeanor punishable by maximum 60 days jail if found guilty, but battery added to assault charges can range from first-degree misdemeanor to first-degree felony with greater consequences, requiring experienced West Palm Beach criminal attorneys at (561) 721-0552 for free initial consultation. Aggravating factors drastically increasing minimum sentences if convicted require experienced attorneys, with firm having handled assault and battery cases possessing experience and resources working toward acquittal or negotiating sentence reduction. In South Florida, battery on law enforcement officer arrests are common, occurring when stopped for traffic offenses if officers don’t like behavior or if resisting arrest or touching cops leads to battery of LEO arrests, which is serious offense. Assault and battery are among Florida’s most common crimes with prosecutors required to prove intent, making defenses often very defensible with right attorneys who are thorough and care about crafting defenses. Located at 1801 Centrepark Drive East, Suite 110 West Palm Beach, FL 33401, the firm features attorneys Heidi Perlet Esq., Marc Shiner Esq., Stephen Arbuzow Esq., and Andrew Newman Esq.
LunaLaw, LLC provides domestic violence defense understanding arrests lead to incredible hardship including arrest, protection orders immediately taking away firearm possession rights, ability to go home, sometimes ability to see children, plus conviction permanently removing firearm possession rights, requiring months of expensive treatment with jail time possibility. Fortunately, domestic violence charges are often defensible with attorneys having training and experience exposing case weaknesses, as law requires police making arrests when domestic violence alleged meaning police arrive focused on arrests instead of uncovering truth leading to jumping conclusions, making assumptions, ignoring evidence. LunaLaw expertly analyzes cases identifying police investigation shortcomings, often making arrests based on victim statements full of exaggerations or outright lies which will be exposed and used defending rights as no case stands when built on lies. Police often ignore valid self-defense claims which Brandon Luna helps prove using facts and evidence, with things happening hours or days before and after arrests potentially explaining and excusing actions while police assume history doesn’t matter but firm investigates fully. Located at 245 South Ave 81501 (970) 299-8053 and 300 Stafford Ln Ste 30249 81416 (970) 299-8053, both operating Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, the firm serves Delta and Grand Junction area clients throughout central Colorado, emphasizing Brandon Luna’s representation ensuring assumptions, baseless conclusions, and lack of investigation won’t unfairly convict clients.

Dan Carman and Attorneys fight for the rights of clients who have been victims of jail abuse or neglect in Kentucky, where around 11 million people are jailed annually in the United States with over 700,000 currently locked up, the majority unconvicted of crimes. The jail system faces significant problems including medical neglect when facilities fail to respond to inmates’ medical conditions leading to complications or death, mental health neglect requiring monitoring of suicidal inmates, overuse of force from staff or other inmates causing injuries, sexual abuse affecting around 10 percent of prisoners yearly, and wrongful death with over 900 annual jail deaths including suicide as the leading cause. From 2009 to 2015, more than 150 died in local Kentucky jails with causes ambiguously listed by the Department of Corrections according to Kentucky Center for Investigative Reporting, with fault potentially lying with the facility, administrators, or staff members directly responsible for inmates. Though inmates don’t enjoy the same rights as before incarceration, they retain fundamental liberties including free speech, religious practice, access to courts and counsel, and protection from cruel and unusual punishment under the U.S. Constitution, with most prison reform advocates agreeing prisoner rights aren’t being upheld in the current system. Located at 111 Church Street, Lexington, KY 40507, the firm can be reached at 859-685-1055 and is dedicated to helping those who have suffered abuse and neglect while incarcerated, investigating circumstances surrounding abuse to determine responsibility.
