How Jason Ronis Law Fights Assault Charges
Self-Defense If you were protecting yourself or someone else — that is a complete legal defense. Jason Ronis Law builds your self-defense argument from the very first day.
Challenging the Evidence Witness accounts change. Surveillance footage tells a different story. We look at everything — including whether the alleged victim’s account is consistent and believable.
Disputing Intent Assault requires intent. If the act was accidental or there was no actual threat of harm — the charge can be challenged or dismissed.
Keeping It a Misdemeanor If a felony assault charge was filed — we fight hard to keep it as a misdemeanor. That single difference changes your sentence, your record, and your future completely.
