What Constitutes a Violent Crime?

Violent crimes are criminal acts involving the use or threat of physical force against another person. These charges often carry severe penalties, especially if weapons or aggravated circumstances are involved.
Our firm defends clients accused of:

  • Assault and Battery: Including simple assault, aggravated assault, and battery involving weapons.
  • Homicide: Charges ranging from manslaughter to first-degree murder.
  • Domestic Violence: Allegations of abuse or harm within a household or intimate relationship.
  • Armed Robbery: Crimes involving theft with the use of weapons or threats.
  • Kidnapping: Unlawful detention or abduction of another person.
  • Sexual Assault: Physical and non-consensual acts of violence.

The High Stakes of a Violent Crime Charge

Violent crime convictions can carry some of the harshest penalties in the legal system. These include:

  • Lengthy Prison Sentences: Many violent crimes carry mandatory minimum sentences.
  • Hefty Fines: Substantial financial penalties that can lead to financial hardship.
  • Lifelong Criminal Record: A conviction can limit your job opportunities, housing options, and more.
  • Reputation Damage: Public accusations alone can damage your standing in your community and professional life.

At LibertyBell Law Group, we understand what’s at stake and fight relentlessly to protect your rights and freedom.

Our Proven Defense Strategies

Defending against violent crime charges requires skill, experience, and strategic thinking. Our defense strategies include:

  • Proving Self-Defense: Demonstrating that your actions were justified to protect yourself or others.
  • Discrediting Witness Testimony: Highlighting inconsistencies or motives for false accusations.
  • Challenging Evidence: Exposing flaws in forensic or physical evidence presented by the prosecution.
  • Plea Negotiations: Securing reduced charges or penalties when a trial is not in your best interest.
  • Building a Strong Trial Defense: Presenting compelling arguments, expert testimony, and evidence to a jury.

Recent Case Successes

  • Murder Charges – Acquitted: Secured a not-guilty verdict for a client accused of first-degree murder after proving critical flaws in the prosecution’s evidence.
  • Assault with a Deadly Weapon – Reduced Charges: Negotiated a plea deal that eliminated the risk of prison time for a client facing aggravated assault charges.
  • Domestic Violence – Charges Dismissed: Demonstrated lack of evidence and witness credibility, resulting in a full dismissal of charges.
  • Armed Robbery – Not Guilty: Achieved a trial victory by exposing procedural errors and inconsistent witness statements.

A Violent Crime Charge – Your Life on the Line | LibertyBell Law Group

⚠️ A Violent Crime Charge – Your Life on the Line

One wrong move could cost you everything. Step inside the nightmare of a criminal trial.

🚔 Scene 1: The Arrest

The flashing red and blue lights blind you. Officers grab your arms and throw you to the ground. **"You’re under arrest for assault."** **"For what? I was defending myself!"** It doesn’t matter. They aren’t listening. **You're going to jail.**

🎙️ Scene 2: The Police Interrogation

You sit in a cold room. A detective leans in. **"We know what you did. Tell us your side, and maybe we can help."** Every fiber of your being wants to explain, but you remember—**anything you say can be twisted against you.** Do you stay silent? Or do you fall into their trap?

⚖️ Scene 3: The Prosecutor Builds Their Case

The district attorney isn’t playing fair. **They want a conviction. They want a win.** They parade **witnesses with inconsistent stories, blurry security footage, and biased experts.** **It doesn’t matter if you were defending yourself—without a strong defense, you’re guilty.**

🚨 Scene 4: The "Plea Deal" Trap

Weeks later, your lawyer hands you a letter. The **prosecutor offers you a deal**: **"Take 15 years in prison, or risk life behind bars if convicted."** You’re innocent. But **do you risk it?** **What if the jury gets it wrong?** **The system isn’t built for you—it’s built to convict.**

🚫 Scene 5: The Jury Decides Your Fate

The courtroom is silent. The judge asks, **"Has the jury reached a verdict?"** Your hands shake. **This moment will define the rest of your life.** **"We, the jury, find the defendant…**" What happens next depends on your next move.
