The High Stakes Involved In Violent Crime Charges
Violent crimes are, more often than not, felony offenses. A conviction for one may lead to years of prison time. Even those violent crimes that are misdemeanors, such as simple assault and battery, carry some of the highest possible sentences for offenses at that level.
A conviction for the following offenses will lead to these corresponding punishments:
Assault And Battery
- Simple assault: Up to six months in county jail
- Simple battery: Up to six months in county jail
- Battery causing serious bodily injury: Up to a year of imprisonment in county jail
Manslaughter
- Voluntary manslaughter: Three to 11 years in state prison
- Involuntary manslaughter: Two to four years in state prison
Murder
- Second-degree murder: 15 years to life in state prison
- First-degree murder: 25 years to life in state prison
Robbery
- Second-degree robbery (without use of a firearm/deadly weapon): Two to five years in state prison
- First-degree robbery (with use of firearm/deadly weapon or causing great bodily injury): Three to nine years in state prison
Sex Crimes
- Rape: Three to eight years in state prison
- Lewd acts with a child under 14: Three to eight years in state prison
- Continuous sexual abuse of a child: Six to 16 years in state prison
Whether you face charges for sex crimes, murder or manslaughter, assault or another violent crime, we will aggressively represent you in court and fight for your rights.
