Self-Defense in Assault and Battery Cases

In most cases of assault, the altercation arose after verbal abuse, a threat or other encounter. In many of these instances, the alleged attacker was only acting in self-defense. Our attorneys will interview witnesses, review police reports, medical documentation, and examine the prior history between the two parties. When our client was responding to the threats or actions of an alleged victim, our goal is to demonstrate to the court and the prosecution that the defendant acted in self-defense.

Our Portland assault and battery attorneys are experienced in cases involving:

  • Threats and physical attacks
  • Domestic abuse
  • Assault with a weapon
  • Harmful or serious bodily injury
  • Aggravated assault
