VIOLENT CRIMES DEFENSE LAWYERS IN BOSTON
PROTECTING YOUR RIGHTS & FIGHTING FOR YOUR FREEDOM

If you have been charged with assault or another violent crime, the stakes are high. A conviction can affect your job, your family, and your freedom. This is no time to rely on the services of an unproven or inexperienced defense attorney.

The experienced violent crime defense lawyers at Dhar Law, LLP have successfully represented clients against a wide range of violent crime charges. Backed by decades of experience, we conduct our own investigations and know how to find weak spots in the prosecution’s case against you. In some instances, our attorneys are able to get a case dismissed or the charges reduced. We also field a team of experienced litigators who are always ready to advocate aggressively on our clients’ behalf at trial if necessary.

We defend individuals against the full spectrum of violent crimes, including:

  • Homicide and attempted murder — Possible defenses include showing a lack of intent, mistaken identity, self-defense, or demonstrating some mitigating circumstances
  • Assault and battery — The penalties are severe, especially if someone is seriously injured or a dangerous weapon is used
  • Assault of a police officer — The term “assault” can be broadly interpreted in these cases. Conviction of assaulting a Massachusetts police officer while he or she is on the job carries the potential for stiffer penalties than other assault convictions.
  • Kidnapping — Any person who forcibly confines someone against their will may face charges of kidnapping
