Violent Crimes

Violent crimes are very serious and must be dealt with in a competent manner to minimize the possibility of years in jail, extensive probation, and significant fines.

Mark | Lavigne, LLC has an excellent track record of defending clients in matters involving assault charges and other violent crimes. Often, when tempers flare and a fight ensues, someone can get hurt. A violent crime may occur when a complete stranger behaves aggressively and someone is injured. Bar fights, parking lot disputes, or sporting event disagreements can result in individuals losing their cool and harming each other. However it arises, a violent crime charge is very serious and can lead to severe consequences, such as jail time, probation, fines and penalties, a criminal record, and the cost of legal defense.
