Stay Out of Jail
More often than not, incidents of Common Assault involve Drugs and/or Alcohol, and for that reason our Drug & Alcohol Crime Lawyers represent persons facing this charge on a regular basis.
The charge of Common Assault is considered by the Courts of Queensland to be one of a contempt for the laws of Queensland, one which shows that the particular person in question believes that 'the laws do not apply to them'.
Common Assault penalties in Queensland reflect this.
In the instance where a person charged with Common Assault represents themselves, or appears at court with a lawyer who does not specialise in Qld Drug & Alcohol Crime, the Magistrate or Judge will only hear a comprehensive set of submissions from the Prosecutor, and they will be exposing themselves to greater Common Assault penalties.
Specialist Queensland Drug & Alcohol Crime Lawyer
It is impossible for an unrepresented person, or a lawyer who practices in multiple areas of law, to be as well versed in the Drug & Alcohol penalties and laws of Queensland as a Court Prosecutor.
Accordingly, if you value your freedom, you too need a specialised Drug & Alcohol Crime Lawyer.
A first time Common Assault offender faces a maximum penalty of 3 years imprisonment.
We ordinarily get both first time offender and repeat offender clients a fine only, without any imprisonment.
Where clients face the very real risk of imprisonment, we frequently obtain wholly suspended sentences, and sentences with immediate parole, meaning client with this outcome do not actually go to jail.
