Charges of assault and battery will be aggressively pursued by Dallas prosecutors who wish to curb violent crime in the area. With that in mind, you will need to do everything in your power to protect your future right now, while it is still possible to do so. One of the most important things you can do to protect yourself from here on out will be to invoke your right to silence and to retain legal representation.
If the prosecutor alleges that a deadly weapon was involved in the incident, the potential penalties of your conviction may be significantly compounded.
