Torrance Battery Defense LawyersIf you have been arrested for battery, you should contact a battery defense attorney at McGregor & Ernenwein immediately to discuss your case. Our aggressive certified specialist criminal defense lawyers have been successfully representing defendants accused of battery and other serious crimes since 1987. Battery is defined as “using physical force to harm a person.” The actual harm can be physical, emotional, or sexual; but it must be intentional to be considered battery. Serious physical injuries need not be present for charges to be brought against the perpetrator; there needs to be only minimal harm for an arrest to be made. The following are all forms of battery:
If you have been charged with battery, you are facing serious legal repercussions. For instance, California Penal Code Section 243 (a) states that any person convicted of battery may be forced to pay up to $2,000 in fines and may be incarcerated for up to 6 months. Depending upon the circumstances of the battery, a convicted person may face much more serious charges, such as more time in country jail and hefty fines. For example, California Penal Code 245 (a) states that battery that causes “serious bodily injury” will result in a fine of up to $10,000 and not more than 4 years in prison. It is extremely important that you hire a skilled and aggressive battery defense attorney. Your future and freedom rely on the ability of your defense attorney to use expert legal tactics, procedures, defenses, and any other means necessary to prove your innocence. The battery defense attorneys at McGregor & Ernenwein may be able to have your battery charges dropped, your sentenced reduced, or arrange for an alternative sentence.
