Phoenix Violent Crime Lawyers

Put a Proven Violent Crime Defense Attorney on Your Side

Most violent crimes carry a presumption of prison time. If prosecutors can prove "dangerous allegations" that heighten the charges, you may face a mandatory prison sentence. More than 25,000 violent crimes were reported across Arizona in 2012, and the people arrested for these crimes, be it murder or rape or aggravated assault, face serious criminal penalties.

If you have been charged with a violent crime in Phoenix, it is critical that your violent crime defense lawyer has the experience and skill to fight these charges and help you avoid a conviction or minimize the consequences.

Crimes that might otherwise be a high-level misdemeanor or low-level felony can be charged as major felonies if dangerous allegations are present.

Any of these dangerous allegations automatically escalate violent crimes to mandatory prison time, even on a first offense. Even in plea negotiations, the prosecution will usually demand the minimum prison time:

Use of a deadly weapon – using or carrying a gun while committing a crime
Use of a dangerous instrument – can include a knife, baseball bat, beer bottle, etc.
Serious bodily injury – life-threatening or lasting injuries caused by violence
