Facing Assault Allegations in Bolton? Start Assembling Your Defence Now
If you are facing assault charges in Bolton or the surrounding Peel Region, it’s crucial to speak with a seasoned defence lawyer as early as possible. Early involvement can have a major impact on the outcome. At Daley, Byers, we bring the insight and litigation skills needed to guide you through the justice system confidently.
Types of Assault Charges We Defend
We defend a wide range of offences under the Criminal Code of Canada, such as:
- Simple Assault – s. 266
- Assault with a Weapon – s. 267(a)
- Assault Causing Bodily Harm – s. 267(b)
- Choking or Strangulation – s. 267(c)
- Sexual Assault – s. 271
- Aggravated Assault – s. 268(1)
- Assaulting a Peace Officer – s. 270
Every case is different and demands a legal strategy tailored to its specific facts and circumstances.
Related Criminal Charges We Handle
Often, assault cases come with other charges. Our lawyers have extensive experience in defending related criminal offences, including:
- Uttering Threats – s. 264.1(1)
- Criminal Harassment – s. 264
- Forcible Confinement – s. 279(2)
- Intimidation – s. 423.1(1)
- Mischief (Property Damage) – s. 430
- Indecent or Harassing Communications – s. 372(2), 372(3)
Each of these is handled with thorough preparation and strategic attention to detail.
Domestic Assault Charges in Bolton
No two domestic assault allegations are identical. The details of the incident, the nature of the relationship, and the intentions of the parties all influence how a case proceeds. Most of these cases fall into one of two groups:
The parties wish to reconcile as soon as possible
In these scenarios, we work hard to have the matter resolved quickly. Some cases have been resolved in under a week.
One or both parties have no desire to reconcile
These cases may move at a slower pace unless special considerations—such as immigration or travel—require urgent attention. In such instances, we take all possible measures to expedite the process.
Domestic-related charges are treated with heightened seriousness in Ontario courts, often invoking section 718.2(a)(ii) of the Criminal Code to justify stricter penalties. However, with skilled legal counsel, you may still achieve positive outcomes, such as:
- Charges being withdrawn
- Peace bond arrangements that avoid a criminal record
- Discharges or entry into diversion programs
We know how sensitive and personal domestic matters can be. Our firm acts with discretion, urgency, and a deep commitment to achieving a resolution that minimizes disruption to your life.
Possible Case Outcomes
Depending on your circumstances, potential results include:
- Charges being withdrawn
- Peace bond agreements
- Absolute or conditional discharges
- Suspended sentence with probation terms
- Conditional Sentence Orders (such as house arrest)
- Custodial sentences in severe cases
We’ll guide you through your options and advocate for the most favourable resolution for your future.
