No two domestic assault cases are the same. Every situation has its own dynamics, history, and relationship background. That said, most fall into one of the following categories:
There is no intent to reconcile
In matters where reconciliation is not desired, we still move efficiently—especially if special circumstances apply, such as immigration matters or travel constraints. In every instance, your best interest guides our approach.
Domestic assault allegations are taken very seriously in Ontario, often resulting in harsher legal consequences under section 718.2(a)(ii) of the Criminal Code. However, with a strategic legal approach, outcomes may include:
- Charges being dropped
- Peace bond arrangements without a criminal record
- Access to discharge or diversion programs
We understand the personal and legal sensitivity surrounding domestic assault charges. Our team handles these cases with discretion, urgency, and compassion, aiming for outcomes that restore peace and protect your reputation.
Possible Outcomes in Assault Cases
Depending on your specific situation, possible legal resolutions include:
- Charges being withdrawn
- Peace bond arrangements
- Absolute or conditional discharges
- Suspended sentence and probation
- Conditional sentence (such as house arrest)
- Incarceration in serious or repeat offence cases
We will walk you through each potential option and advocate for the one that best supports your long-term well-being.
