Domestic Assault Charges in Simcoe
Every domestic assault allegation is different. Each situation involves unique allegations and relationship dynamics. However, these cases generally fall into two main scenarios:
The parties wish to reconcile as soon as possible
When the parties wish to reconcile, we make tremendous efforts to get the case completed as soon as possible. We have completed some cases in 7 days or less.
One or both parties have no desire to reconcile
These cases may not have the same urgency, however, if there are special reasons to (for example immigration or travel) all steps to expedite the process will be taken.
Domestic-related offences are treated with increased seriousness in Ontario. Courts often consider section 718.2(a)(ii) of the Criminal Code, which emphasises harsher sentencing for domestic violence.
Possible Legal Outcomes Include:
- Charges withdrawn
- Peace bond agreements (no criminal conviction)
- Diversion or discharge
- Conditional sentencing
- Probation orders
- Custodial sentences for serious matters
Our team understands the emotional toll these cases can take and will handle your matter confidentially and effectively.

- Charge withdrawal
