At Daley, Byers, we provide the legal insight and courtroom experience necessary to defend your rights effectively.
Types of Assault Charges We Defend
We defend clients charged under the Criminal Code of Canada, including:
- Simple Assault – s. 266

- Assault Causing Bodily Harm – s. 267(b)
- Assault Choking – s. 267(c)

Each case requires a strategic defence tailored to its facts and context.

Domestic Assault Charges in Walkerton
No two domestic assault cases are the same. Each matter involves its own unique relationship dynamics and allegations. These cases generally fall into one of two scenarios:
The parties wish to reconcile as soon as possible
When both parties express a desire to reunite, we act swiftly to move the matter forward. In some cases, we’ve achieved resolutions in under one week.
One or both parties have no desire to reconcile
If reconciliation isn’t the goal, we still take proactive steps—especially in urgent situations involving immigration, employment, or travel-related issues.
Domestic assault charges often involve more serious sentencing under section 718.2(a)(ii) of the Criminal Code. This makes it essential to have experienced legal representation.
Legal Resolutions May Include:
- Charges being dropped
- Peace bonds (no conviction recorded)
- Discharges or participation in diversion programs
We understand the emotional and legal weight of these situations. Our team works with care and confidentiality to find the best solution for your future.
Possible Outcomes for Assault Charges
Your legal options may include:
- Full withdrawal of charges
- Peace bond agreements
- Conditional or absolute discharges
- Probation with suspended sentences
- House arrest (Conditional Sentence Orders)
- Incarceration in serious instances
We will walk you through each of these options and fight for the one that best protects your freedom and future.
What to Expect from Your Free Consultation
Your no-cost consultation will include:
- A review of your charges and surrounding facts
- Discussion of strategic defence options
- An overview of possible legal outcomes
- A transparent and fair legal fee estimate
- Time for your questions—no pressure involved
