How to Win an Assault Case in Los Angeles

A strong assault defense begins with uncovering the truth. Attorney Slaten and his investigative team move quickly to locate and interview witnesses — often revealing statements that contradict the alleged “victim’s” story. These findings can form the foundation of a solid defense, whether it’s self-defense or proof that you were not the aggressor.

Using this evidence, our goal is to petition for charges to be dismissed or reduced. If the case proceeds to trial, this same evidence helps us push for a not-guilty verdict or a fair plea arrangement. We negotiate directly with prosecutors and argue effectively before judges to protect your rights.

A conviction can change your life — but it doesn’t have to happen. If you’ve been charged with assault, contact us today to schedule a free consultation and start building your defense immediately.
