      "Armando Will Do the Absolute Best He Can to Help"

    Armando Will Do the Absolute Best He Can to Help
    Armando is more than just a good lawyer, and his team is not just a good team, they're excellent. Armando doesn't promise you any results, but what he does promise you is that he will do the absolute best he possibly can to help you. I was worried sick, calling more than I should've, always asking for updates on my case, and Natasha would calm me down and tell me, time and time again, that Armando was working on my case. If it wasn't Natasha, then it was Armando's assistant telling me that everything would be okay. Armando, in the end, turned two scary felonies (Aggravated Battery & Aggravated Assault) facing time in prison, to just a program which I complete in order to get the case dismissed entirely. My word of advice is if you need a lawyer, give Armando's firm a call, you will not be disappointed. Another word of advice... don't need him. (Meaning stay out of trouble if you can help it!) Thank you for the help, Armando.

    Frequently Asked Questions
    • What is considered assault?
      Assault generally involves intentionally causing harm to another person or making them fear immediate harm. This can include actions like hitting, striking, or an attempt to physically harm someone. Legal definitions may vary by jurisdiction, covering both physical and threatened harm.
    • What are the penalties for assault?
      Penalties for assault can vary depending on the severity of the offense and jurisdiction. They can range from fines and community service to probation or imprisonment. Factors such as the use of a weapon, injuries caused, and prior convictions can influence sentencing.
    • Is self-defense a valid defense for assault?
      Yes, self-defense can be a valid legal defense against an assault charge. If you reasonably believed it was necessary to use force to protect yourself from harm, this may absolve you of liability. The specifics of self-defense laws can vary by jurisdiction.
    • Can assault charges be dropped?
      Assault charges can sometimes be dropped if there's insufficient evidence, or if the alleged victim recants their statement. However, the decision to drop charges ultimately lies with the prosecutor. An attorney can work with the prosecution to negotiate a dismissal under appropriate circumstances.
