Charges such as Common Assault, Assault Occasioning Actual Bodily Harm, Grievous Bodily Harm, Affray and Wounding carry serious penalties, including jail.
We look closely at identity, intent, the injuries, any self-defence raised, and whether Police have fairly shown the full context through CCTV, messages and witnesses.
How we run the case
– Evidence gathered early. We secure CCTV, phone data and independent witnesses before it goes missing.
– Defence presented clearly. If self-defence or another defence is raised, we line up the facts and the law so the Court can rule on each point.
– In-Court work. We prepare for firm but fair cross-examination of witnesses and use simple submissions that help the Court make clear findings.
– If a plea is strategic. We give honest advice and prepare material that addresses risk, personal circumstances and steps you have taken to change.
Why Spice Law
Fearless and practical. We prepare as if the matter will be fought, and we negotiate from a strong position. You will understand your options in plain language, with a Court-ready brief well before the first mention.
