Charge
Assault
Location
Travis, TX
Allegations
Police responded to a domestic dispute where the complainant alleged our client slapped them, and officers made an arrest based largely on that statement. We obtained and reviewed the bodycam footage and reports, mapped the timeline, and highlighted the lack of corroboration, including no clear injuries, no independent witnesses, and inconsistencies that undercut reliability. We compiled these issues and pressed the prosecution, signaling readiness to litigate. The state dismissed the assault charge.

Charge
Assault - Family Violence (Continuous)
Location
Travis, TX
Allegations
After a domestic dispute, the client was accused of multiple assaults over several days, including claims of strangulation and a later injury to the complainant’s chin. We pulled the reports, text threads between the parties, and injury photos, then built a clear timeline. The records showed delayed reporting and key inconsistencies, and there was little corroboration for the strangulation allegations beyond statements. We presented these weaknesses to the prosecutor and prepared to litigate. The case was resolved with deferred probation, avoiding a conviction and jail.

Police filed a continuous family violence case after a domestic dispute at a residence, citing multiple alleged incidents over time. From the start, our client maintained they acted defensively and that the other party initiated the confrontation. We compared the initial report to later statements and found conflicts, and noted that law enforcement had first detained the complainant before the narrative shifted. We compiled those credibility problems and pressed the prosecutor. The state dismissed the case.

Our client was arrested after a domestic dispute and accused of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. The case was initially filed at a higher degree, but the state later recognized the injuries alleged did not meet that level.
