Assault Case Results in Williamson, TX

Charge

Aggravated Assault

Location

Williamson County, DC 26

Allegations

The case stemmed from an incident at a residence where a firearm accidentally discharged, injuring our client's hand. A roommate reported that the gun had been pointed at them, leading to an aggravated assault charge, which our client denied. With no prior record and hospital treatment for the hand wound after the accidental discharge, we focused negotiations on lack of intent and safety concerns. We guided the client through addressing the warrant and court process while communicating with the complainant and the state. After sustained negotiations, the prosecution agreed to resolve the case with deferred probation, keeping a conviction off the client's record.

Charge

Indecent Assault

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #2

Allegations

Police filed indecent assault charges after an incident at a resort where alcohol and a dispute preceded allegations of unwanted contact. We dug into the reports and pressed for the surveillance video referenced by security, which the state never produced. For months the prosecution had difficulty securing the complainant, and we used that gap to push for better terms. As trial neared, they lined up the complainant and two bystanders, raising the risk at verdict given our client’s record. We negotiated a probation resolution that avoided jail and let the client move forward.

Indecent Assault

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #2

Allegations

The client was accused of indecent assault after a brief encounter in a workplace restroom. The account was disputed, and there had been a pattern of mutual flirting and joking beforehand. We gathered digital communications that showed a different context, obtained surveillance video capturing the moments before and after the encounter, and charted significant inconsistencies between the complainant’s statements. After presenting these credibility problems and signaling we were ready to litigate, the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #3

Allegations

After a domestic argument, a relative called 911 after hearing commotion, but no one outside the couple saw what happened. Officers arrested our client based on the complainant's statement. We reviewed the reports and evidence, noting she was intoxicated during the interview, her account shifted, and there were no independent witnesses. The injury documentation was minimal and inconsistent with the allegations. The complainant later made clear she did not want to pursue the case. We presented these issues to the prosecutor, who dismissed the charge.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence

Williamson County, County Court at Law #5

Allegations

Police responded to a 911 call after a domestic argument at a residence. Bodycam video captured the complainant saying she was pushed and that her phone was grabbed, while scene photos showed no visible injuries. We obtained the footage and reports, highlighted inconsistencies between the initial account and later statements, and pressed weaknesses in the state’s proof. With trial risk and the prosecutor’s position in mind, we negotiated deferred adjudication probation, keeping a conviction off the client’s record.

Charge

Assault Causing Bodily Injury

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #3

Allegations

During a night out, an argument in a vehicle escalated and our client was arrested for assault. The police report relied on a single account, and officers did not secure statements from other participants or the caller. We obtained the file, highlighted those evidentiary gaps, and packaged mitigation the client had already completed, including anger management and character letters. The complainant signed an affidavit of non-prosecution, which we delivered to the prosecutor. With limited proof and strong mitigation, we negotiated a reduction to a lesser charge with deferred probation, keeping a conviction off the record.
