I apologize for the delay in responding to this question. Our firm recently moved into CityScape in Phoenix and I was unable to access my LawGuru account for a period of time during that transition.

In response to your question, no, Arizona does not have a �3 strike law� however there are some certain offenses (�serious crime� offenses) where a third conviction would require a sentence to life imprisonment. Whether or not this would apply in the situation you are asking about will depend on what kind of assault convictions this person already has.

The Law Office of David Michael Cantor is well versed in defending assault charges of all levels. Please refer to our website at Phoenix Criminal Lawyer for further information about the firm.
