Re: Aggerated Assault

You have made a false police report which is an offense that is more manageable if you quickly, with the

assistance of an attorney, tell the police that you loss your mind a lied.

I would also suggest that you seek some form of mental health therapy to demonstrate that you are acting to curtail your recent misconduct.

You need to call me Wednesday.

Re: Aggerated Assault

You should not do anything until you get an attorney. This case can be handled so that you both escape without any charges, but it has to be done very, very carefully. I've had clients in this same situation and the results were great.

I practice in Atlantic County, so call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss your case. I can meet you tomorrow (tuesday) in my toms river office.
