Vigorous Defence Against Assault with a Weapon Charges

Accord Attorneys is your trusted legal partner when confronting charges related to assault with a weapon. The Crown prosecutor must establish that you either used a "weapon" or caused "bodily harm" to bring this charge. An assault, in legal terms, involves intentional force without consent, and even minor injuries may qualify as "bodily harm."
For an assault with a weapon charge, there are three key components:● Application of force, whether direct or indirect● Intentionality behind the use of force● Lack of consent for the application of force
It's crucial to note that consent cannot be used as a defence for an assault causing bodily harm. However, exceptions exist, such as in sporting events. Accord Attorneys can guide you through the specifics of your situation, providing clarity on available defences.

While each case is unique, penalties for assault with a weapon or causing bodily harm generally exceed those for basic assault. They may include:● Jail time (up to 10 years)● Probation (up to three years)● Mandatory DNA sample submission to the national DNA Databank● Lifetime prohibition on owning weapons● Monetary fines
