Assault

• There are three separate degrees of assault according to Colorado law. First and Second Degree Assault are charged as felonies, and Third Degree Assault is a misdemeanor.

• There are many potential defenses for assault including self defense, and defense of others. However, assault cases vary according to the individual fact patterns in each case. If you have been charged with assault, contact the attorneys at The Reisch Law Firm as soon as possible to discuss the specific facts of your case and determine the appropriate defense strategy.

Sex Crimes

• The consequences of merely being charged with any crime involving unlawful sexual activity are serious. In recent years, Colorado and many other states have profoundly altered the criminal laws, penalties, and timeline for filing of these cases. Police and investigative agencies have simultaneously increased the frequency, scope and proactive methods utilized to bring charges. Certain convictions in this area of law can result in a lifetime in prison under Colorado's "indeterminate to life" sentencing structure. Even a misdemeanor conviction can require registration with local police as a "sex offender" or restrictions from public areas where children may be present. Other consequences can be forced removal from family, no-contact with spouse or children, and employment restrictions. Even crimes not involving sexual conduct such as internet related charges and charges involving graphic images can result in career ending and drastic results.
