Types of Violent Crime Cases

Assault, Domestic Assault, Robbery, and More

We handle misdemeanor and felony assault, domestic assault, robbery, weapons offenses related to violent incidents, and serious threats cases; each charge requires careful analysis of intent, evidence, and defenses.

Nebraska Law & Penalties

Degrees, Enhancements, and Collateral Consequences

Nebraska classifies assault by degree and injuries, with enhancements for weapons use; convictions can mean jail or prison time, fines, and long-term consequences for employment and firearm rights-early strategy is essential.

Defense Strategies

Self-Defense, Identification, and Evidence Challenges

We evaluate self-defense claims, challenge eyewitness reliability, obtain video when available, and file motions to exclude improper statements or evidence; when negotiation is wise, we pursue charge reductions or probation, and we prepare for trial if needed.

Domestic Violence Considerations

Orders, Family Impact, and Next Steps

Domestic cases often involve protection orders and can affect housing, employment, and family court matters; our firm coordinates strategy with related issues so you understand the full picture before making decisions.
