Sanchez Vaughn, Trial Lawyers

 

Battery & Violent Crimes

Battery, aggravated battery, domestic violence, and other violent-crime allegations.

STATE CRIMINAL DEFENSE

A criminal charge in Florida can put your freedom, your record, and your future in immediate jeopardy. The right response is not panic — it is preparation.

Battery & Violent Crimes Defense

Battery, aggravated battery, domestic-violence allegations, and other violent-crime charges often turn on credibility, context, and the right to self-defense. We investigate thoroughly and hold the State to its burden.

  • Simple and aggravated battery
  • Domestic-violence accusations
  • Self-defense and justifiable use of force
  • Witness credibility and evidence scrutiny

How We Approach Battery & Violent-Crime Cases

Violent-crime allegations often turn on context, credibility, injury evidence, and who used or threatened force first. We build the defense from the evidence rather than the accusation alone.

  • Preserve 911 calls, body-camera video, photographs, messages, and medical records.
  • Compare witness accounts against physical evidence and prior statements.
  • Evaluate self-defense, Stand Your Ground immunity, and evidentiary motions.
  • Prepare the case for a contested hearing or trial from the beginning.
