Michigan Aggravated Assault Lawyer Paul J. Tafelski Discusses Aggravated Assault Laws

Jan 18, 2022

January 18, 2022 - /PressAdvantage/ - Michigan - Aggravated assault lawyer Paul Tafelski discusses aggravated assault in his newly released article. The lawyer mentions that in Michigan, felonious assault is a kind of assault where “the victim suffers obvious severe or aggravated bodily injury involving apparent broken bones, loss of teeth, possible internal injury, severe laceration or loss of consciousness.”’

According to the Michigan aggravated assault lawyer, “Felonious assault is a very serious crime, and the penalties and consequences for a defendant convicted of felonious assault can be life-changing. It is important that you understand your legal rights if you have been accused of assault with a weapon or are charged with felonious assault.”

In the article, the lawyer explains that an assault may rise to a level of a felony if there was any display of a weapon in a threatening way. These dangerous weapons include guns, revolvers, pistols, knives, iron bars, clubs, brass knuckles, and others.

The aggravated assault lawyer also adds that an assault can be charged either as a simple misdemeanor or a serious felony if the assault included a weapon or if the victim was injured severely. There are also factors that are used to determine how an assault is charged.

Aside from those, the lawyer discusses the penalties for felonious assault in Michigan. The aggravated assault lawyer mentions that if someone is convicted of felonious assault or assault with a dangerous weapon, they could end up in prison for up to four years or pay a fine of $2,000.

Additionally, the assault attorney adds, “If the assault took place in a “weapon-free school zone,” then you face imprisonment for not more than four years, a fine of up to $6,000, and up to 150 hours of community service. If your case is ultimately reduced to a misdemeanor assault, the potential penalties are significantly less serious.”

Furthermore, attorney Paul Tafelski also says that each case of felonious assault is unique. This is why the lawyer emphasizes that having an experienced lawyer is crucial when someone is accused of a felonious assault. Having an experienced lawyer can help with a person’s defense and make a sound argument to help them receive a more favorable sentence if not completely set them free.
