Honolulu First-Degree Assault Lawyers

Assault crimes in Hawaii are separated into three categories that range in severity. Depending on the severity of the assault, you could be charged with first, second, or third-degree assault, with first-degree assault being the most serious. First and second-degree assaults are felonies, and third-degree assaults are misdemeanors.

§707-710 Assault in the first degree is a Class B felony. You can be charged with first-degree assault if you intentionally or knowingly cause someone serious bodily injury. The government must prove that an individual committed the offense by intentionally or knowingly causing serious bodily injury to another person. The penalties for a first-degree assault could be up to ten years in prison and a $25,000 fine.

An assault conviction can result in a permeant criminal record. This can affect your ability to rent an apartment, find employment, get a professional license, receive educational aid, and more. The stigma of having a criminal conviction on your record will affect you for the rest of your life.

Absolute incredible people here. Probably the best investment I've made in my life. These people are true patriots and sincerely care about your rights. I wanted to give a shout out to Liberty and Emma for being so supportive and helpful when needed. Living in California it is extremely difficult to maintain 2A rights here without complications and never-ending laws changing, but they really went above and beyond for me when it mattered most and I am super grateful to them. Emma reassured me and kept me up to date throughout my situation and I was confident that I was in good hands. I will definitely remain a proud member for life and would recommend anyone that is a 2A advocate to sign up for AOR. God bless.

These people are the real deal. I had a defensive incident that required their expertise. They not only walked me through things every step of the way, they were very good at let me ramble and work things out in my head to get it all straight. I've been with them for a few years now and this was the first time I needed this type of help and they were there for me. They do exactly what they say they will do when they are needed.
