Defense Against Colorado Assault Charges
Experienced Denver Criminal Defense Attorney
Fights within a family, fights in a parking lot, slapping someone in a bar, intentionally hitting a person with your car — these are all examples of assault and
battery. Assault also includes an element of threat, which can be an outright threat or an implied threat.
The seriousness of the charges you face — whether it will be a misdemeanor or felony assault — will depend on the nature and extent of injuries, and whether a weapon was used. Even a foot can be considered a deadly weapon so you could potentially be facing a felony charge for assault with a deadly weapon, which carries a mandatory prison sentence if you are convicted.
I am attorney Beth Krulewitch. For more than 20 years I have defended clients in Colorado state and federal criminal courts. I began my career in the Public Defender's office, working hard to ensure my clients received the strongest possible defense in assault and domestic violence cases. I have handled thousands of criminal trials.
My extensive courtroom experience enables me to vigorously defend clients facing criminal charges. From my offices in Denver and Aspen, I represent clients across Colorado. To learn more about how I can help you, contact me to arrange a free consultation.

Do Not Plead Guilty Until You've Spoken to Me
Do not unnecessarily jeopardize your future by pleading guilty to a criminal charge before you've spoken to an attorney. As your defense lawyer, I can explain all the possible defense options that may be available to you. With early intervention I may be able to negotiate for a reduced charge or get charges dropped (for example, from assault and battery to simple assault).
When you seek the strategic advantage in court, contact my Denver or Aspen law office to learn more about what I can do to help you. I offer a free initial consultation and flexible appointments.
