Our client faced charges of reckless grievous bodily harm, along with two counts of actual bodily harm and two counts of possession of knuckle dusters.
The client was accused of using knuckle dusters to knock out two individuals while also being assaulted by a third person. After intensive negotiations, the team at JBP Law successfully achieved a reduction in charges, resulting in the case being retained in the Local Court for sentencing. This in itself marked a significant victory.
The situation wasn't a straightforward instance of assault without cause.
The case carried complexities due to a range of legal factors, including potential self-defense considerations and forensic assessment of injuries to determine whether they constituted grievous bodily harm. However, following meticulous preparation, Jason Benjamin Pham from our office managed to prevent the client from being incarcerated.
The client was a promising young individual with strong prospects for rehabilitation. He eagerly anticipated embarking on a fresh start in life, armed with a second chance. This young man was granted the opportunity to remain within the community and contribute to society, without losing a single day behind bars.
