How to Defend Against Substantial Battery Charges

Understanding your side of the story is the first step in building a strong defense. Your attorney should investigate all aspects of your case to determine the best strategy. Some common defenses against substantial battery include:

• Self-defense – Proving you were protecting your safety or the safety of others can be a strong argument in court.
• Defense of property – Showing that your property was being threatened and you responded with a minimal amount of force is another strategy.
• Consent – Proving you had consent would cause the charges to be null and void.
• Wrongful accusations – Proving you did not commit the battery could result in charges being dropped.
