Assault and battery are sometimes thought as the same offense, but they are separate offenses. Regardless of the differences between the two, they both hold substantial penalties and bring forth an undesirable social stigma that can haunt the person charged of the crime for a long time. But what is the difference between assault and battery?
Domestic violence charges are extremely common within the Las Vegas area and can occur between family members, those in a romantic relationship, or roommates. In the State of Nevada, there are harsh penalties that follow a domestic violence charge. This crime is a violent or aggressive behavior within the home, typically involving the violent abuse of a spouse or partner.

The Defenders helped assist my uncle with his DUI case. Randy was very informative and provided us with great information! He made us feel really confident and answered all our questions. I highly recommend this firm! The staff is really professional and you can tell they genuinely care about their clients.

Still no response from RYAN HEMLOCK or YADIRA. Can't even get one of these criminals to call back they leave it to there public relations person to handle. So If you're looking for personal touch it doesn't exist at the Defenders. The only thing they defend is how much they charge to eventually not show up and not let you know when you need to show up!
Update: called In for umpteenth time finally got a live person and Johnny is a big of a pOS as Ryan and his criminal staff thanks for the warrant..

I highly recommend this law firm for any criminal defence needs. They work extremely hard to get you the best deal and make the process as seamless as possible. They answered all of my questions and kept me and my family assured that they did everything possible. They made me feel like their top priority and provided the best defence possible for my case.

I highly recommend The Defenders Criminal Defense Lawyers. They worked very hard on my case and stuck it out all the way through without any hidden fees. They were very upfront and honest with me. Even when I was going through one of the most challenging times of my life, they didn't sugar coat it. Hopefully, I never need criminal defence again, but he will be my first phone call if I do.

Further update, it appears they represented me under the wrong citation number. So my case wasn't being resprented for somebody else's case was. 8 months, my case was never being represented for like they told me I had been. A attorney was never applied to my case... I don't even know how irresponsible a firm can get. Now I I need a lawyer to fix the problem created by these "lawyers". No wonder no adjustments were made to my case.

David was unquestionably thoughtful as he drove to LA with his wife to help me with a legal problem I was having in California. I was being harassed. I am a single mom with diabetes raising a baby and this guy wouldn't leave me alone. Both his parents were attorneys. He thought he could do whatever he wanted. I was going to court alone. I called my… friends in Las Vegas. They told David. David Kohlmeier drove to Los Angeles, called me as he drove west to ask me the details of the case, and then found me an affordable attorney in LA. I can't believe he did all that in under two days. The

I needed assistance with a misdemeanor charge I received August 2019. I heard of the Defenders due to their generous giveaway bags for Cinco De Mayo as a promotion. I decided to call & met with David Kohlmeier whom I am friends on Facebook with. The office is very professional with their initial greeting from the staff, the decor of the office , and the conference room. I discussed my case with David & explained I need to hire an attorney to represent me in 2020. David was very detailed, articulate, and gave me the most reasonable quote I've received amongst all Las Vegas attorneys

Greatly appreciate everything The Defenders have helped me with. David and the few other people I spoke with were prompt, professional and resolved my ticket with ease. They got it reduced to a parking ticket when it would have otherwise hurt my record. I'm extremely happy with the results. Wouldn't go anywhere else!

I had an incident that I needed some legal guidance on. I met with David Kohlmeier. While he himself is not an attorney, he is experienced LE and a Liason to the attorneys. He took ample time to review the case and gave insight and honest feedback. He didn't try to sell me on a package, or how the attorneys would handle the case. In fact, in my unique situation, he suggested I could handle it without representation. That's like a car salesman downselling you on a model! I actually had planned on that, but it was refreshing to hear it from someone in the business of helping people. I truly
