Illinois Battery and Assault Not Guilty Finding

A domestic battery conviction in Illinois should be avoided at all costs. Always engage an experienced criminal defense attorney who has handled many Illinois domestic battery cases. Aggressive criminal defense attorneys in Illinois like Steven R. Hunter fight tirelessly to win Illinois battery cases and get charges dismissed or earn a Not Guilty verdict.

In this particular situation, the client was accused of harassing two women while waiting for his meal in a restaurant. The client was asked to leave by an employee and was escorted out, but he attempted to regain entry and asked to speak with a manager. The employee refused to allow him back inside, and the client spat on the ground. 

After being accused of battery, he hired the Law Office of Steven R. Hunter to make his case. Mr. Hunter made compelling arguments to the court, demonstrating that there were no cameras or witnesses in the restaurant that could prove any sexual harassment. Mr. Hunter also pointed to evidence showing that the client never struck the restaurant employee, only spitting onto the ground.

 

After hearing this evidence provided by attorney Steven R. Hunter, the Court found our client Not Guilty of battery.
