Threatening and intimidating can range from a class 1 misdemeanor to a class 3 felony. A conviction could result in mandatory prison, fines and probation. Because of the harsh penalties, these cases must be handled by an experienced threatening and intimidating lawyer, such as those at Matthew Lopez Law, PLLC, who understand the severity of the charges and will advocate for your best interest.
A threatening and intimidating charge is subjective. This means the police or prosecutors may not even consult with an accused to determine whether or not what they said or did was really threatening or whether they had the intent to threaten or intimidate. Rather, they will solely base their decision to prosecute on whether the alleged victim felt threatened or intimidated. Matthew Lopez is an experienced defense attorney who knows how to fight cases and work with prosecutors in order to provide clients with the highest level of legal representation. We refuse to let our clients get convicted for threatening and intimidating if there was a simple misunderstanding, the alleged victim is subjectively sensitive, or if they are making up a story against our clients due to ulterior motives.
