When selecting which attorney to hire, please consider:

  • Can you call anytime and talk to a live person?

  • Will your attorney be attentive and explain what’s going on?

At The McShane Firm, we answer yes to all of these questions. We strive to provide you with a great customer service experience during this tough time.

Defenses to assault cases

One of the best defenses to assault cases is self-defense. Lots of attorneys cannot properly tell you the law of self-defense in PA. They just think of it like other folks. You can hit, when you are hit. You can shoot, when you are shot at. While that’s part of it, there is a lot more to it. The doctrine of anticipatory self-defense applies. Plus, there is the castle doctrine that not only covers your residence, but also the area near to it. And ask an attorney about Stand Your Ground law and you’ll likely get the wrong answer. So read all of this to make sure you know
