Mr. Royle is by far the best DUI lawyer in AZ. He is a very knowledgeable attorney that truly assisted me in my darkest hour and provided me with an outcome that was in the best interest for me and my family. Mr Royle was in constant contact with me during my case. He’s very professional, and was able to get a lesser charge when I thought I was ruined. I highly recommend him as a lawyer.

    Frequently asked questions

    How much does a criminal lawyer cost phoenix?

    The cost of a Phoenix criminal defense lawyer depends on the severity or complexity of the case and the experience and knowledge of the lawyer. Like most things, the more sought after it is, the more expensive it costs. That said, most criminal defense lawyers, including those at Feldman & Royle work on a flat fee which allows clients to accurately predict the cost of services.

    What crimes do you have to register as a sex offender in Arizona?

    Arizona has very strict laws regarding sexual assault offenses, and registration in Arizona often lasts an entire lifetime.

    Sexual assault crimes that would result in a mandatory registration for a sex offender includes:

    • Sexual abuse of a minor
    • Kidnapping a minor that is not your child
    • Sexual assault
    • Sexual conduct with a minor (statutory rape), especially repeated and continual conduct
    • Sex trafficking and/or prostitution of a minor
    • Sexual exploitation and/or sexually luring a minor

    However, registering as a sex offender in Arizona is ranked on three different tiers.

    • Tier 3: This type of registration involves heinous and violent sexual assault crimes because the perpetrators represent a more severe risk. When registering as a level 3 sex offender, you can expect to have your name, photo and record sent to schools and neighborhoods near your residence, as well as potential employers. Additionally, a press release will be sent to the media detailing your record and information.
    • Tier 2: Sex offenders that are deemed to be a “level 2” offender may need to notify their registration to close neighborhoods and schools.
    • Tier 1: Registration information is only shared with roommates and other law enforcement agencies.

    For all of these tiers, sex offenders only have ten days to register. Perpetrators of sexually violent crimes will not be allowed to live within 1000ft of public schools or daycare centers.

    What’s the difference between assault and aggravated assault?

    There are key differences between a simple assault charge and an aggravated assault charge, which is typically defined based on the severity of the case. A simple assault charge, which frequently results in a misdemeanor charge, can be punishable up to 12 months in prison along with a maximum fine of $2,500. Simple assault charges are typically the result of the following factors:

    • Causing a physical injury to somebody
    • Intending to inflict a physical injury on somebody, or touching them with the intent of harm
    • Making someone else fear a possible infliction of harm

    Aggravated assault charges stem from much more severe and malicious intent and action. An aggravated assault charge is a class 3 felony and can result in a much lengthier prison sentence and heavier fines. Aggravated assault charges may result from the following factors:

    • Causing severe physical harm
    • Physical harm was inflicted after trespassing on somebody’s private property
    • The victim is a public law enforcement agent, firefighter, teacher, public official, etc.
    • Assault was carried out with a deadly weapon
    • Victim’s injury results in disfigurement or a fracture, can be temporary or permanent

    Essentially, the results of an aggravated assault charge are more serious than that of a simple assault charge. Malicious intent and severe injury is typical of aggravated assault cases.
