Norwood & Norwood is one of the best Violent Crimes defense law firms in Benton County, AR. For over a quarter of a century, we’ve defended over 1,000 Violent Crime cases. If you are charged with a Violent Crime, we can help you.
The lawyers in our firm include former deputy prosecutors, people who have worked on the other side, and understand the strategies and tactics the prosecutor will use to try and convict you. Even though you are only paying one legal fee if you hire our firm, you are receiving the benefit of having a team of lawyers with over 100 years of combined legal experience.
Doug Norwood is our team leader and has input on all cases that need his knowledge and experience. There are many cases where several of our attorneys review a case and give input. The old saying “two heads are better than one” is very appropriate in the area of Violent Crimes. Our team puts our heads together to come up with ideas that will help our clients. The attorneys on our criminal defense legal team have a lot of experience in Violent Crime cases and they all aggressively look for ways to win cases and fight to get great outcomes for our clients. We fight hard for our clients and would love to help you!
You should definitely plead NOT GUILTY to your Violent Crime charge! The first court hearing is called an arraignment. If you hire our law firm, we will enter a “Not Guilty” plea for you at your arraignment and YOU WILL PROBABLY NOT HAVE TO GO TO COURT, unless it is a felony or in Springdale District Court. The purpose of an arraignment is to plead “Guilty” or “Not Guilty” to the Judge. If you were to plead “guilty,” the Judge would set your sentence on each of your charges to whatever he or she wants within the minimum and maximum sentence allowed by law. On your Violent Crime charge, the Judge can put you in jail or, if it is a felony, in prison!
Some people worry that if they plead “Not Guilty,” when they feel they are really guilty, that it could hurt them later. Please do not worry. The criminal justice system is designed for you to plead “Not Guilty.” This is the case because in America you are considered innocent until the prosecutor can prove you guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. First, this allows Norwood & Norwood, if you hire us as your attorneys, to examine all of the evidence to see if the prosecutor has enough evidence to prove you guilty AND to see if the police got that evidence lawfully without making errors. In other words, we look for a way to WIN! You would be shocked at how many cases we win, even when our client is technically guilty, because the police do not do their job properly. Next, the system is designed for us to negotiate with the prosecutor to get the best possible plea bargain (sentence) for you. We have negotiated many thousands of dismissals for our clients’ charges. The prosecutor negotiates so that the state will be spared the time and expense of a trial. Our firm has defended well-over 1,000 Violent Crime cases. The Norwood & Norwood criminal defense legal team uses that experience, and problems we find with the prosecutor’s evidence, to work toward really great outcomes for our clients. Those may include winning your case, getting dismissal of charges, keeping you out of jail, keeping charges off of your record, keeping fines low, etc.
The consequences of conviction can be costly! You potentially face jail time, fines, court costs, and even the loss of your job. Norwood & Norwood has either won or negotiated dismissals for many thousands of charges for our clients and most of our clients NEVER GO TO JAIL. Let us see if we can do that for you! Your first visit with us to discuss your case is absolutely FREE, and you are under no obligation to hire us. If you decide to hire us, we offer reasonable rates, payment plans, and accept VISA, MASTERCARD and DISCOVER. We have proven many thousands of times that, just because you have been charged with a crime, doesn’t mean you will be convicted of that crime. If you have the opportunity to hire one of the best criminal defense law firms in Northwest Arkansas at a reasonable rate you can afford, why wouldn’t you? We fight hard for our clients and we would love to help you!
Trying to handle a Violent Crime charge without an attorney, or with an inexperienced attorney, can have devastating results. If a friend or family member has told you that your Violent Crime charge is “no big deal,” they do not fully understand the potential consequences of a Violent Crime charge. A Violent Crime charge can be either a misdemeanor or felony. Either way, if you plead guilty to a judge, he or she can put you in jail or, if it is a felony, in prison. Every Assault or Battery conviction exposes you to jail, and if it is a felony, to prison, as well as to fines and court costs. We have defended well-over 1,000 Violent Crime cases. Our criminal defense legal team uses that experience, and problems we find with the prosecutor’s evidence, to work toward really great outcomes for our clients. Those may include winning your case, getting dismissal of charges, keeping you out of jail, keeping charges off of your record, keeping fines low, etc.

ALL ATTORNEYS ARE NOT EQUAL. If you go see another attorney, we strongly suggest that you ask any other attorney the questions below. No two attorneys are alike and we believe that you should know the answers to these questions before you make a decision on whom to hire. For example, one reason why this could be important, is there are many attorneys that may say they handle Violent Crime charges. However, OTHER ATTORNEYS MAY HAVE NEVER TAKEN ANY VIOLENT CRIME CASE TO TRIAL, or only handled a few Violent Crime charges. Our firm has defended well-over 1,000 Violent Crime charges. Norwood & Norwood’s Violent Crime charge experience, and the fact that our defense team has taken hundreds if not thousands of cases to trial, helps us to negotiate really great outcomes for our clients. The prosecutors know we will make the state spend their time and money on a trial if we do not get a negotiated outcome that is favorable for our client. It is important to know that the attorney you hire has the skill, knowledge and experience to put up the best fight to protect you from the consequences of your charges. As you can see, our answer to every question is YES.
