Giovanni O. Campbell, Philadelphia Defense Attorney

Testimonials

“I was facing the death penalty in a shooting homicide case. The evidence was strong and the prosecutor was an experienced veteran of the District Attorney’s elite Homicide Unit. Mr. Campbell was well prepared and litigated a motion that forced them to take the death penalty off the table. Then our trial began before a jury. A week later I was acquitted of all charges! I owe Mr. Campbell my life.”

“I was charged with attempted murder and facing 40 years. Mr. Campbell prepared thoroughly for my case and presented a self-defense claim. He presented my side of the story in expertly and persuasively. He was able to show the jury that there are two sides to every story. In my case he demonstrated that the person accusing me was a dangerous thug who tried to kill me, but missed me as he came closer. I backed away in fear while shooting back, and did not even know at the time that I had hit him. When the police interviewed him at the hospital, he made up a story to clear himself and got me arrested. After a week-long trial, the jury acquitted me. I will never forget the relief I felt.”

Violent Crimes: Assault,
Murder And Robbery

Assault
Preparation is one of the most important factors for a strong defense in an assault and battery case. I've handled hundreds of these cases over the years, and I've developed a detailed understanding of how they play out in the courts. This is the type of in-depth knowledge you need from the lawyer on your side when every decision you make can have a drastic impact on your future.

Charges of assault and battery can range from simple assault, which includes any offensive contact, to aggravated assault. Assault with a deadly weapon and sexual battery also fall under this category. Sometimes, the line between charges can be very fine. Do you know the difference between a felony 1 aggravated assault and attempted murder? More importantly, does the prosecutor? The differences can be minor, but the differences in repercussions tend to be major. I can work on your behalf to develop a negotiation and trial strategy aimed at getting you the best results possible.

My knowledge of the criminal justice system extends to the initial stages of building a criminal case. I understand the rights that you are entitled to pertaining to warrants and arrests. I will use the facts of the case on your behalf to provide positive results, possibly ending your assault and battery case before it even begins.
