Y.Y. was charged with Domestic Assault, Toronto. Y.Y. was having an argument with his wife. The allegations are that while doing the dishes, Y.Y. came behind the wife and struck her with his hands. The wife called 911 and gave a statement to the police. Y.Y. retained Mariya Protsenko of Neuberger and Partners LLP. Mariya reviewed the disclosure and then conducted two pre-trials with the Crown. Mariya provided extensive background information about the couple and the state of their marriage. In fact, Y.Y. was quite depressed. Mariya negotiated that the client would take private counselling to address the issues in the marriage and anger issues. Upon completion of counseling, the client entered into a common law peace bond and the charge of Assault was withdrawn.
