Z.L. was charged with Domestic Assault against his wife. ZL retained Christopher Assie of Neuberger & Partners LLP to defend himself against these charges. Mr. Assie suggested that ZL do some up-front counselling with a well-respected therapist. ZL agreed and completed the counselling. Mr. Assie analyzed the case and documented the discrepancies between the complainant’s allegations and the observations made by the police. He waited until the counselling was completed and had a favorable report by the therapist before engaging with the prosecutor. Armed with a therapist report and the ability to point out the inconsistencies in the evidence, Mr. Assie was able to convince the prosecutor that it was not in the public interest in prosecuting the matter. ZL agreed to enter into a peace bond without admitting any criminal or civil liability and his criminal charges were withdrawn.
