hi my name is chris.

i am a door man from weston super mare, i have a clean record have never been in trouble withe law previously.

in the summer i got arrested for striking a lad once to the face, i had to eject him from the bar i was working.

i felt in fear of my safety as i had tried to calm him down and stop him going pst me to have a go at a female. i am properly scared of what will happen in court i dont want to go to prison!!!

can somebody please tell me what is the worst that could happen and what is the most likely punishment i will recieve?

the injuries were a double fracture of the jaw ie, the left and the right side.

this resulted in him having a plate fitted to both sides

 

thank you chris bennett

hi just wanted to let you know my son got 180hrs community service and a £1500 fine for compensation which is alot but better than having to go to prison.. must also say that he had a barrister from nottingham-christopher gisson and he was fantastic, im just pleased it is over....

Have you looked here: GBH Section 20 maximum is 5 years imprisonment.

There are a lot of examples and it looks like the range is 1-3 years depending on the injuries caused, any similar previous convictions, age of your son and the victim and of course the early plea. Any other mitigation put forward by your barrister/solicitor will also help.

Good luck!
