Local Planning Notes
Ridgehill assault defence should account for shared homes, family schedules, neighbourhood evidence, school routes, and no-contact terms.
Neighbourhood overlap can create accidental contact
Shared streets, stores, schools, parks, and family homes should be reviewed against the exact conditions.
Digital records should be preserved
Messages, missed calls, screenshots, doorbell footage, photos, and location records may help clarify the timeline.

Common Questions
Assault charge questions Ridgehill clients often ask.
Can a no-contact order affect parenting?
Yes. Parenting communication and exchanges should be reviewed before anything is arranged.
Can I go near a shared home to pick someone up?
Only if your conditions allow it. No-go wording may still apply even without direct contact.
Can old messages help explain context?
They can. Preserve them and get advice before deciding what is relevant.
