Common Questions
Assault charge questions Westgate clients often ask.
Can a nearby business camera help?
It may. Footage should be identified quickly because it can be overwritten.
Can I go to regular errands if the complainant may be nearby?
Review your conditions first. If contact is prohibited, accidental overlap can still create risk.
Can I pick up belongings from home?
Only if your conditions allow it or a proper arrangement is made.
