A Connecticut attorney is due in court Thursday after being charged with assaulting a fellow lawyer.

A viewer sent News 12 video taken outside Derby Superior Court.

It appears to show attorney Rob Serofinowitz in a heated argument with a man later identified as another lawyer.

The argument ends with Serofinowitz delivering a slap across the face of the other man. He was arrested a short time later.

Serofinowitz sent a statement to News 12 accusing the victim of "trying to destroy his career and reputation."
