What is Assault? 

Assault is defined as the threat of bodily harm combined with an apparent ability to cause bodily harm. Assault is considered both a crime and a tort. Therefore an assault charge could result in a criminal conviction or civil liability. 

Common Penalties for Assault

Assault charges are taken very seriously by the law. Most first- and second-degree charges come with mandatory prison sentences. We advise taking immediate action to begin building a case and to protect against potential incarceration. We have successfully defended many clients against misdemeanor and felony assault charges. We have the tools necessary to protect you during your trial. The penalties for assault affect many areas of your life and are not to be taken lightly.
