Many people who call us after they have been charged with assault are puzzled. "I didn't hit anyone," they tell us. "How can I be in so much trouble?" If something you said (or allegedly said) caused another person immediate fear, you could be charged with assault.

If the alleged victim claimed you did make physical contact with them, you may be charged with battery. Make sure you have an assault defense lawyer who will listen to your version of events and protect your rights.
