Assault Crime Attorneys Florence KY
Building A Defense Against Assault Charges
Regardless of the reason for the incident, District Court takes assault charges very seriously and you should too. Assault charges can be filed against you even if there is no physical contact. If a person has a reasonable fear of imminent harm, that is enough for prosecutors to pursue criminal charges. A person charged with criminal assault may face anything from substantial fines to a lengthy jail sentence. With any type of assault charge, a conviction will lead to a criminal record, which can have a negative impact on many areas of a person’s life.
