Fresno Assault & Battery Attorney

How Is Assault & Battery Charged?
In many cases, assault and battery are charged as separate misdemeanors. However, if serious bodily harm was done or if there are special circumstances involved, you could be facing felony charges. For example, if you are accused of the use of a deadly weapon or have allegedly inflicted life-threatening injuries.
