Assault and Battery Charges

Assault and battery are often confused by the general public. Still, these are distinct legal terms that carry different sentencing and legal possibilities. Battery and assault charges may be given in tandem, however.

Assault does not need to include actions that physically harm someone. Actions that can amount to an assault charge include making threats that convey immediate harm or a real perception of danger. Verbal threats, throwing objects, threatening hand gestures, and more can result in accusations of assault.

Battery is typically the completion of these actions, resulting in physical violence and harm done to a person.
