Volusia County Assault & Battery Lawyers
Charged with Assault and Battery in Daytona Beach or Volusia County?
An arrest for assault or battery is a very serious matter. Anyone facing assault & battery charges stands to face a conviction that could seriously affect their reputation, personal life, and future. If you are found guilty of assault and battery, you could be sentenced to imprisonment, large fines, restitution to the victim, probation or parole, community service, and more. Do not let your charges turn into a conviction because you failed to retain the legal counsel you need. By speaking with a skilled Volusia County assault & battery attorney, you will undoubtedly maximize your chances of beating your charges and resolving your case successfully.
Although these charges are often grouped together, assault and battery are actually two separate criminal offenses. Assault is the crime of threatening to cause injury or use violence against another person. As long as the victim has reasonable cause to believe that injury, danger, or violence is imminent, a person will be charged with assault. Battery is the criminal act of striking, hitting, kicking, or making some type of physical contact with the victim with the intent to inflict injury or pain.
