Assault and Battery in Florida

Simple assault is charged as a misdemeanor involving a threat to do violence to another person accompanied by the apparent ability to carry it out which causes the victim to fear that bodily injury may be imminent. You can be charged with this offense without actually carrying out a physical injury. Aggravated assault involves using a deadly weapon with the intent to commit a felony and is charged as a felony. Battery occurs when you touch or strike another person or cause them bodily harm. It is charged as a misdemeanor unless you have a prior conviction, when it is charged as a felony.

Felony battery occurs when you touch or strike another and cause great bodily harm, permanent disability, or permanent disfigurement. When a deadly weapon is used to do this, it is charged as aggravated battery.

A conviction for this type of matter may result in prison time. Whether or not you are convicted will depend on the facts of the case and the evidence presented. Having a lawyer handling your case as early as possible can make a significant difference in how your case is presented, in how it is negotiated, and defended throughout the legal process.
