Defending Assault Charges

Assault is the threat of violence or force against another individual in order to force a compliant nature.  To put more simply, if you threatened to hurt another person so they will listen to you then you could be charged with assault.  The act of assault does not necessarily mean any physical contact has occurred between two people.  It is the creation of fear in another.  For example, if you create a fear in someone that they will endure bodily harm from you then an assault has been committed.  These charges can result in a felony and require the attention of an Atlanta criminal defense lawyer immediately.  Professional legal representation must be sought so you are able to defend your rights and best interests.
