Assault & battery charges can range from misdemeanors to felonies depending on factors such as the severity of the injury, use of a weapon, prior criminal history, and whether the incident involved a protected victim. Facing assault & battery charges can lead to serious consequences, including fines, probation, jail or prison time, and a permanent criminal record, making it essential to understand your legal rights and options.
