Assault/Battery

The Cochran Firm

Assault/battery is an illegal act that occurs when:

a person tries to hit or physically injure another person
a person threatens to hit or physically injure another person

Assault/battery is considered “aggravated” if:

a person tries to or manages to cause another person severe physical injury
a person threatens to cause another person severe injury or threatens to use a weapon to cause injury another person

Like all violent crimes, assault/battery charges can lead to devastating legal repercussions is if a person is convicted. This is due to the fact that people who commit assault/battery are engaging in violent behaviors that lead to the harm and maltreatment of others.

All violent crimes are considered serious in the state of Texas and people who are convicted of a violent crime, such as assault/battery stand a great chance of having to serve jail time and paying large fines. Additionally, if the victim of the assault/battery sustained a serious injury, the victim may choose to file a lawsuit against the offender to collect monetary compensation for his/her pain and suffering.
