Assisting Individuals who are Facing Assault Charges in California Criminal Courts

Pursuant to the California Penal Code, assault is a misdemeanor offense in the State of California. In order to be charged with assault, a person must have attempted to injure another person violently. Words alone are never sufficient under the law to rise to the level of criminal assault. An assault conviction can subject you to significant monetary fines, as well as time in jail.
