Assault Charges in Fort Myers

Assault, which is the threat of violent action by verbal or nonverbal means, is a second degree misdemeanor, while aggravated assault is committed with a deadly weapon but without intent to kill, or if it was committed with the intent to commit a felony.

The penalties for these charges could include:

  • Second-degree misdemeanor assault: Up to 650 days' jail and fines
  • Third-degree felony assault: Up to 5 years' prison and a $5,000 fine

The nature of assault makes it both difficult to prove and difficult to defend; given that the proof of a threat relies primarily on witness testimony, it is imperative that you retain an experienced and knowledgeable Fort Myers criminal defense attorney if you have been charged with assault. In order to be convicted of assault, it must be proven that a threat was made and that it was reasonably viable.
