Domestic Abuse Lawyers: Assault and Battery
Domestic abuse includes assault (Penal Code section 240) and battery (242) of anyone in your household including your spouse, children, parents, or others with whom you live. You can also be charged with domestic abuse of your former spouse, and fiancé or fiancée, as well as anyone you have ever dated. Examples of domestic abuse range from verbal criticism to physical beatings. Once a domestic abuse complaint has been made, the charges cannot necessarily be dropped even if the accuser later recants his or her story.
Battery is the unlawful use of force or violence to injury another person.
Assault is an attempt to violently injure another. An assault is also a threat of violence that causes the victim to fear harm.
