Many otherwise law-abiding citizens find themselves facing criminal charges for the first time over an incident that leads to an arrest on suspicion of assault. Some of the types of cases include allegations of the following:
- Domestic Violence
- Fights
- Road Rage Incidents
- School Fights
Domestic violence varieties of Assault can occur between family members and others including mother, father, brother, sister, girlfriend, boyfriend, same-sex partner, ex-boyfriend or girlfriend, significant other in a dating relationship, or mother or father of one's child.
A slap, push, kick, or a pulling of hair occurring in the heat of an argument may lead to criminal charges that cannot be reversed when the complainant says, "I changed my mind." Many spouses and dating couples, after the heat of an argument has passed and they have reconciled, have found themselves in the unfortunate position of having one partner in jail or banned from the house by way of a protective order following a 911 call and a domestic violence arrest.
