The Various Types Of Assault And Battery

There are different types of assault and battery that can bring forth a criminal allegation. The different types include, but are not limited to:

  • Simple assault
  • Aggravated assault
  • Sexual assault

In Pennsylvania, the two main types of assault are simple and aggravated. Even the lowest level assault charge can lead to jail time, costly fines and an uncertain future.
