Assault

Assault is a criminal offense that occurs when a person willfully causes or attempts to cause bodily injury to another. In North Dakota, assault charges can range from misdemeanors to serious felonies depending on the severity of the injury, the use of weapons, the identity of the victim (such as law enforcement or domestic partners), and whether the accused has prior offenses.

Even a simple disagreement that escalates into physical contact can result in an assault charge. Prosecutors aggressively pursue these cases, often relying on witness statements, medical records, or video evidence. If you are facing assault charges in Minot, Bismarck, Dickinson, Williston, or elsewhere in North Dakota, you need a tough, experienced defense attorney to ensure your side of the story is heard and your rights are fully protected.
