An allegation of assault bodily injury in Fort Worth can be life altering, whether it's an ABI (assault causing bodily injury) charge or an ABI-FM charge (assault causing bodily injury - family member charge).
Both ABI and ABI-FM are Class A misdemeanor assault charges in Texas and carry a punishment range of up to a year in jail and up to a $4,000 fine.
We don't have "battery" as an assault charge in Texas.
A Class A misdemeanor assault in Texas only requires the alleged victim to say they felt pain.
Fort Worth residents who are arrested for controlled substance possession or similar charges face some of the harshest drug penalties in the nation.
It is vital to speak with a Fort Worth drug lawyer right away if you were charged with a drug-related crime.
These are commonly filed as Possession of Controlled Substances cases, but are sometimes also filed as Delivery/Manufacturing of Controlled Substances cases.
Our experienced criminal attorneys will help you fight your charges and work tirelessly to achieve a successful outcome.

Being charged with Driving While Intoxicated in Fort Worth, or anywhere in Texas, does not require an allegation that the driver intended to get behind the wheel while intoxicated.
As a result, DWI charges are common.
Our Fort Worth DWI lawyers have defended individuals from every walk of life who were arrested for a DWI - doctors, lawyers, pilots, nurses, firefighters, barbers, plumbers, even elected officials.
