Texas Criminal Assault
An Assault charge in the State of Texas is a very serious matter. You may be facing a jail sentence of up to 20 years.
Additionally, in The State of Texas, even if you receive deferred probation for an assault charge you will likely never be able to get it removed from your record. Depending on the severity of your charge, an assault charge may make it impossible for you to participate in any number of things we take for granted as a part of every day life such as:
- Owning a firearm (even for hunting)
- Obtaining a commercial drivers license (CDL)
- Getting an apartment
- Joining the military
- The right to vote
- The right to serve on a jury
- Getting a government job and in fact virtually any type of job where the employer has a policy of conducting a background check
