Aggravated Battery

Aggravated battery is a second degree felony in Florida. It is when someone causes great bodily harm, permanently disables or permanently disfigures another. A person can also be arrested for this violent crime if they use a deadly weapon while intentionally touching someone against their will. A deadly weapon is one that is used or threatened to be used in a way likely to cause death or bodily harm.

Aggravated Battery on a Pregnant Female is yet another way to charge this crime. It occurs when a simple battery is committed on someone who is with child. The suspect must know or should have known that the victim is pregnant to be convicted of this crime.

“Five stars are not enough for Tori! My partner and I reached out to 3 lawyers in the span of a week. One took 4 days to get back to us, the other we never heard from. Tori had called the day we filled out a form and had done her research before calling. She has been incredibly professional and helpful, and always kept me up to date. She does amazing work!” M.G.
