What’s the Difference Between Simple and Aggravated Battery?
In Florida, simple battery typically involves unwanted physical contact made with the intent to cause harm. While it's usually charged as a misdemeanor, it still carries serious consequences—like jail time, probation, and a permanent criminal record.
Aggravated battery is far more serious. It involves intentionally causing severe bodily harm, using a deadly weapon, or targeting someone considered especially vulnerable. These charges are felonies and can result in lengthy prison sentences, large fines, and long-term damage to your future. If you're facing battery charges, your best chance at a favorable outcome comes from working with a criminal defense attorney who is committed to protecting your rights and building a strong, fact-driven defense.
