Many people facing an assault charge ask the question, “Do I need a lawyer for an assault charge?” The answer is a resounding “Yes”. In many cases, there is not enough evidence to prove that an assault occurred. The prosecuting attorney will go to great lengths to convince you that they have the evidence to obtain a guilty verdict.
