- Significant fines
- An order, such as a restraining order, that requires you to stay away from the assault victim
Colorado Assault Law
In Colorado, an assault is any unlawful contact that results in an injury to another person. These offenses can be treated as a felony or misdemeanor, depending on who was involved as well as the severity of the actions. The severity of the offenses ranges from first degree assault (which is the most serious) to third-degree assault (which is the least serious). Regardless of the type of assault involved, an assault charge is a serious matter, and you should consult with an attorney immediately.
From domestic violence disturbances between two well-acquainted people to altercations with a stranger in an alleyway or bar, your defense is only as good as the commitment of your attorney beside you in court. Gasper Law Group is there for you. Visit our Criminal Defense FAQs for more information.

I, unfortunately, was involved with two separate situations within a few years of each other, which left me in quite a bind both times. I was lucky enough to have Caryn assist me in both cases and was absolutely floored with the knowledge and expertise that not only she carries, but the firm as a whole. One of the best, if not the best lawyers I've ever come across. Extremely nice and very honest. I was able to resolve my situations with minimal impact and continue my life without fear of being held back.- Former Client

Caryn Adams and her team are hands down the BEST. I don't think I would have made it through what I went through without her by my side. My charges were dropped and we walked away with all parental rights/custody and a restraining order against the other party.- Avarie J.
