If the assault charges levied against you are at the second-degree felony level, you may be facing between five and ten years in prison, which comes with a presumption of incarceration—meaning that you will likely face time in jail even if you have never before been convicted of a crime.  Aggravated assault at any level can also give rise to grounds for a restraining order in domestic assault cases, which can impact your freedom of movement and right to see your children, among other potential consequences.
