  • 1. What is considered assault in Ontario?

    Assault is defined under section 265 of the Criminal Code


    It includes any intentional application of force on another person without their consent, or even just threatening to use force. 


    You don’t need to cause injury to be charged — words, gestures, or attempts alone can qualify as assault.

  • 2. Can I be charged even if I didn’t physically hit someone?

    Yes. 


    You can be charged with assault even if there was no physical contact. 


    Threats, aggressive gestures, or causing someone to fear immediate harm may be enough for police to lay a charge. 


    Each case depends on context and evidence.

  • 3. Will I get a criminal record for assault?

    Not necessarily. 


    Many first-time offenders avoid a criminal record through diversion programs, peace bonds, discharges, or even withdrawn charges. 


    Having a skilled paralegal on your side gives you the best chance at avoiding a permanent record.

  • 4. What if it was self-defence?

    Self-defence is a valid legal defence if your actions were reasonable and you were protecting yourself or someone else from harm. 


    We assess all facts — including police notes, video, and witness statements — to determine if self-defence can apply to your case.

  • 5. Can you help if I’ve been charged with domestic assault?

    Yes, absolutely. 


    Domestic assault charges are taken seriously by the courts and often come with strict bail conditions, such as no-contact orders. 


    We’ve helped many clients in domestic situations resolve their charges, avoid convictions, and restore family relationships where possible.

  • 6. What should I do if I’ve just been charged with assault?

    Stay calm and don’t speak to police or the alleged victim without legal advice. 


    Contact our office as soon as possible. 


    We’ll explain your rights, review your situation confidentially, and help you understand your options — often during a free case review.
