How Is Aggravated Assault Defined In Georgia?
Aggravated assault in Georgia is defined under O.C.G.A. § 16-5-21. In it, the state outlines it as being an attack on another person with the intent to cause serious bodily harm. Beyond this, it also extends to circumstances that make the offense more severe than a mere assault. A basic assault charge may involve threats or minor physical altercations, but aggravated assault includes things like the use of a deadly weapon, intent to commit a felony, or assault against someone who is especially vulnerable. Firing a gun at someone, even if the bullet misses entirely, can be considered aggravated assault.
This crime is serious, and the state makes it clear—it treats it as a felony. With it come fairly severe penalties, including imprisonment, ranging from one to 20 years. These penalties can be even harsher if the crime involves domestic violence, public officials, or law enforcement or occurs in public places like public transportation or on public school grounds.
If you’ve been accused of aggravated assault, seek the help of an aggravated assault lawyer immediately. There’s too much on the line, and not thoroughly understanding your rights, the legal process or the possible consequences could mean the life you’ve known will be forever changed as the result of your case.
Protecting The Rights Of The Criminally Charged

Whether this is your first appearance in court, or you’ve been through the process before, you need an experienced criminal defense attorney to guide and advise you. An attorney who is going to fight to protect your rights, at the same time working to get you a fair and just outcome.

- keep our consultations confidential,
- work to get your charges reduced or dropped,
- ensure your rights are respected by verifying no evidence against you was illegally gathered,
- question witnesses and gather evidence to defend your case,
- negotiate with prosecutors to seek minimum sentencing when appropriate,
- diligently prepare for trial, and
- provide honest perspectives of the possible outcomes of your case.
Even if the prosecutor’s case against you is strong, we will not give up. We will give you a straightforward picture of your possible end results, so you know what to expect. We will also negotiate to get you the best deal if it’s in your best interests.

Atlanta Criminal Defense FAQs
How long can a felony charge be pending in Georgia?
A felony charge in Georgia can remain pending indefinitely, depending on the specific circumstances of the case. There’s no clearly defined set time limit for how long a case can remain open unless the statute of limitation applies. For most felonies, the statute of limitations is four years, but for serious crimes like murder, there isn’t a statute of limitations at all.
Once charges are filed, cases may proceed slowly due to court backlogs, investigations, and legal proceedings. If your case remains open for an unreasonable amount of time, you have the right to file a motion for a speedy trial.
Can Felonies Be Dismissed In Georgia?
Felony charges can indeed be dismissed in Georgia, but this can happen only under certain circumstances. A prosecutor may drop charges due to a lack of solid and convincing evidence, legal errors they or law enforcement have made along the way, or if they’ve just found the case to have turned out to be weaker than they anticipated. Defense attorneys in Albany, GA, and throughout the state have been known to file motions of dismissal on constitutional violation grounds, procedural errors, and insufficient probable cause, too. In some cases, albeit slightly less frequently, participating in pretrial diversion programs can facilitate dismissal as well.
How Is Aggravated Assault Defined In Georgia?
Georgia defines aggravated assault in O.C.G.A.§ 16-5-21. It is a felony that involves an assault committed with the intent to murder, rape, or rob someone. It can also involve the use of deadly weapons or any object likely to cause serious bodily harm. Shooting at someone, even if the bullet misses, is an example of something that could be considered aggravated assault. Penalties vary but generally include prison time up to twenty years. Harsher penalties are often sentenced when the victim is a law enforcement officer or involved in domestic violence.
Can You Leave The State With A Pending Felony?
Leaving Georgia with a pending felony charge to your name is an incredibly risky thing to do. You may be in violation of your bond conditions if you do. Oftentimes, those accused of a felony may be released on but have travel restrictions imposed as a condition of said release. Court approval is generally necessary in order for any exceptions to restrictions to be made. If this approval is not granted, bond revocation and arrest are very possible—even likely—consequences. Consult with an attorney before leaving the state and risk digging yourself into an ever deeper legal hole.
