I broke up with my girlfriend about 4 weeks ago and she found me on the street and started going in my pockets for my phone that i payed for because we shared a phone plan and i pulled her hand out of my pocket and pushed her away and then i turned around and tried to walk away and then she came back and grabbed the collar of my shirt and yanked it and i have neck problems and she knows thats so it put my neck out and ripped my shirt really bad and she wouldnt let go as shes screaming into my ear and i finally turned around and she ran away again so i tried to walk away again and know that this time she was going to punch me which she had before many times when we argued i turned around really fast with my hand up to block what ever she was going to do and i ended up back handing her and she got a hair line fracture on the left side of her face but she was injured on the face a few years back by a softball that was thrown i was arrested and charged with aggravated assault, simple assault and recklessly endangering another person.

Well it's not going to be cheap but you need a lawyer. Also say nothing to the police. You can avoid jail but it's not something you can do on your own.
