Each charge is a class A misdemeanor. The maximum exposure on each is one year in jail and/or $1000 fine. Instead of jail he could get 3 years probation or a conditional discharge.

Too many variables to answer that question. What was the injury? Does he have a prior record? Can he claim it was an accident? In what county is it pending?
