Domestic violence laws are broader than most people realize. The most common misconception is that these laws apply only to husbands and wives or to intimate partners who live under the same roof. The penalties are more severe than most people realize, too. If convicted of a misdemeanor, you could spend up to a year in jail and face even more serious consequences if you are convicted of another "domestic" offense in the future. A felony conviction, by contrast, could mean up to 12 years in prison and the loss of important civil rights, including the right to own or possess a gun.
Our lawyers have had extensive experience and success defending clients charged with various domestic violence offenses, including:
- Domestic assault and aggravated domestic violence (involving both married and non-married individuals)
- Stalking
- Restraining order violations
Our criminal defense attorneys will vigorously defend you in all criminal proceedings related to these charges. We can present evidence in your favor, call witnesses and challenge other witnesses' testimony. Our goal will be to avoid conviction and the imposition of criminal penalties, or in the alternative, to minimize the damage.
If you've been arrested for any domestic violence-related offense, don't hesitate to contact us to discuss your charges with a dedicated criminal defense lawyer.
