Domestic violence is no longer a private affair to be dealt with solely by the individuals involved. It is viewed as a serious crime by judges and prosecutors who do not need a cooperating victim. Even with a victim who wants to recant their story or drop charges, a defense attorney is critical to achieving a favorable result. A variety of charges can fall under the general category of domestic violence, including assault, battery, false imprisonment, kidnapping, sex offenses and stalking. Domestic violence can involves spouses, but also ex-partners or ex-spouses or elderly residents of your home.

Our goal, as in any criminal case, is to gather all available evidence and provide a strong defense. Our experience enables us to see how to navigate these emotionally charges cases.
