Domestic Violence Can Impact Anyone

Domestic Violence Can Impact Anyone

I have represented people on both sides of domestic violence allegations over the years. In many of these cases I have seen families ripped apart over these allegations. I have also seen what I truly believed were fabricated allegations, often made to gain an advantage in a custody dispute or divorce. There is no simple solution, and we all need to be able to work with the system we now have in place. The right professional advice can make all the difference in the world.

If you or your children are victims of domestic violence, there are many resources out there to help. Obtaining both physical protection and appropriate counseling can be the first real steps to regaining a healthy life for you and your children. Frequently, it is necessary to get protection through the courts as part of this process. An experienced family law attorney can help obtain enforceable court orders to protect you and your family.
If you are being wrongly accused of domestic violence, it is very important to get quality legal advice as soon as possible. Frequently, I see people accused of domestic violence try to “work out” their problems with their spouse or significant other. It is very common for these efforts to result in one or more additional criminal charges. Making the problem worse is not going to help you or anyone else. Getting quality advice can go along way toward keeping your legal issues to a minimum.

Regardless of what side of the issue you may be dealing with, professional assistance will help you resolve your problems. The right legal advice and professional counseling can make a world of difference to you and your family.
