Domestic violence is a most unfortunate circumstance, where household members
or family members are pitted against one another as perpetrator and victim
in cases of
assault,
battery, stalking, and
kidnapping. This crime leaves the victims mentally traumatized and physically injured
and sometimes may even have caused a fatality. As such, these crimes are
considered severe and are met with heavy punishments.
As
domestic violence attorneys, we have seen these types of tragedies used as a method to accuse
someone of violent crimes they did not commit. It might seem unbelieavable
for someone to accuse and charge a person they love of domestic abuse
that they did not commit, however, the reality is that the rate of people
wrongfully accused every year runs around 700,000. You can imagine how
many of those accusations turn into charges and convictions, which means
that thousands of innocent lives are entirely compromised. Get a domestic
violence attorney who has the experience and knowledge to help prevent
this from happening to you!
When a person is arrested for domestic violence, they are immediately under
the harsh scrutiny of the law. They also have to deal with the neighbors
who witnessed the arrest, employers who noticed you did not come to work
for a few days, and the criticism of other family members. This kind of
scrutiny is deserving of someone who has committed this kind of offense,
but if you have been wrongfully accused, this can be nothing short of
humiliating! By hiring a skilled domestic violence lawyer, you can protect
your rights and reputation by fighting the charges and proving your innocence.
Following a domestic violence arrest, you will be prosecuted by the state
attorney’s office and face the harsh consequences if found guilty.
