Bellflower Domestic Violence Lawyer
Domestic Violence Defense
If you have been charged with domestic violence, you will need an effective and aggressive defense. Allegations of domestic violence can be extremely damaging to your personal and professional life, and result in restraining orders that require you to move out of your home and prevent you from seeing your children. The state will also use its extensive resources when seeking a conviction, and will pursue maximum sentencing if you are found guilty of the charges. Even if the alleged victim changes his or her mind and does not want press formal charges, the prosecution can still decide to try the case. If you are convicted, you will be facing harsh consequences that can include many months or years of incarceration, as well as steep fines.
