Battling False Accusations Of Domestic Violence
We take a strong stance to protect clients who face these accusations. Our domestic assault lawyers work diligently to ensure that our clients are treated fairly during these hearings and trials, and that their stories are heard.
It is not uncommon for individuals to be accused of domestic assault because a spouse or parent wants to gain the upper hand in child custody or visitation proceedings. A false domestic violence report can result in the accused individual being blocked from custody or from seeing the children.
Helping Gain You Fair Treatment
Usually, a person charged with domestic assault will be released with stringent conditions of release such as no contact with spouse, kids and will be prevented form returning home or where these persons will reside. Our criminal lawyers will do all they can to work with the client to change the conditions of release if feasible or advise on the best strategy in the circumstances.
Our lawyers will thoroughly investigate the details of the allegations to determine what really occurred. We will also put together the evidence needed to show the court the possible motivations for a false accusation. We understand that the life you've built and the relationship you have with your children are on the line. With this at stake, we will work to make sure that you are protected.
