There are a variety of situations that might qualify for domestic violence. Still, each relates to violence or harm inflicted from one person to another whom they are closely related to or intimate with (or have been close with in the past).

Domestic violence does not just include significant physical harm; it can also include emotional abuse, financial fraud, neglect, and endangerment. If you place another individual in a situation that puts them in danger or harms their quality of life somehow, you could be charged with domestic violence. Additionally, any physical contact during a tense moment with a close family member can be charged as domestic violence, even if it involves very little force, inflicts no harm, and is immediately regretted.

At The H Law Group, we believe everyone deserves their fair day in court. Your side of the story needs to be presented with strength and zeal. Our experience allows us to communicate your case in a way that results in the best outcome for you, whether a dismissal or a reduction to a less serious offense such as disturbing the peace or trespass. In addition, we believe in supporting you during each step of the sometimes-overwhelming legal process so that you don't have to navigate your defense alone.

A conviction for domestic violence can go on your record forever. Both misdemeanors and felonies are part of your permanent public record and can be viewed by employers for years after your conviction. If you are convicted of felony domestic violence, you may face years in prison – and you'll have to disclose your felony conviction when applying for jobs and housing in the future. Whether you are convicted of a misdemeanor or a felony, a domestic violence charge will likely affect your custody rights, require jail time and fines paid, and mar your reputation for years to come.

If you face a domestic violence case, a conviction can change your life forever. If you are innocent, your side of the story must be told in a way that proves you aren't guilty, and if you are guilty, the result must be minimized as much as possible.
