A Few Consequences of Domestic Violence Charges and Convictions
- As soon as a person is arrested for domestic violence, a no-contact order is put into effect. Even if the other party does not request this restraining order, you will still be required to observe it. Contacting the other party after an arrest is made can result in additional charges, and could cause complications in your case.
- Anyone convicted of domestic violence is banned from owning or possessing a firearm for life. Protect yourself against losing this right by consulting us as soon as you have been arrested for domestic violence. We can help you know your rights and decide on a course of action to fight against the charges.
- Convictions of domestic violence can affect professional licensure. We rely on our previous experience working with professional licensure defense in defending clients against loss of license due to a domestic violence case.
Do not make the mistake of thinking that domestic violence is a minor charge that is easily defended. The authorities and courts take charges of domestic violence seriously. Without a strong defense, the penalties can be severe. Contact us to discuss your situation.
We will refer your case to one of our many contacts in the family law practice if there are issues regarding contact or visitation with children.
Our Salinas office is located directly across the street from the courthouse. We accept Visa and MasterCard for your convenience.
