Domestic Violence
A charge of domestic violence is not simply an accusation of an assault or a battery. It is perhaps one of the most volatile accusations a defendant can face. Special courts have been set up to deal with domestic violence, special prosecutors generally handle domestic violence cases, and special laws govern domestic violence cases. The odds are stacked against the domestic violence defendant – guilty or not. In fact, in many case, the law permits a domestic violence prosecutor to pursue a case even without the cooperation of the alleged victim.

Through years of experience, we have developed a specialized knowledge of domestic violence law as well as the workings of domestic violence courts and prosecutors. We put this knowledge to work in defending domestic violence cases, ensuring that the volatility of the accusation does not result in the trampling on the rights of the accused.
