Domestic Violence/Spousal Abuse

Allegations of domestic violence are taken very seriously by the courts. Unfortunately the accused do not always have the benefit of the doubt. This can be extremely unfair to those charged because in most cases of domestic abuse, there are different versions of the truth. That is why it is so important to have an aggressive legal fighter in your corner. Otherwise, if convicted, you may face jail time, a restraining order and a permanent record. In addition, a conviction of domestic violence can even affect your parental rights.

What Happens if I Am Facing a Second Misdemeanor Charge of Domestic Assault?

In the state of Texas, if you have been convicted of a domestic violence misdemeanor, any subsequent misdemeanor charge will automatically be raised to a felony offense.

Should I Try to Sort Things Out With the Police on My Own?

If you have been charged with an assault crime or are being questioned by the police, do not give a statement without consulting an attorney. Many assume if they give law enforcement officials an explanation of the event, things will be cleared up and the charges will be dropped, but this is usually not the case.
