Domestic Violence Types We Handle
What Happens After an Arrest?
After a domestic violence arrest, events move quickly—and mistakes can be costly.
- Law enforcement may issue an emergency protective order
- The accused may be removed from the home immediately
- Criminal charges can be filed even without the victim’s cooperation
- A court date is scheduled, often within days
- Bail conditions may restrict contact, travel, or firearm ownership
Early legal representation is critical to protect your rights and position your case effectively from the start.
Your Rights After Being Accused
If you are accused of domestic violence, you still have fundamental legal rights.
- The right to remain silent
- The right to an attorney
- The right to a fair and impartial trial
- The right to challenge evidence and witness statements
- The right to due process
Do not speak to police or attempt to explain your side without legal counsel. Statements made early are often used against you later.
Penalties for Domestic Violence in California
Penalties vary based on the severity of the allegations, prior convictions, and jurisdiction, but may include:
- Jail or prison time
- Probation and mandatory counseling
- Fines and court fees
- Permanent criminal record
- Loss of firearm rights
- Restraining orders affecting family and housing
- Immigration consequences for non-citizens
A conviction can impact your career, reputation, and family life long after the case ends.
Legal Defenses We Use
Our attorneys analyze all evidence to build the strongest possible defense, which may include:
- False or exaggerated accusations
- Lack of evidence or inconsistent statements
- Self-defense or mutual conflict
- Improper police procedures
- Violation of constitutional rights during arrest
We focus on exposing weaknesses in the prosecution’s case and protecting your future.
