Long Island Domestic Violence Defense Attorney
put a former prosecutor on your side
The police typically take a hard stance with these types of cases and they don't hesitate to bring charges at the first moment an accusation is made, even when it appears there is no strong evidence to support the claim. Cases of this nature are usually very sensitive and involve a lot of emotion.
You need someone who is experienced in handling all aspects of these cases as there is much at stake and the consequences may be far-reaching. Orders of protection may bar you from your spouse, your children, or even your home, and convictions may impact you for years down the road in many areas.
Additionally, our team is familiar with how charges of this nature are handled in specialty domestic violence courts in each and every county. Our attorney can help you learn more about programs the court may require you to attend, how cases are plea bargained, and different types or orders of protection.
Our Long Island domestic violence defense attorney has handled accusations involving:
- Violating an order of protection
- Harassment claims
- Menacing, assault
- Criminal mischief
- Stalking
- and much more on both the felony or misdemeanor level
