Defense Against Domestic Violence Charges In Brevard County

A simple disagreement can quickly turn into a disturbance resulting in a domestic violence charge. In cases between spouses, domestic partners, family members or neighbors, once the police come onto the scene – even if only to address simple misunderstandings – law enforcement officers and prosecutors often seek the maximum penalties under the law.

If you are facing a domestic violence-related charge, getting an attorney is important. There are severe consequences associated with these offenses, depending on the circumstances.

Advocacy When You Are Accused Of Violence Against A Domestic Partner Or Relative

At Goldman, Monaghan, Thakkar & Bettin, P.A., our attorneys have years of combined legal experience. We have handled many different criminal cases involving damaging disputes between roommates, altercations between spouses, same-sex partners or co-parents as well as incidents involving parents and their children. We’ve defended people against charges of domestic violence offenses involving:

  • Assault or aggravated assault of a domestic partner or family member
  • Dating violence
  • Stalking
  • Kidnapping
  • Harassment
  • Criminal trespass
  • Restraining order violations
  • Sexual battery or any criminal actions resulting in the injury or death of a domestic partner or family member

Keep in mind that domestic violence allegations or a conviction may harm your divorce or child custody case, if applicable. You may then be named in a restraining order, banishing you from your home and forcing you to be separated from your children.

 

Pursue An Effective Defense To Protect Your Future

When the police show up, they don’t always know the details of what occurred. It’s possible self-defense played a part in harmful actions against a domestic partner or family member. In other situations, authorities simply have the wrong suspect or the allegations are false. When we defend you, we will not rule out any possible explanation while building your case. Whatever the circumstances, we have the knowledge and experience to investigate the situation and mount a vigorous defense on your behalf.

Call 321-639-1320 to set up an appointment to speak with one of our lawyers. If you have a question, you can also send us an email.
