Allegations of Domestic Violence

Allegations of spousal abuse can have a significant impact on decisions that are made during divorce. Our firm recognizes that people can often misuse and abuse the laws against domestic violence in an effort to leverage divorce decrees. When a protective order is issued against a person, that person may not be allowed to have contact with the children and may be required to stay away from the marital home.

Protective orders always carry severe consequences for civilian contractors in the military, specifically surrounding the right to carry firearms.

Our firm provides experienced and aggressive defense against allegations of domestic violence. We understand the impact these charges can have on your livelihood and your future. Contact us today to learn how we can help.
