Have You Been Charged with Domestic Violence in Jacksonville?

Domestic violence is a grave criminal offense that can significantly impact your life. This crime is defined as an assault, aggravated assault, battery, aggravated battery, sexual assault, stalking, kidnapping or any other criminal offense that causes physical injury or death to a family member or household member. As such, it is not surprising that Florida law enforcement agencies take domestic violence charges very seriously.

Restraint from your family or children
Mandatory counseling/therapy
Jail time
Fines

How Our NE Florida Domestic Violence Lawyer Can Help

The first course of action by Florida law enforcement following a domestic violence charge is to place restraining orders against the accused. Once a temporary restraining order is put in place, the suspect will not be allowed to have any contact with or be within a certain distance of the alleged victim. During this time, our domestic violence attorney can act as a mediator between you and the alleged victim.

It is important to take certain actions to help clarify your situation and formulate a high-caliber defense thereafter.

As such, our domestic violence attorney will effectively work with the prosecution and get the following questions answered:

Were there injuries incurred at the time the charges were pressed?
Does the defendant have a past criminal record? (this can prove to be monumental evidence that can get charges dropped)
Has law enforcement been called to the place of residency in the past for similar reasons?
What were the reasons for law enforcement being called to the scene in the first place?

Every domestic violence suspect is unique and deserves a defense that caters to the facts and evidence of their specific case.

To maximize the chances of getting your domestic violence charges reduced or dismissed, our lawyer will take the following actions to build your case, particularly if it involved simple and aggravated assault or simple and aggravated battery:

Research all the available evidence as well as look for evidence that was not initially present in the case
Interview the alleged victim
Find out whether or not self-defense was involved
Investigate alternative penalties if you were found guilty
Build the best possible defense with the amount of evidence they have
