Our lawyers know just how serious a domestic assault or battery charge is, and will protect your rights throughout the legal process.
Seeking the Best Possible Result to Your Charges
Under California law, simple domestic battery is a misdemeanor and less serious than charges of aggravated battery or intentional infliction of corporal injury. If you have been charged with simple domestic battery, you do not have to have caused injury. Rather, the government must only prove that you used a small amount of force.
These charges can be tried as felonies, and can bring on far more serious penalties. If you have been charged with aggravated battery or intentional infliction of corporal injury and an outright dismissal of the charges is not possible, we will try to reduce your charges to simple domestic battery.
If you have been initially charged with simple domestic battery and a dismissal is not possible, our law firm will have the charges reduced to lesser charges such as disturbing the peace. We will explore every defense. Sometimes these allegations are greatly exaggerated, or even fabricated. In other cases, the evidence simply does not support what you are charged with. Whatever the facts of your case, our law firm will prepare a tenacious, thorough defense to the charges.
