Atlanta Domestic Violence Lawyer
You will be charged with domestic violence for any threats or acts of violence toward a member of your household or family. For years many people associated the crime of domestic violence to be violence between husbands and wives or boyfriends and girlfriends. On the contrary, domestic violence can be committed against any member of a household or family, including a sibling, parent, grandparent, or child.
It doesn’t take much for a domestic violence investigation to begin. In fact, of all criminal offenses, domestic violence usually requires the least amount of evidence to conduct an arrest. Unlike other crimes where the authorities will take the time to investigate an accusation before making an arrest, police officers and social workers are quick to make an arrest the moment someone complains of domestic violence. Unfortunately this presents a problem. It’s very common for disgruntled, angry, or resentful family members to make an accusation of domestic violence, even if no such acts occurred. This is why it’s essential for any person charged with domestic violence to consult an experienced lawyer right away.
