Baltimore: Domestic Violence Defense
Spouses or parents in the midst of a difficult divorce or child custody situation often find themselves accused of domestic violence or spousal abuse. Domestic violence charges carry a lot of emotional weight in the criminal justice system, and it is important to get immediate assistance from a knowledgeable criminal defense lawyer if you find yourself charged with domestic violence.
I am a veteran criminal defense lawyer with deep familiarity of the Maryland criminal justice system — the laws, the prosecutors (often times in a special domestic violence unit), the judges and the process. If you need a defense lawyer for a domestic assault and battery charge, call me immediately at 410-727-4880.
Defending Against a Domestic Violence Charge
Domestic violence charges carry a lot of emotional weight, but they do not carry higher penalties than other types of assaults. In addition to the usual factors that I evaluate, such as the facts of the case, what do any witnesses say, where did the assault allegedly take place, what if any injuries were there? I look at what is going on with the person's spouse/partner/girl friend/boy friend, etc. What is the motive here? Is the victim credible, etc.?
Every domestic violence charge is different. I take a careful look at every piece of evidence in each domestic violence defense case — and I work with my client to build as strong a defense as possible.
