Protecting Your Rights in Domestic Violence Cases
Domestic or family violence offenses are taken very seriously by the legal system. It is an enhanceable crime in Texas. Second and subsequent offenses can be charged as felonies which come with much more severe penalties. If you have been accused of domestic violence, a protective order can be issued against you before you even have a chance to answer the allegations.
Prosecutors aggressively protect the alleged victims in domestic violence cases and will frequently move forward with the case even when the victim has signed an affidavit of non-prosecution stating that there is no desire to pursue the matter. With such strong opposition against you, be sure that you have an effective defense to match.
