Experience Makes a Difference in Domestic Violence Cases
Most of our clients who were arrested for domestic violence had no idea what to do. They believed that if they cooperated with the police and told their side of the story in an official statement, they would be released and then everything would return to normal. Many have since learned that the first thing they should have done was call a lawyer.
Prosecutors and judges try and “fast track” these types of cases and resolve them, or take them to trial, quickly. While a quick result may be good, you need an attorney who understands these cases and can quickly assess the case and effectively represent you. With our experience handling thousands of these types of cases, the attorneys at Fuicelli and Lee, P.C. are exactly the type of representation you need.
One of the most disruptive aspects of a domestic violence assault charge is having to move out of your home if a “protection order” (also known as an “order of protection” or “restraining order”) is issued. Part of our comprehensive defense strategy may be to fight the issuance of a protection order to maintain your ability to have access to your home, your possessions or your children.
Our goal is to keep our clients out of jail and minimize the familial and monetary consequences of a domestic violence arrest and charge. Domestic Violence cases are about more than just the charges. There are restraining orders, orders of protection, bond conditions, and what may seem like a reasonable outcome may effect your future employment, and negatively impact your rights. You should speak with an attorney who knows how to handle these cases, and who can advise you as to all the possible consequences. Our best option in many cases is to fight to have the charges reduced or dismissed or to seek a plea agreement with a deferred judgment and sentence. Typically, the police and prosecutors will have one side of the story. We can help you get your side heard, while at the same time protecting your interests both inside and outside of the courtroom.
