Domestic Violence Attorney in Escambia County

 

Your home is a sanctuary, and you may think that nothing could go wrong. Arguments between you and your spouse or significant other can escalate to the point of police involvement. The police may arrive because of a concerned neighbor, or they were called by the other party, but if Escambia County Sheriff’s Office or a municipal police force shows up, it’s more likely than not that one party is going to jail.

If you are charged with Domestic Battery or any other domestic violence charge, you need a defense attorney to comb through the specifics of your case. Assault and Battery on their own are serious charges, but you may face additional charges because you are in a domestic situation with the alleged victim. Determining which charges are valid can be difficult and time consuming. During this time you still have to work and provide for your family. Having a qualified attorney in your corner can mean all the difference in your case.

Century, FL and the rural areas surrounding it can be a quiet place. Many times, neighbors are half an acre or more away, making third party eyewitness accounts less likely. In the court, it’s your word against the alleged victim’s, and with domestic violence cases juries are often naturally sympathetic towards victims. That is why it is so important to have a lawyer that will check every detail in your case and make sure that the charges are actually valid. Many times a case can be thrown out due to inconsistent accounts or other incorrect information.
