Los Angeles Domestic Violence defense attorney

Domestic Violence (DV) and Spousal Abuse

In the past, domestic violence was viewed as a private issue to be handled inside the family. Today DV crimes are considered to be very serious crimes with substantial penalties, including lengthy jail sentences.

I am a California State Bar board-certified criminal law specialist in Los Angeles and I have successfully represented clients facing a variety of charges related to domestic violence, including:

  • Assault
  • Battery
  • False Imprisonment
  • Kidnapping
  • Stalking
  • Spousal Abuse
  • Spousal Rape
  • Children
  • Elderly
  • Ex-Partners
  • Terrorist Threats
  • And Others

I am particularly skilled at issues related to immigration and deportation after a DV charge and at the identification of false or retaliatory accusations of abuse for vengeance or personal gain.

My chief goal is the protection of your legal rights and the presentation of a strong defense based on California and Federal law. Prosecutors today do not need a cooperating victim to proceed with serious charges related to domestic violence or spousal abuse.

Don’t Let a Domestic Violence Charge Ruin Your Life

You need an experienced criminal defense attorney with the skills and knowledge to go head-to-head with the prosecution. You need someone who will question and verify all the evidence in order to ensure the best possible, either through negotiation or trial.
