If you have been charged or accused of committing domestic violence, it’s very important that you retain legal counsel immediately. Domestic violence is one of those crimes that is commonly fabricated by angry, bitter, or resentful family members. Unfortunately, once a domestic violence accusation has been made, it’s very difficult to overcome the stigma associated with such offense, as well as stopping the prosecution and law enforcement officials from continuing to press charges. Even when the alleged victim comes forward and states that they lied or fabricated the truth, many times the police will still conduct an investigation and prosecutors will still press charges.
