Why You May Need A Domestic Violence Attorney To Represent You

October 19, 2015 Posted in Domestic Violence

Have you been accused of domestic violence? Need an attorney to help you?

You may have even been arrested from a domestic violence case. While arguing with your partner or someone else in your family, neighbors could have called the police, and the person that you were originally arguing with may have filed a complaint. However, it is not illegal to argue with someone.

If you believe you are innocent and have not caused harm to anyone, you need to fight for your rights. After all, you are completely innocent until the court system can prove otherwise. In fact, even if you were in a domestic dispute, you may have just been trying to protect yourself because the other person was in your face or attempting to cause bodily harm to you at that moment. You have every right to try to protect yourself if you feel like you are in some kind of danger.

It is important to contact a legal professional to help you with your domestic violence case. You certainly do not want to go at it alone, especially if you do not know too much about your rights. When you do not have the legal advice, you could end up making mistakes that cost you in the long run and cause you to end up in trouble, even though you do not deserve to be in trouble. If you would like to get help immediately, consider contacting the Law Offices of Gary Rohlwing.

Our office is here to guide you through the legal process and make sure that you feel as comfortable as possible during this difficult time. Even though you have been accused of something as serious as domestic violence, it does not mean that you are guilty of the crime. You should not have to receive punishment for something that you did not even do.

The punishments for domestic violence will vary from case to case. However, there are few different things that you may end up having to deal with if you do not have a professional attorney by your side. For example, you may be expected to pay some expensive fines. And, the person accusing you of the violence may try to make you look bad in court so that you end up losing some valuable time with your children.

You could have your custodial rights revoked or changed. If the judge is made to believe that you are a violent person, he or she may require you to see your children at a local visitation facility for supervised visits instead of allowing you to take them on your own. There have been plenty of cases where the individual accused of the crime ends up in jail because they were unable to properly represent themselves in court.

Do not be that person who faces the repercussions because you did not have legal help. The best thing you can do is keep quiet about the case to other people and contact our office so that you can consult with a professional attorney. While you are consulting with the attorney, you can discuss different things about the case, such as when the specific event occurred and why someone is accusing you of domestic violence.

We have the experience that is needed in the courtroom. The best way to end up with an outcome that works in your favor is to have someone who knows the legal system, especially when it comes to these types of cases.
