Domestic Violence
In recent years, California laws regarding
domestic violence have undergone several changes. The
office of the District Attorney is now aggressively prosecuting
all reported incidents of violence in the home. Today,
such crimes are prosecuted even in cases where the victim
refuses to press charges or recants initial claims of
abuse. In many cases, prosecutors will file charges against
alleged abusers in the absence of victims or witnesses.
The penalties for domestic violence
can range from probation and anger management/Battery
counseling for first-time offenders, to felony charges
and incarceration in severe cases. If you have been arrested
for domestic violence, contact a competent attorney specializing
in this area immediately to protect your rights. David

- Any willful infliction of bodily
injury upon a cohabitant.
