We Can Minimize the Consequences of Domestic Violence Charges
The consequences of a domestic violence conviction can have far-reaching ramifications that affect many areas of your life. Defense attorney Dwight Burton is dedicated to obtaining a successful outcome on your behalf. Our law firm can minimize the consequences of a domestic violence conviction. In addition to jail time, you may be penalized in the following ways:
- Mandatory anger management classes
- Loss of rights to carry a gun
- Inability to return to your home
- Supervised visitation with your children
A temporary protective order will place immediate limitations on your ability to return to your home or speak with your accuser. The temporary order can eventually turn into a permanent restraining order.
Violation of a Restraining Order
Violation of a restraining order can be handled as a Class B misdemeanor — even if the other party consents to the contact. Weapons violations after a restraining order has been issued can be handled as a felony.
Domestic violence allegations and restraining orders can place severe limitations on your rights, freedoms and future. We are dedicated to minimizing the consequences of these serious accusations.
