Domestic Assaults
Domestic assault is one of the most complex areas of law. In these situations, evidence is often lacking, forcing investigators to rely on reports from any witnesses and the individuals involved. If you are being investigated for domestic assault, you may find yourself facing serious charges. For this reason, it is important to contact a qualified attorney as soon as possible.
About Assault
The method used to prosecute domestic assault varies widely according to your jurisdiction. Many of these cases will be handled at the municipal level, as long as the charge involved a minor incident. More serious domestic assault cases are prosecuted at the state level and may be categorized as felonies.
Domestic assault cases are often complicated by their very nature. In many of these cases, the incident will have ended by the time the police arrive. The police must then work to determine fault based on the injuries of the parties involved, as well as the he said/she said information they get from the people on the scene. All too often, the person with the injuries that look the worst will be labeled the “victim.”
