Domestic Violence

Domestic Violence Lawyer

People who attempt to represent themselves against charges of domestic violence often end up suffering severe and lasting consequences. Domestic violence charges must be taken seriously.

Have you been charged with domestic violence or spousal abuse? Has your spouse or roommate taken out a restraining order against you? Please contact a criminal defense attorney at the Law Offices of George A. Gallegos today for a free consultation and case evaluation.

Many people do not realize that domestic violence charges can affect their immigration status. If convicted of domestic violence, you could be deported.

Our criminal attorneys understand the law and how it affects members of our community, including immigrants. We provide legal services in English, Spanish, and Chinese, for your convenience. Our lawyers will aggressively fight any charges of domestic violence or family violence.

A conviction on a domestic violence charge, not only means a fine and probation or jail time. You may lose your job and find it difficult to get a new one. You won't be able to possess a firearm. You won't be able to return to your home if your spouse has received an order of protection. If you are divorcing, your spouse will be given advantageous treatment in terms of child custody. Your future right to see your children unsupervised may also be jeopardized.

When you retain an attorney from our firm, you can be certain that your side of the story will get the attention it deserves.
