Disputes between people who live together, including spouses, relatives and other roommates, may be considered domestic violence if they erupt into violence or threats of violence.

Federal and State Charges in Domestic Violence Cases

Attorney Danny Frazier and the Frazier Law Firm represent clients on all charges related to domestic violence, including:

• Domestic assault or abuse
• Violation of an order of protection
• Battery
• Sexual abuse

Circumstances surrounding these crimes may also increase the level of a charge or change it from a state crime to a federal crime. If a weapon is involved or if someone is seriously injured or killed, charges and penalties may be increased, including longer jail sentences and more expensive fines. Additionally, if children are present, charges may be enhanced to severe misdemeanors or felonies.

During an investigation in a case of alleged domestic violence, we will look at the circumstances of the alleged abuse and the relationship between the parties. We will also talk to any witnesses and examine any other evidence that could be used to build a defense.

If you have been arrested for domestic violence, there is a defense. At the Frazier Law Firm, we believe that you should never settle for anything less than the complete protection of your rights and that you should always have an experienced advocate by your side.
