Defense Attorneys For Illinois Residents And Visitors Charged With Domestic Violence

Many domestic violence cases begin with an argument that escalates until someone calls the police. Was there truly violence or physical injury? Or was there just a loud argument that frightened a bystander or one of those in conflict?

Without knowing the answer, law enforcement agents tend to arrest someone based on the original call for intervention.

If you or your significant other – spouse, partner or co-parent face a domestic violence accusation in Illinois, you need to take it as seriously as any other misdemeanor or felony.

Do not assume that because it arose from a private situation and the two of you believe you have resolved it, you could face jail, fines, and a criminal record. All of those could be consequences of a domestic violence conviction. Leonard Trial Lawyers will fight for your rights and the outcome you need to put these legal troubles behind you.

Protect Your Name And Future With Aggressive Domestic Violence Defense

A domestic abuse case often takes unexpected twists. Sometimes, police who arrive at the scene of a domestic altercation arrest both people who have been raising their voices and possibly striking out at each other. They may even see a bodily injury or bodily harm from another unrelated event and use it as physical evidence that domestic violence occurred.

Arguing couples may seek to recant their accusations, to no avail. Once officers arrive, it is a state matter, and they are almost assured that there will be an arrest.
