Domestic Violence – Domestic Battery Defense

Robert Peddy is a Domestic Violence Attorney – Lawyer, providing professional Domestic Violence and other Criminal Defense legal services in Lakeland, Winter Haven, Bartow, Plant City, Tampa, Hillsborough, Highlands, Hardee, and Polk County, Florida.

Allegations of domestic violence or battery are taken very seriously. When law enforcement responds to a domestic violence call, at least one of the parties involved will be removed from the premises either by request or force by law enforcement. If signs that violence or battery has occurred, the alleged aggressor is often arrested simply based upon what law enforcement has interpreted as who it appears has been the victim.

Often times, the wrong person is arrested, as the other party was the aggressor, and the one arrested for a domestic violence crime was simply defending their self. In defending you against domestic violence allegations it is important to have your story told in a calm and reasonable manor, showing the court that the role you may or may not have played in the domestic dispute did not warrant criminal charges to be filed against you.

Your ability to achieve a successful outcome when facing domestic violence charges is to seek the advice and representation of professional legal counsel. Many times, even when the other party chooses not to pursue domestic violence charges against you, prosecutors often choose to proceed with the criminal charges. Whether this is due to an over zealous prosecutor, political pressure for the district attorney’s office, or to send a message, protecting your legal rights and freedoms is extremely important.
