Long-Term Consequences of Family Violence Allegations
With over 30 years of combined experience and more than 300 trials, M|C Criminal Law has successfully defended numerous family violence cases—achieving dismissals and reduced charges. However, the impact of a family violence allegation can extend far beyond the criminal courtroom.
An affirmative finding of family violence can affect divorce settlements, property division, spousal support, and child custody. It can also impact future relationships, as these findings do not disappear from your record.
Additionally, such findings make it illegal to own or possess firearms, including those used for hunting or personal protection, permanently changing your rights.
Unlike other offenses, family violence charges cannot be expunged or sealed, even after fulfilling probation requirements. These allegations can alter your future forever.
