Family Violence

False or exaggerated charges of domestic violence (also called "family violence") can occur more often than you think. Police officers in Plano, Dallas, Fort Worth and other cities across the state of Texas are trained to identify the aggressor upon responding to calls of domestic violence or domestic disturbances. This is a difficult task in and of itself, since stereotypes and socialization may taint a police officer's perception of victim and aggressor. After all, police officers are human, too.

This becomes a serious problem when you consider the fact that a police officer may make an arrest without a warrant if there is probable cause to believe there was an occurrence of domestic violence. A snap judgment can lead to arrests based on false or exaggerated charges of domestic violence. These charges may be brought between spouses engaged in messy divorces or couples pursuing a complicated custody battle. The faulty reasoning behind these charges can spell serious problems for your future, especially without the assistance of an experienced family violence defense lawyer.
