It happens more often than people think—what starts as a heated argument between partners or family members suddenly turns into a criminal case. Tempers flare, words are misunderstood, and before you know it, someone is arrested for domestic violence. In these moments, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and unsure of your future.
If you’re facing domestic violence charges due to a simple argument gone wrong, My Rights Law – Criminal, DUI, and Injury Lawyers is here to help. Our experienced domestic violence attorneys understand how quickly things can escalate and are ready to step in and defend your rights.
When Arguments Lead to Arrests
In California, police are required to take domestic disputes seriously. If they arrive on scene and suspect abuse, they may make an arrest—whether or not the alleged victim wants to press charges. Once you’re charged, only the district attorney can decide to drop the case.
But not every argument is a crime.
That’s where having an experienced criminal defense attorney becomes critical. Miscommunications, false accusations, and emotional reactions should not ruin your life, your family, or your reputation.
How a Domestic Violence Lawyer Can Help
A skilled domestic violence defense lawyer can make a major difference in the outcome of your case—often before it ever goes to trial. Here’s how:
✅ Investigating the Full Story
Police often hear only one side. We take the time to uncover the whole truth and gather evidence that may have been overlooked, including text messages, surveillance footage, or witness testimony.
✅ Challenging Weak or False Allegations
Unfortunately, domestic violence laws are sometimes misused in divorce or custody battles. We know how to expose false claims and bring the facts to light.
✅ Preventing Harsh Penalties
If the case can’t be dismissed, we fight to reduce charges, avoid jail time, and keep your record clean through alternative resolutions like counseling or anger management.
✅ Fighting Restraining Orders
Emergency protective orders can force you out of your home and cut off access to your children. We can challenge these restrictions and defend your rights as a parent and a partner.
