Domestic Violence, Assault and Battery Charges Defense Lawyer
When charged with domestic assault and/or battery, an experienced criminal defense lawyer on your side is critical. At first, you may feel you have done nothing wrong and do not consider yourself a criminal. However, make no mistake—these charges are serious and if found guilty you will have a criminal record.
A criminal record, especially for a crime involving “violence,” no matter how mild the incident was or how overstated the victims report is, is serious. In fact, it makes you a violent offender in the eyes of future employers, landlords and anyone else who runs a background check on you for any reason.

Defense Against Domestic Violence Charges
A domestic violence charge typically arises in situations where only two people are present. Specifically, the victim, or accuser, and the perpetrator, or accused. This often results in a “he said, she said” situation. In these cases, retaining an experienced lawyer who is familiar with the procedures of both family law and criminal defense court makes a big difference.
Craig Vigodsky takes the time to listen to your side of the story, and more importantly, makes sure that your side of the story is heard in court.
