Being charged with a Domestic Battery or Violation of an Order of Protection Does NOT Mean You will Be Convicted of That Charge

LOOKING FOR A CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY IN EDWARDSVILLE, ILLINOIS?  OUR FIRM CNA HELP YOU FIGHT DOMESTIC BATTERY CHARGES AND WIN!!

Domestic battery charges are very common.  A new court has been created to deal with the cases.  The court is titled DVAC.  It is an alternate court that monitors progress made on anger management classes which are ordered as a bond condition.  The court requires all persons facing these charges to obtain an evaluation and complete classes. 

Oftentimes the evidence against a person is very weak.  A common fact pattern seen is a husband and wife arguing, the police are called, and the husband is arrested for domestic battery.  Many times the wife is the aggressor who actually caused the incident.  The wife doesn't want to pursue the charges and the evidence collected is very weak.  I push for dismissals in such cases.  I typically obtain a dismissal in such a circumstance.  If the victim has suffered legitimate injuries then the best next step is negotiating the case so a conviction does not enter.  This is common as well. 

The goal to achieve in domestic battery cases is to avoid a conviction.  I have represented people for 25 years.  I have tried many domestic battery cases.  I have never lost a domestic battery case.  I don't try every case but the ones that I identify as weak are winners.  Let me explain how the process works and what I can do for you.  Call me today.  618.692.6520
