Domestic Violence Criminal Charges in Maryland
"The Right Man to Keep You Out of the Wrong Place"
The proper handling of the legal process following domestic violence is essential to achieving the best possible outcome in your case. As a victim of domestic violence, you can obtain almost immediate legal protection from abusers through a protective order (often referred to as a restraining order). As a person accused of domestic violence, an effective defense can often prevent:
- The loss of your right to possess and handle firearms
- The loss of your right to enter your home and your property
- The loss of your right to visit your children
- A criminal record
At the Law Offices of Richard P. Arnold we can provide experienced and highly knowledgeable legal help following instances and alleged instances of domestic violence. Firm founder and lead attorney Richard Arnold has handled over one thousand criminal cases as both a criminal prosecutor and as a defense attorney. We are familiar with all aspects of domestic violence law in Maryland and can help you manage important legal complexities. For example:
- We can help victims obtain safety through a protective order before charges are even filed
- We can help accused individuals strategize and handle hearings. For instance, a simple, workable and cost-effective option for many is to agree to stay away from the accuser without being found guilty
- We can work with you to help you regain the right to occupy your own property
- Provide aggressive and effective representation and advocacy in defense or pursuit of domestic violence charges
