Domestic Violence Charges: Uncovering What Really Happened

Assault and battery charges, especially in domestic situations, often require further investigation. Were you acting in self-defense? Did an angry wife or girlfriend fabricate the entire situation?

At The Oppenheimer Firm, we start our defense by looking at the alleged victim. Did he/she have a propensity for violence? Does he/she have a motive to falsely accuse you? If we find any indication the charges were falsely brought against you, we will fight to have your case dismissed.

Aggravated Battery Of Police Officer

If you are involved in a physical altercation with a police officer, you can be charged with a felony – even when the police officer does not experience great felony harm. If convicted, you will face anywhere from one to seven years in prison, depending on the situation surrounding the altercation.

What would be a misdemeanor offense is elevated to a felony charge when the alleged victim is a police officer.
