I have focused exclusively on criminal defense since I was sworn in as an attorney in 2003. I spent almost ten years of that time as a prosecutor, and I won many awards during my tenure. I handled thousands of cases from the most basic misdemeanors to three strikes, and twenty-five to life cases. Part of that time was as a domestic violence prosecutor in the Family Protection Unit.
When I moved to the defense side of the aisle, one of the main emphases of my law firm became domestic violence matters. Our goal at Premier Domestic Violence Law Group is to use our experience to forge a proven approach that provides the best possible outcome for our clients.
Domestic violence cases differ from most other criminal defense situations because they often involve two different accounts of what happened. There is the accused’s story and that of an alleged “victim.” Finding, exonerating, and showing independent evidence plays a major factor in making someone’s side of the story heard. An approach exists to unearth the evidence to strengthen the defense’s case and illuminate the weaknesses in the government’s case.
This eBook provides a glimpse of our law firm’s proven and proactive approach, which is forged by experience. This method is taught to other attorneys who are learning about domestic violence. The stakes are high in domestic violence cases, and the consequences are evident. Finding solutions to get the best possible outcome is the key.
