Long Island Domestic Violence Attorneys Helping You Win Your Case

Domestic violence cases are usually quite complex. There may be a proceeding in family court, while at the same time, there could be pending charges in criminal court. These separate matters are interrelated, and what you say or do in one case will impact the other.

You need an experienced legal team to execute a well devised strategy to defend for your domestic violence matter. Our team of attorneys is compassionate and knows how to advise you during these stressful situations. We understand that a domestic violence case can impact your life far beyond the courtroom.

At MontanaroLaw, P.C. we offer a free consultation to anyone facing domestic violence or a related charge in family court or criminal court.

What Penalties Can I Face if I’ve Been Criminally Charged with Domestic Violence?

The charges one faces after being convicted of domestic violence vary depending on the severity of underlying act. Some domestic violence cases involve actions that constitute an offense, such as harassment or a simple assault.

For some domestic violence offenses, the court may sentence the defendant to jail time or impose hefty fines. Other cases involve more serious acts that the New York Penal Law identifies as indictable offenses, such as aggravated assault. For such serious offenses, the court can impose prison time, extensive fines, and other sentencing consequences.

Many domestic violence cases result in a temporary order of protection issued by the family court, or by a criminal court, or both. A temporary order of protection is an order from a court directing a person to refrain from making contact with another person, stalking, harassing or otherwise be in close proximity of that person’s home, or workplace.

There are collateral consequences to being subject to a temporary order of protection, such as losing parenting time, temporary loss of your right to bear arms, or administrative difficulties for any professional licenses you may hold. If you have been falsely accused of domestic abuse and face an order of protection, you need proper legal advice from an attorney that understands the magnitude of the consequences you are facing.

What Steps Should I Take Now?

If you find yourself in a  domestic violence situation, contact a lawyer as soon as possible to protect your rights. These matters are quite serious, even if there are no criminal charges yet. These matters develop and quickly advance to trial. The faster you retain competent legal counsel experienced and trained in these cases, the better your chances that the outcome will be favorable to you.

The experienced domestic violence attorneys of MontanaroLaw, P.C.  have handled the investigations and prosecutions of domestic violence crimes in New York, and are intimately familiar with how the prosecution builds their case. This gives us the advantage when building a compelling case for your defense.

Call MontanaroLaw, P.C. at (516) 203-1700 to set up a free consultation today to learn more about putting together the strongest defense possible.
