Defense for Domestic Violence and Disorderly Conduct Charges
Domestic violence allegations are taken seriously in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. If you are involved in an argument or misunderstanding that becomes out of control and the police are called, it is likely there will be an arrest made. If you are pointed out as the alleged offender, you will be the one arrested and taken away.
As a criminal defense lawyer, I have helped numerous clients who were falsely accused of domestic violence abuse or who made a mistake. If you are facing charges, contact the Law Office of Henry S. Hilles, III in Norristown, Pennsylvania. I will work to protect your reputation, rights and freedom.
Domestic Violence Abuse Defense
Domestic violence charges are brought against an alleged perpetrator for engaging in assault, harassment, stalking, intimidation, sexual assault or any activity that causes the alleged victim to fear for safety. At my firm, I provide strong defense to men and women facing charges involving:
- Domestic violence
- Disorderly conduct
- Family abuse
- Child abuse
If you were arrested due to an argument or domestic dispute with a partner, spouse, roommate or ex-significant other, there are serious consequences that must be addressed. An arrest can impact current and future employment as well as access to home and to family.
Protective Orders
When tempers flare and verbal disagreements turn into shoving matches, nobody wins. If you are arrested on a domestic violence charge, it is likely that you will also be served with a restraining order, also known as a protection from abuse order (PFA). This order forbids any contact with the other party, which may mean you need to find a different place to live for a time. It may also mean that you are not allowed to have contact with your children. If you violate your PFA and are found to be in contempt of court, you will face harsh penalties that will include time in jail.
Constitutional Rights
You have a constitutional right to legal representation. Contact the Law Office of Henry S. Hilles, III early in the process to best protect your rights. I will listen to your side of the story and will investigate the full facts of the case to provide you with the best domestic violence defense possible.
