Re: 1st time offense
He is looking at jail time potential. Get an experienced attorney to defend and present the case in the best possible manner. Feel free to contact me if the case is in SoCal.
Re: 1st time offense
First offense status is only important re: sentence imposed and/or plea negotiations.
It is imperitive to have the actor represented by counsel ASAP, yes , even pre-filing...domestic violence cases are extrordinarily serious, and taken so by the DA and Court.
Any of your mentioned crimes have serious direct and colateral consequences ( vandalism causes a loss of CDL) (robbery is a strike) DV crimes have mandatory sentences and terms o fprobation...all are very complex and need to be discussed with the attorney.
