Re: domsetic violence

Depends on the severity of the conduct. At a minimum, there are anger management classes, fines probation and a misdemeanor conviction. A conviction can also result in negative immigration consequences. If the level of inflicted violence was significant, we could be talking felony and jail time.

These cases always require diligent and hard working attorneys. Feel free to contact me if you seek to retain a lawyer in Southern California.
