You have asked this question and other forums as well. The bottom line is you absolutely need a criminal defense attorney. The conduct that you describe could easily result in your conviction for domestic violence charges.

The charge of 243(e)(1) is a domestic battery charge. It does not require any injury such a bruise for conviction.

You need a good criminal defense attorney. I'd strongly suggest you find someone who focuses on criminal law and who routinely practices in the court where this case will be heard.

My colleagues offer good advice!. when you say they don't have evidence, they do. If your wife testifies against you, the judge or jury will weigh who is more credible..if you testify.... You physically moved her, you admit to that...enough to convict... get an attorney

Your wife's testimony is evidence. A jury can easily convict based upon your wife's testimony. If you testify the jury will weigh the evidence and if it find's your wife's testimony more credible than yours it can convict. Get an experienced criminal defense attorney!
