Legal Question in Family Law in California

domestic violence charge

My friend was at her estranged husband's house and he was inebriated & pushed her and she turned & slapped him in the face in self defence and in doing so - her nail sliced a large mole on the estranged hubs. face. He then called the police. The police arrested her & put her in jail overnight. The estranged hub. now says that he can take the house & get full custody of their 2 children & won't have to give her a dime. Is this true & what should she do? Thank you very much for your help.

She should retain an attorney to handle these matters. An attorney would need detailed information in order to give any advice that would have value. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
