With such a broad range of violent crimes, you do not want to face charges greater than your alleged crime. Attorney Weaver will conduct a thorough investigation into your arrest in order to lower all charges and help you minimize the potential consequences of a conviction.

Domestic Violence

Violent crimes involving family members, children and people in dating relationships, are considered incidents of domestic violence and can carry multiple charges. When the police are called after alleged domestic violence altercations, such as spousal abuse, an arrest will always follow, even if the party that made the call does not want the arrest. Family violence altercations may be a misdemeanor the first time, but can be upgraded due to prior offenses.

Attorney Weaver will help assure your charges are consistent with the crime. If possible, he will work to have the case dismissed.
